Quilty 365 January link up

This is the first day of my new project:
Grab button for http://quiltyfolk.blogspot.com/

to create one block per day by appliquéing a circle onto a 4½" neutral block.  And to stick at it for ONE WHOLE YEAR!


I wan't entirely sure about using neutral, and have decided since the above photo to change to different coloured backgrounds. So here is my new first block, prepared and ready to go.



Another first is I shall be trying my hand at needle turn appliqué. I don't have any hand-sewing on the go at the moment, so this will be a good project for the evenings.

Why don't you join the growing group of quilters on this project? The great thing about this project is you can start whenever you like, just keep going for a year.

Pop over to the linky-party now and see what the others have been doing.

Nice to see more people joining in - this project is a lot of fun. Your first circle looks great; I think the blue looks better too.
