2014 Sew Along Galore

It is that time of the year again. Not the eat too much time; but the new quilt for the new year time.
It seems that there are plenty of new projects to tempt everyone.
The very short list I made just now, includes new sew along from:
. Quilters Newsletter magazine: this one has started and it is a beautiful star quilt.
. American Patchwork and Quilting: it will start with the January/February issue that is already on sale.
. Pat Sloan has a free quilt pattern that will be a block of the month. "Globetrotting" will
star in January. http://blog.patsloan.com/page/4/
. Sentimental Stitch will also have a 25 months sew along starting January 1st. It is an applique quilt called "The Benjamin Biggs Quilt." It will be under the "just takes 2" site. Go to sentimentalstitches.net and take a look at this great applique quilt.
. Bonnie Hunter has her mystery quilt called "Celtic Solstice" going on. She usually keeps her patterns on her blog for a few months. So it gives you time to think about it and also see the complete quilt before you decide to make it.
Many other blogs have new sew along projects starting also. Many are free; but others have a fee.
Way too many to list. Just enough to keep one away from the sewing machine and glued to the computer screen.
Better get back to pins and needles now.
Many happy "starts!"
