Red, white, and blue rail fence quilt has begun. Should be...interesting. I think I may either need to get some more material for the borders, or settle for it being ~60"x80", instead of the humongous quilt I want it to be.
I signed up for a quilt-along at ps. i quilt blog. It's a 'postage stamp' quilt that will apparently take 4 weeks and is suitable for everyone from beginners to experienceds! Plus, if you finish the top by the end of the time period, you go into the draw to win gift cards from the Fat Quarter shop! *entices*
Since I'm doing so much quilting this year, and following blogs and all, I've activated a google blog and a flickr account to keep up with it all. I'll still post projects here, though!

Scrap soup quilt: This looks actually reasonably simple when you get down to it. And you could piece it together from scraps over the course of years. YEARS!
Fantastic scrappy quilt at Quiltsville blog. (Only, good grief! Lookit those seams! So many of them! And I don't like the yellow so much.)
Also: Chinese Coins seems like an unspeakably easy quilt pattern to make. Except my brain looks at it and thinks "that's just columns: bor-ing!" And then wants to put them on the diagonal or something crazy like that. And it just occurred to me that I could use the remnants of the yardage from Shaz's quilt for a pink-and-gold Chinese Coins! (Now wishes she'd gone and bought more yards of that lovely white-on-white she found at Spotlight last week...)
