I started my blog four years, late on a Friday night, so I could have a chance to win a prize. 😊 There wasn't even a single photo in my first post.
This continues to be a wonderful adventure of learning new things and making new friends.
2018 is my year: my car will be paid off in June; mortgage paid off in July 🙌; turning 50 in July; going to India in September to celebrate; and going to Sewtopia Boston in November.
*Giveaway*
Leave a comment telling me something exciting that's happening for you in 2018, or something you're looking forward to trying in 2018. I'll randomly draw four names at the end of the day Sunday, February 25, 2018. I have four patterns to give away: two from Jaybird Quilts, one from Lazy Girl Designs, and one from Patterns from Jean Boyd.
Thank you to everyone for your comments on my blog, for your great advice, and for providing me wonderful opportunities. It makes this adventure so much more fun. I can't wait to see what the rest of 2018 has to offer.
Congratulations on your blogaversity Anja, tell me, did you win a prize? It sounds like you have so much to look forward to this year, I hope it is all you dreamed of. I started this year with two weddings to look forward to, my stepdaughter was married earlier this month but I still have my son's wedding to look forward to in May. His fiancee is the most beautiful girl and the perfect choice for him, I am so happy she is becoming part of our family.
ReplyDeleteMarch is exciting! 2 quilt shows and spring break. Yup, I’m counting the days
ReplyDeleteWhat an exciting year you have in store! I'm starting the 15 year journey of mortgage paying as you're ending yours! 😊 Moving into the house is the big thing for me, the rest of the year is unplanned for now!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your anniversary and what a year you have ahead of you. I am so excited to be going to Melbourne (Australia), from New Zealand, to meet up with some of the women I went on retreat with to Bali last July. Even more exciting is today three of us booked to go on a 14 day Java retreat next July with the same organiser. Soooo... excited.

ReplyDeleteCongratualtions on your blogversary Anja. You just reminded me that It's my blogversary around now as well, and I think it's also 4 years! So I guess I better have a give away as well. I'm looking forward to a little more me time.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on all the great things coming your way this year. My house will also be paid off this year in August. What a short 30 years this was. I will be turning 60 in September this year. I can not believe how fast the years fly by.
ReplyDelete2018 is definitely YOUR year, Anja! Congratulations, and happy blogaversary! For me, it’s just another year. I’ll be excited if it passes quietly, stays positive, and doesn’t 'fly by'! XO

ReplyDeleteCongratulations Anja on your Blog Anniversary! Thank you for sharing your experiences with us. My exciting adventure will be attending my very first Quilting Retreat (SWOMOD) in April. I am already planning what I want to take with me to work on.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your anniversary and getting your car and mortgage paid off this year. More $$ for fabric. I am coming home this September so I’m excited about that.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your writings. I cannot write so I just read and quilt. In 2018 I'm making the squirrel by Laura Heine.
ReplyDeleteI'm looking forward to a new great granddaughter and Spring!
ReplyDeleteHappy Anniversary on your blog! So cool! This year I'm looking forward to lots of sewing and quilting. I learned how last year and I am still "collecting" quilting supplies! It is so awesome to quilt! Have a great day!! angielovesgary2 atgmail dotcom
ReplyDeleteHappy 4th Anniversary!! Oddly enough I too will be going to India and Sewtopia in Boston. I am very excited and looking forward to adventures with one of my favourites travelling pals.
ReplyDeletefrom and ex-Scotian, congratulations to you on your blog anniversary, on your 50th, and all things nice that you'll be doing. I'm looking forward to a retreat at the end of April in VT and perhaps a local retreat the 3rd week of March. Most importantly, our family will be celebrating in August at the Bar Mitzvah or our second grandson. Happy times ahead!
ReplyDeleteHurrah for such a great year, Anja. The mortgage part will be especially exciting!
ReplyDeleteSadly, I cannot think of anything. I just started a new job, so I cannot count on having much leave for a while.
Congratulations on your anniversary. This is the year I am going to try ruler work so that I can complete my own quilts
ReplyDeleteHappy, happy blog-iversary!
ReplyDeleteWell I missed the party but hearty congratulations to you! Here's to four years, another four years, and a fabulous 2018.
