Alex is asking all her friends, "What is your word for 2019?" Alex's word is "Create". Capt'n John's word is "Focus" (new website coming on line this year...)
What is your word? Tell us in the comments. It's okay to share or repeat words. (Please keep it family friendly.)

Although I am not a designer, a bit of my quilting soul wants to be one! To release that inner designer, I will occasionally change...or a better word is enhance, a pattern I am working on. I actually like adding a bit of me into the patterns I am working on...it may be as subtle as quilting in a secret message or as bold as adding something to the actual design.
Last week I shared how I personalized candle mats by adding initial charms so the receiver would know I was thinking of them in the creation. It is not hard to add a bit of you or someone you know into the stitching. Whenever there is script in an embroidery pattern I ponder how I might make it more personally special.
As we have been traveling down the road and I have been stitching away on a Buttermilk Basin pattern I wondered how I might make the pattern have a personal statement.
Looking at each pattern that I am gifting for ways to make a design not only the designers creation but also a piece of my "talent"... LOL... Since this sweet mat is going to be gifted, I decided to add their name on the doormat! As simple as that, I have taken a pattern and made it personal!
Stay tuned and travel along with us on Quilt Roadies...where we are connecting one quilter and one shop at a time!!
