Best of 2025

Each year, Cheryl invites bloggers to join the best of year link-up and share their 5 best blog posts of  the year and we get to define what 'best' means! It is hard to narrow things down but these are my favorites from 2025 listed in no particular order.

Favorite Make

I wanted to make a new queen sized quilt for our bed for awhile. I was very happy with my finish - a modern twist on a double wedding ring quilt. Read more.

Peachy Keen in Make Modern Magazine

Peachy Keen was my entry for the Pantone challenge. It was a fun quilt to work on and I was thrilled that it appeared in Make Modern magazine. Read more.

Favorite New Obsession 

What fun it was to make all these colorful granny squares and join them together. However, burying all the threads was not fun at all and in fact there are a still a few to go even though the blanket is getting lots of use. Read more.

Favorite Quilt Exhibit

It was such an honor to have my quilt selected to be part of a Modern Quilt Guild exhibit at the Virginia Quilt Museum. Read more.

Favorite Quilting Event

QuiltCon Phoenix was memorable in so many ways. I had two quilts in the show - Island in the Sky and Arcturus - which was awesome and I got to spend time with my sister! I took a class from Kitty Wilkins (Quilt Your Life) which was awesome. And I got to see so many old friends and make some new ones - - the Best Bits.

I enjoy participating in the link-up each year even though it is always tough to choose just 5 highlights.  You can find my previous yearly top 5 here: 2024, 2023, 2022, 2021, 2020,  2019,   2018,  2017, and 2016.

Have a wonderful day! Patty
