Best of 2019

There are alot of ways to tell the story of a year, #best nine and #colouroftheyear being just two of them. Cheryl/Meadow Mist Designs once again gives us the chance to declare the Best of 2019 with her annual linky party by sharing our top five blog posts of the year. As is my tradition, I'm choosing to base my 'best' solely on reader views, though this year, let's go in reverse order.

#5B. Scrap-ish Plaid-ish
This one is actually a tie with 5A, believe it or not. I love that a quilt made the list and yet a bit amused it's a scrappy one. But I'll take it. Plaid-ish is a free tutorial shared by Erica/
@kitchentablequilting and a great one for working through one's scrap basket.

#5A. Summer Sampler 2019 :: Spring Fever
There were 21 blocks included in this year's Summer Sampler, and Spring Fever was the first. Designed by Lynn Carson Harris, it taught us how to twirl seams to increase accuracy.

#4. QuiltCon 2019 :: The Quilts
Fun to see a QuiltCon post on the list, especially when it included Leanne/@shecanquilt's "Smile" which won Best in Show.... a proud moment for our Bee Sewcial bee!

#3. The Latest Set
Inspired by Jayne/Twiggy & Opal's Log Cabin Pot Holders tutorial, this pair was made just last month, another project made straight from the scrap basket.

#2. Pieced Batting
A simple trick is usually the best, so I'm not surprised my readers wanted to check out this tutorial. 

#1. 10 Ways to Make a Quilt Back II

Actually an updated version of 10 Ways to Make a Quilt Back from 2017, this compilation of ways to create a quilt back really is a terrific resource, even for me! 

So that's what my readers thought was 'best' here on the blog. Though the blog may primarily be a place for me to share my own work, it obviously is also a place folks look to for inspiration and tutorials for their own creating. And I'm definitely good with that!
