Quilting dreams

There are so many quilts that I want to make.  Someday, I intend to appliqué a Baltimore Album style quilt.  I also want to make a Drunkard's Path and a Railroad.
This is Railroad (very similar to Jacob's Ladder).  I already have blue and white fabric for it.

I also want to play around with more string quilts.  I have a few interesting ideas.

Over the last year or so, I have received several boxes of old quilt magazines, from various friends.  Some date back to the late 1970s.  Going through them has been great fun.  I do it at my leisure.

As I go through the magazines, I cut out pictures, patterns and articles of quilts I want to make, or tips I find helpful.  I have one notebook for appliqué, and one for pieced quilts.  I suppose this feeds my inner librarian!

At any rate, it does help me keep my quilting space in some order.

I am more than half way through the 31 Day Blog Writing Challenge!
