Grow Your Blog 2015


It's that time again -- time to meet new bloggers and visit new blogs. If you're new to "52 Quilts in 52 Weeks," welcome! If you're a current follower, welcome back!

Note: I am receiving so many "no reply commenter" comments today! Please, if you think you might be a "no reply commenter," include your contact info in your comment -- if I can't find you, I can't reply to your comment!

Grow Your Blog is the brainchild of Vicki at 2 Bags Full. Visit her blog to view the list of more than 400 blogs, all celebrating today!





About 52 Quilts


"52 Quilts in 52 Weeks" came about when I bragged in July of 2011 that I had made 35 quilt tops so far that year. Elder Son said "hey, that's almost one quilt per week!" And the challenge was on! Could I really make 52 Quilts in 52 Weeks?  Well, yes!  Younger Son insisted "52 quilts in 52 weeks is a great idea for a blog," so Thanksgiving weekend I dipped my toe in the blogging water.

The Younger Son (aka My Little Sailor, currently assigned to the American Forces Network in Yokosuka, Japan) is my tech editor. He updates the blog header each year, and wrote a really touching blog post last Mother's Day. Best of all, he is a professional photographer, so my profile photo makes me look 10 years younger (and 20 pounds lighter!)


UFO Challenge


My favorite posts are the monthly "UFO Parades." Each month, on the first, I post a "parade" of finishes by 52 Quilt's followers. Last year we finished nearly 200 projects! Go here for details, and remember: You are the boss of your quilting!

UFO Challenge


I make a quilt for each of my Mother's great- and great-great grandchildren when they turn 12 (next one will be posted Friday!). Last Summer, I finished my Farmer's Wife quilt for for my brother and his wife to celebrate their 50th Anniversary.


Hats for Sailors


My other "big project" is Hats for Sailors. This group knits hats for US Navy Sailors, and each year we select one or more ships to receive the hats we've knit that year. In 2014, we knit more than 500 hats! My goal for 2015 is to knit 52 Hats for Sailors (nine so far!)

Hats for Sailors.com


There's a Giveaway!


I think the most fun thing about "Grow Your Blog" week is the giveaway. I love sending goodies all over the world -- I've made friends in Australia (Hi! Susan!), Israel (Hi! Debbie!) and England (Hi! Gill!).  This year, I have seven of Miss Rosie's "Schnibbles" patterns plus two charm packs of Bonnie & Camille's Vintage Modern to give away. 


Want to win? All you have to do is:
  1. Comment on this blog post. Tell me if you're a quilter or if your craftiness takes another form.
  2. If you're a no-reply blogger, please include contact info. If I can't find you, I can't send you the prize.
  3. My blog is set not to allow anonymous comments so that the robots cannot find me. If you do not have an ID, you can still enter by email at the address listed under "About Aunt Marti" in the right-hand column of this page and I will post your comment for you so you have a chance to win. 
  4. International entries welcome, of course!
  5. Giveaway ends Valentines Day, February 14 at noon Mountain Standard Time. The winner will be announced on Sunday, February 15.

I didn't quite make 52 quilts in 2014 -- and I probably won't in 2015, either. But it's lots of fun to try, right? Thanks for dropping by!

    My crafty personal project for 2015 is to make my very first quilt! Hoping my tinie tiny sewing machine will be up to the job, and that I will make the time to do it inbetween holding down the day job and the new business I'm trying to get off the ground - i make flower crowns and bridal accessories, (plus daily life :D). Certainly will be popping back for inspiration. Glad to have found you through GYB. x

    I can now call myself a quilter after finishing my first quilt for my granddaughters in December. I am inspired by your 52 quilts in 52 weeks. I usually wait a long time in between sewing projects or do many at one time and then break for a long time. I'm trying to pace myself this year to see how much I can accomplish. Nice to "meet" you. ;)
    (My quilt was done with Scrumptious by Bonnie and Camille. Love their fabric designs and colors.)

    Your son sounds like a handy person to have around! My mother-in-law quilts, so we have quilts all over our house. My husband won't ever let me wash them because some of them were made by his grandmother--so I only use the one my mother-in-law made for me because I can wash it regularly. Okay, now I sound like a clean nut--I just don't know about using a quilt that can only be washed once a year!

    My craftiness takes many forms, the most recent is quilting. I would never make a goal of a quilt a week as my last quilt is still a WIP and going on 2 years. Part of that is the hand quilting, another is that it is a weekend project. I also like to make smaller projects in between, when I have been working on the large ones for too long.

    I am amazed that anyone would even attempt to make 52 quilts in a year! I just finished my very first quilt ever, and it was only a baby quilt. I am sure your work is amazing and what a wonderful gift that is to anyone who receives one of these. A great and precious treasure. I do love quilts and have several that were made by my grandmother which are priceless to me. Also love your hats for sailors... now that sounds more doable. Enjoyed visiting your lovely blog and will look forward to visiting again, as you are one crafty lady! Enjoy all of the fun of this Grow Your Blog party.

    Hi Aunt Marti, so nice to "meet" you on this GYB party. I am one of Vicki's helpers as well- isn't it great fun? So many great blogs to visit. Yes I too am a quilter, it's such a wonderful hobby. I'll be back again for a longer "look around". Thanks for sharing your blog with us! :) And I hope you'll visit me at Stitch Lines.

    Hi Marti, from another Marti. Looks like you have a lot going on. 52 quilts in a year is an ambitious project. Did it ever feel like a chore instead of just a goal? I hope I am not a no reply blogger. I think I set it up right, but with wordpress, it's a little harder. Same with followers. I'm pretty sure I followed right, but my photo doesn't show.

    Happy to see a quilter in the GRB party! I love quilts! I have not made one that is finished yet. I have started one for my daughter and just have the top made, minus the border fabrics (which I still need to have her help me shop for.) Hers has fabric with pinks, purples and greens, with princesses, crowns, and frogs. I hope to take some classes for quilting (and using the sewing machine better) someday!

    I would LOVE a chance in your drawing!!
    Blessings, Jessica

    Hello there Marti. I'm so happy to meet you thru the GYB. I'm not much of a quilter but have recently done a very sweet, (and simple), quilt. I used squares which I cut from the skirts of my late relatives, (2 aunts, grandmother, and mother in law). I made two small lap quilts for my two daughters to remember their heritage. I'm proud to say that they actually came out really nicely. I do collect old thrift shop quilts and, as long as they were made by hand, I repair them for myself and love them for a few more years. I'm also long winded when I leave comments...lol. Off now to figure out the best way to follow you. Thank you so much for helping Vicki with the hop.

    I am a "piecer". Is that a word? I piece quilts and usually have others quilt them, unless they are baby quilts or mini quilts. My first quilt was a 9 patch. I was 10 years old and went around the neighborhood asking for fabric. My mom taught me how to hand piece it and my dad built a frame in our basement. Our whole family quilted, my mom, dad and even my two older brothers (who were later in the Navy) quilted. I still have the quilt and it is 52 years old.

    Very honest about not making the 52! The quilt for the 50th anniversary looked gorgeous. I don't quilt myself, always sucked at precision, but cross stitch and knit so not that far out. I always wanted to try my hand at the hand stitched quilting (there was a proper technical term but I don't remember it at the moment). I own about 5 books on quilting yet haven't braved it yet. There is always next year! Anyhow would love to enter and come by my giveaway.

    I'm both! I get into all kinds of art projects and am always trying new mediums. I got hooked on making quilts in the past year though. I've always loved the colours and textures and pattens in quilts and I loove making them for people.

    I use to do all sorts of craft projects and garment sewing but now I have migrated to quilting only. Quilting takes up a lot of time.

    I am a quilter and have a renewed interest in cross stitch too. I enjoyed seeing all those finished quilts in your later posts.

    I've been interested in quilting since 1976 when I was in high school. Started quilting shortly after and now that I'm not working have been quilting as much as possible. I completed 13 quilts last year. My goal is to finish a lot of UFO's in 2015 but just in January have created 3 more quilt tops. Guess I'll add them to the stack. ;-)

    I am a quilter and crocheter, but also have interest in many other arts. Last year I've finished 11 quilts, but these year in January I've completed 3 and working very seriosly on no. 4.Maybe in 100 years I would reach 52 quilts in a year.

    I quilt and sew, although lately I've mostly been quilting. I also knit, crochet, and cross-stitch.

    I am a "sometimes" quilter who's been dabbling at it for about 4 years. I don't sew very much but love it when I do - so I'm going to change that in 2015. I would love to win this giveaway and finish some UFOs - 52 quilts in 52 weeks is an inspirational blog! thanks!
