Happy New Year! I hope your 2025 is off to a wonderful start. I spent the holidays with my daughter’s family in Texas. It was very relaxing and so much fun spending one-on-one time with my 4-year-old grandson. During those moments of relaxation, I reflected on the good and tough times of the past year and the lessons I learned from those experiences.
As I look ahead, I am setting new goals, one being posting here on my blog regularly. By nature, I am an extreme introvert, quiet and reserved, preferring to spend time alone or with my family. However, being an introvert is not the best formula for growing an online business!
Like most quilters, I have an enormous scrap stash. My first goal for 2025 is to use those scraps to make more functional fabric gift ideas.
Mug Rug/Coasters are my favorite small quilty things to make. I made 10 (ten) mug rugs this past holiday season and donated them to a local rehabilitation center for seniors, and they were very well received by the patients.
Below are three new mug rugs I have listed in my shop. If you have a moment let me know what you think. This brings me to goal #2 for 2025, I plan to gift a free mug rug monthly to one of my email subscribers.
If you want to be the first lucky winner next month, please subscribe to my newsletter using the form here. I promise to only contact you once a month, with new products and special discount codes to use in my shop!
I would love to hear from you – how has your new year started? What are your plans for 2025?
Until next time…craft the life you love ♥
