Best of 2015!

Cheryl @ Meadow Mist Designs (you might know her from the Mystery Quilt series she's done the past two years) is hosting a fun end of year link up - Best of 2015.

The link-up is designed to showcase a blogger's posts with the most views or comments, best tutorials or finishes, or even one's just plain favourites. Here's my Top Five Countdown!

#5. Meet Maritime Modern Blog Hop

Why a blog hop post? Well, this one was my brainchild and it allowed me to get to know some of my Maritime Modern Quilt Guild pals even better! If you're new to my blog, it's also a good post to get to know me a little better.

#4. Good Old Hockey Game

Even though I completed this quilt in 2014, I didn't manage to blog about it until July. To date, this is my blog post with the highest number of views... for all time! It was such fun to have my nephew, J-Boy, helping me with this quilty photo shoot.

#3. For the Love of Sewing

This finish represents an entire year of new skills and pushing my limits - appliqué, tiny pieces, a tonne of new FMQ patterns, and my first QAYG quilt. It's a doozy! My fingers are crossed that this year will see the Skill Builder 2015 BOM revived and that I'll have a Technicolor Galaxy finish to show off!

#2. ALYOF - September

Participating in A Lovely Year of Finishes has been a great motivator for me this year. I've set and achieved goals in all 12 months (this month's post is yet to come). If there's 2016 edition, I'm probably in!

And in the top position...
#1. Throwback Thursday

One of my quilty goals for this year was to start my own link-up. Up until now, it's been a private goal, but there's no harm in sharing it now. ☺ I made that goal a reality back in August, when I started Throwback Thursday - a celebration of quilts from our dark quilty pasts! It's been fun to revisit projects from my days before blogging. Perhaps you'll even join me for {Volume 6} on Thursday, January 7th.

How about you? If you're a regular reader, I'd love to hear about a post you enjoyed that didn't make my Top Five! And if you're a blogger, do you have a Top Five posts of 2015? Why not collect them up and link-up with Best of 2015 @ Meadow Mist Designs?
