January Apricity

 The first month of our new year has blitzed past, and I've just learned a new word seen above in the title. Apricity - the warmth of the sun in Winter. 

I started with this picture I took of a Western Jack O'Lantern mushroom on a hike at Quail Hollow Ranch.
I used the app, Percolator.

Then in the app, SnapSeed I added this picture in and added the title.


Here's my One Second Every Day video for January, all 31 seconds of it!

Monthly I-Did List for January

  1. I did the BAM BOM Friendship Star blocks at Sew Day.
  2. I made most of the purplel Flying Geese blocks for the second clue of the Lupine Mystery Quilt.
  3. I stitched a lot of sky on Snake in The Garden.
  4. I did Project Quilting 17.1 and made Clean Cloud for my first finish of the year.
  5. I started and finished  making my Stretching Art & Tradition 26 quilt, Cumulative Spiral.
  6. I found, found the notes for, and began working on May You Ever Return for the BAM UFO challenge.
Well, that's actually quite a lot! January was a month with mostly local traveling happening, except for going up and back to Spokane once again for the medical study. I went hiking with family four times, wow! I  attended both Sew Day and the monthly meeting for BAMQ and took a great 2-day online class from SDA called Soft Circuits. I kept on being pretty active on social media, posted here on le blogue 27 times,...overon BlueSky 40 times, on Flashes 7 times, on Instagram 8 times. Will February be even more active and productive? It could happen...
