2013 has been all, full of exciting things, yet too has down moments
Non quilty stories first:
Down moments : My lab was closed almost the whole year slowing down my study progress, my father in law got into a coma after an accident in June and still is in coma (your prayers are so much appreciated) and when we moved to a new rented house in february, our house was flooded and the carpets ruined.
Exciting things : My hubby got a day job, my son everyday has some fun things to make us laugh, forget heavy stuff and remind us how greatful things are. My lab reopen in October – and I hit the two year mark of PhD journey. I am already on my third year! (*don’t know whether this is good news or not * haha*)
Well, enough of life stories, lets get on to reviewing crafting things I did in 2013

Such lovely projects completed, and lots more to come in 2014.
Hi Amira I’ve just stopped by your blog for the first time, and I love it! Such beautiful quilting and stitching! I will try and come back often. Happy New Year!

What wonderful finishes and WIPs! I wish you a happy new year and hope the best for your father in law!
Enjoy your new machine! All the best for 2014!
Amira – I just found your blog. You certainly accomplished much during a stressful 2013. I had a very trying year, also. I am glad to be turning a page to a new year. I am still recouping from surgery on both my eyes in late November and hope to be able to quilt and do other crafts again. It’s difficult to thread a needle with double vision. I love your granny squares. I wish I could find a pattern for them. I’ve made granny squares before and they are very, very plain compared to yours. Thanks for posting and all the inspiration. Sending prayers for your FIL. Wishing you Peace in 2014.
Wow – that is a busy year – I love your projects!
