Quilt Doodle Blog Hop, 2015 Quilt Alongs, a finished block, and a BAD group

The 2014 Quilt Doodle Doodle BOM Blog Hop is Coming! 
Here's the Hop Schedule:
January 24th 
January 25th 
January 26th
Jill - Hosted by Quilt Doodles
 Since I forgot how these hops work, I already posted about my completed Quilt Doodle quilt, but luckily, I have another quilt in process for the same BOM that I'm going to work on so hopefully I'll have something new to show you on the 24th.  I'm looking forward to seeing all the hard work and everyone's special touches!

Are you joining any quilt alongs for 2015.  I loved the ones I participated in last year.  Here's my list:
1. Shannon at Modern Tradition-- Charm Square Sampler quilt along
Charm Square Sampler Quilt Along 
2.  Cathy of A quilting Chick --The Not so last minute Christmas Quilt Along
3.  Kristie at Quiet Play's Zoo Animals

4.  Fat Quarter's Snap Shot quilt along

Here's my first block for the Charm Square Sampler Quilt along.
I'm using some fabrics I have and some squares from a Josephine-- French General Layer Cake, which I then cut into 5" charm squares.  .

Lastly, have you heard about the BAD group?  Amanda, the Patchsmith, has started this BAD group (block a day).  Isn't that a good bad idea?  I think so!   Flicker page here.

wow you have made a lot of commitments this year. I've joined in POD with Fandom in Stitches. Its paperpieced - one a week for 30 weeks. 2 weeks into it so far and I've kept up... but for how long. LOL. All the best with your projects

I've only joined one quilt-along in all my years of blogging. I'm trying to remember now if it was a real quilt-along or just a bunch of different blogs that posted a different block pattern every day. I did the first few and then realized I was out of my league so I just saved the rest of the patterns for another day.
