Selfish sewing plus changes for Hoppi Quilts

So you may have noticed my new button on the right side of the blog. Selfish Sewing Week is coming September 2013 and I am super excited.


 During this week I will most likely be finishing up decorations and our guest book quilt for our wedding, which we've decided to move up a whole year! That's right folks, May 10, 2014 I will be Mrs. Hatton! I can't wait, can you tell???

 So here's the deal with the changes to the blog. I need to be more motivated to quilt and blog, so I'm making some theme days to share with you, my readers! They are as follows:

Tutorial Tuesday: At least one Tuesday a month I will be posting a tutorial of some sort. Quilting,    sewing, crafts, and even cooking! This Tuesday there will be a tutorial on these awesome blocks!





Wedding Wednesday: On Wednesdays I will share with you the progress of my upcoming wedding! The entire wedding is going to be DIY so I will share my linens, center pieces, and decorations and how I made them! 



Finish/FMQ Friday: Over the next few weeks I will be finishing a lot of projects, as well as doing a lot of FMQ (free motion quilting). So I will share with you what it is I have finished. Today, even though it's Sunday, I will share the ring barer pillows I made for a friend of a friend who is getting married in August. 







Anything goes Sunday: On Sunday's I'll write whatever comes to mind! It may not have to do with quilting, but will still be a fun read!


I have also recently been experiencing technical problems with blogger, and will be switching from blogger over to my own platform. This will be quite a long process as I already began the switch two weeks ago and am no where near a quarter finished! You will be able to find my blog at hoppiquilts.com under the blog tab!

Today I linked up with Can I Get a Whoop Whoop.

I'm so excited about all these awesome changes, and I hope you are too! Enjoy the rest of your weekend! 

Quilt on,
Hoppi

  3. Wow - that's a lot of changes! Good luck with the switch over and remember - don't let your blogging schedule run your life! It can get overwhelming if you feel like you have to post a certain number of times a week....

    Whoop whoop for a moved up wedding date!!

  4. Neat! I'm looking forward to seeing what kind of wedding stuff you make. I do expect something totally nerdy by the by....

    Platform changes are hard, but totally worth it. It's really working out for me, but is a TON of work in the background. I've finally worked out my local dev environment so I expect it to be EVEN more work customizing it. :)

    Can't wait to see it all come together!

    1. Haha, I don't know how nerdy we're going, you may be disappointed. We're having a super nerdfest honeymoon in Japan though ;)

      The change is a bit rough, but I'll get it figured out soon enough. I've been having a lot of issues with blogger and after what happened with you I don't even want to use them any more!
