Too many projects!

I have been on a bit of a project starting kick lately! I chose patterns for the kids sweaters for this fall/winter, and of course, I had to start right away (since it will take me several months to get them done!).

Kindling Season for Samantha

A Sanctuary for Baby for Baby Boy

Korrigan for Ellie

Grow old with me for Ben

I also have been working on some new class and shop samples as well. Hoping to knock these out so I can start the baby's blanket!

Hitchhiker Scarf

Aranami Shawl

Cabernet Hat

Sock Sample

Gelsomina Aran

And finally, yarn for the baby's blanket - now to get time to start it!

Lucky Stars BOM

This winter I saw that Elizabeth at Don't Call me Betsy was doing a paper pieced block of the month club. And it was stars - I love stars in quilts and had been wanting to do more paper piecing. I signed up and then dithered over fabric choices for two months! I was trying to decide if I wanted all of the stars to have the same color theme, or to be unique. I did finally decide that I wanted to use text prints for the background of the stars, and then decided to follow her suggested colors for the stars. I did make my own choices for the March block and I really like the way that one turned out.

Now I have to figure out how to store these and the BOM my guild is doing. I don't have a design wall (or space for one) so I need a storage solution that won't result in mangled blocks by year's end. Any suggestions?
