Have a happy New Year Alycia, thanks for the weekly linkup. The fabrics are very nice but please don't include me in the drawing. I don't need anymore! Happy stitching!
The only New Year day tradition in my family is for dinner to eat collard greens, blackeye peas with rice or Hoppin' John, but of course, cornbread also goes great with that. Happy New Year!
In the Netherlands, we make deep fried battered apple slices (beignets) and eat them with powdered sugar.
Please dont send me any fabric ! but my NYDay tradition lately is to go to the Texas Roadhouse for dinner, it is our anniversary day but this year 2020 we ended up at the Emergency Animal Hospital for Kelsey, she was there for a week and it cost more than my sit down quilting machine!
We visit with friends and play games on New Year’s Eve. We watch the countdown on TV and wish everyone a Happy New Year! On New Years Day we celebrate our grandson’s birthday!
Wow!! Are we going to get a tour of the pared down stash? It looks like you are really making a dent in it!
Such yummy colors! We watch football on NY day; we are big Univ of Michigan fans and usually they are in a Bowl somewhere. We won't be watching them this year though!
1st tradition is New Years Eve when we lay in bed about 10 at night and wish each other Happy New Years cause its midnight somewhere.....
2nd tradition is New Yeas Day when I ask whoever we are sharing the day with to give me one word for the New Year... Not a resolution but just one word to work toward...
Last year was completion / complete for me... Other years have been Notice, Share, Renew.... This year I am thinking Maintain might be the word.
Collard greens and black eye peas.
Happy New Year, Alycia! That's a fun bundle! We don't have a NY Day tradition, per se! We eat more than we should, we never party the night before, if there is football, we watch....oh, and the Rose Bowl Parade too!
On NYE we always eat Chinese food. It was one of the only restaurants around when we first got married and my husband is a big traditionalist! Sometimes we eat out and sometimes we order in. We are not big party goers on NYE. I won last week but I'd like to submit my friend's name to win - Allison Bayer.
We make a puzzle, watch football games and eat all the left overs we had all week! Thank you!
On New Year's Day, enjoy watching football with husband and if I have some extra time, sneak off to the quilt room to work on Quilts of Valor or quilts for family members, Happy New Year Alycia

Every New Year's Day we have 13 Bean Soup and Cornbread. Our parents always
ate blackeyed peas and collards, with some kind of pork....this is the usual Southern tradition of collard greens for greenbacks and peas for pennies....I always liked the peas but never ate collards. So we have ham at Christmas and save the hambone for the 13 Bean Soup. Our adult son comes over and enjoys a bowl or two with us!
Happy New Year to everyone!
I like to stay home and sew/embroider. At the end of the day sit in front of the warm fire & watch the Ball fall in in New York City!!!!!

We don't have a New Year's tradition here beyond sleeping in later than usual (due to staying up til midnight!). We'll turn on the TV to watch the New Year's parade...wonder if that will still happen this year? It's a laid back day here. We might take down the Christmas tree and indoor decorations, too.

We start the day with a nice hike weather permitting. I spend the day sewing and my husband watches football. Win win.
We have pork and sauerkraut for dinner for good luck.
I don’t have a tradition other than to craft on something!
My favorite NY tradition used to be babysitting the grandkids and partying with them. And then they grew up and didn't need a babysitter.
My childhood tradition was going to the Rose Parade. Our house was about a mile and a half south of the starting point. My dad would drive a carload north as far as he could, and we'd walk the rest of the way. My uncle and the older kids carried a couple of stepladders and a board to make a little grandstand for the smaller kids. My dad watched the parade on TV, and when it ended, he'd start driving north, and we'd walk back south to meet him. You wouldn't be allowed to use ladders today! Dot
Most years when I was growing up, my parents took us all out to New Year's parties where there was music and dancing, usually country and polka. It was always so much fun and one of the few days of the year we were allowed to stay up past midnight.
