Knot Potholders
Already finished my knot orphan blocks into potholders. I decided not to put loops so they can double as hot pads for the table if needed. Once I got focused, it was not so bad and I played around with some ideas for when I quilt the finished quilt top this orphan blocks belonged too.

Tutorial on making place mats
It was exciting to finish up my Christmas place mats, napkins, and table runner this past weekend. I am trying to use up all my left over Christmas fabric so I have started some hot pads with mini dresdens on (#tinydresdenparty2019) They were fun to do but more challenging then the typical dresden being about half the size. I have included a link to Quilty Obsessions website where the directions and template for the mini dresden can be found. Enjoy.

It is time to set goals for the next three months with #FAL2019. My host is Capitola Quilter.
I have about 30 Works in Process and it was hard to narrow it down. Last year I would list 9 and then end up working on something not on my list. So typical me! Or start something new. I thought it wasn’t working so I didn’t participate 3rd or 4th quarter. Guess what? I finished even less. New strategy for 2019. List an even dozen of projects that catch my eye to finish. Of course I will be working on random things that aren’t targeted to be finished until later quarters but I figured what could it hurt? I got out my Quilter’s Planner. Made my list.
