I don’t have any new finishes since Saturday. It’s Hockey Wednesday and I am hanging out at my favorite blogging place – Starbucks – while Shaun is at practice. Work is extremely busy right now and looks like it will not let up until October. Despite that, I feel like I am currently in control. I will get a bit more stitching/blogging time now that Shaun is with me more days during the school week (his school is across the street). We have 6am practice on Mondays and Thursdays now (groan) and Tuesday/Wednesday practices. I only bring him on Wednesdays most time. Our first tournament is this weekend so I am trying to figure out how I am going to work in my quilting. Continue reading “Quilt Diary: Sew-A-Long Updates”

Quilt Diary: Apples A-door-naments Finish!
The trend continues. Another machine applique finished up that has been in process for months. It feels good to finish my final goal for my A-door-naments this quarter. The Apples one is for September and was fun! The cute new hangers from Ackfeld Mfg came in today so you get to see it with its cute hanger! So August is up and I am total prepared for September and October.

Quilt Diary: Another Finish! – Jack ‘O Lantern A-door-nament Wall Hanging
You may have recalled at the end of second quarter finishalong that I was close to many finishes but only one finish. Because of all that progress last quarter, it is the catalyst for all the finishes this quarter. Hmmm. Something to keep in mind when I get down on myself for not finishing anything, right?

Quilt Diary: Outdoor Patio Tablecloth finish!
I wanted to share my tablecloth that I made for my daughter’s outdoor patio table. I mentioned last time, I decided to put batting in because it was outside. It is a double-sided tablecloth (or topper). The above model’s name is Ozzie and he 100% approved the new table topper! I will be linking this 3rd quarter finish up with Capitola Quilter for the 2019 Finish-a-long. My original list can be found here. Continue reading “Quilt Diary: Outdoor Patio Tablecloth finish!”
Quilt Diary: Rag Baby Quilt & Burp Clothes Finish
Well that totally sucked! I was almost done with my post and it disappeared. Can I write it again as good as I did the first time. Good question. I am at Chicago O’Hare airport waiting for my rescheduled flight to Halifax. Boston is storming and they have cancelled flights in and out. I was the lucky one, I did it when I realized my connection was cancelled. Currently the plan has me still arriving in the same day! Yippee!

Quilt Diary: Sunflower Finish and July OMG
This post will be quick today as I am only going to talk about what I have worked on in the past few days since my last post. You add that the weekend is still in full swing and I have not done as much as a normal weekend (yet). I also have been focusing on finishing my baby rag quilt to take to Halifax on Wednesday. Here are a few progress pictures and I will post on that hopefully in the next day or two!

Quilt Diary: May Easy Pieced Table Runner Finish!!!
This is my second finish for this quarter which puts me ahead of last quarter already (lol!). I am excited to have finished this table runner. This series has it all for someone like me who is a wee bit ADD. I like to work on multiple things and get bored easily. There is piecing, applique, embroidery, and quilting. There was the planning of the colors because I choose not to purchase the kit that is offered (but the pattern is free!) When I redid my kitchen, my main decorating color has been teal. I am not saying other things won’t look great, but I really didn’t have any nice table runners, place-mats or anything. Since I am going to do them, I want things to go more with the chosen gray and teal decor. This was my second such project. (See Christmas set here.) Out of my Quilty Box was this gorgeous fat quarters that I thought was perfect. This fabric line (Moda Walkabout) has been fun with the the stripes.

February I picked something different than one of my other goal setting blogs I am participating in with the hope that multiple projects will get done. Haha! Not so much but I am getting the hang of setting realistic goals and slowly working on my very old WIPs. Progress can’t be sneezed at. Continue reading “Quilt Diary: NYE Quilt – March OMG”
