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.

Quilt Diary: Update on Katherine Kerr 365 block challenge

Just took a moment to read last post to see where I left off since I did not post last week. summer is here and time is flying by. It is already June 19th. Unbelievable.

Quilt Diary: June 2019 here we come!

It is hard to believe it is June already. I keep thinking I am going to get some large amount of free time. Haha! I am living in a fantasyworld, right?

Quilt Diary: Hockey, Hockey, When do I get to Quilt?

I wrote a post last week, but Starbucks Google lost it somewhere in the dark web. Maybe some day it will reappear but I am just moving on baby.

It is once again Hockey Wednesday (after Hockey Monday, Hockey Tuesday….) It is off season but I feel like I have less sewing time then during season. I am guessing because during season I am prepared and plan better. Of course, attending 3 out of 4 home playoff games each round takes a lot of time too. I am not going to Game 7 of Round 2 because my grandson Shaun does have practice today. We are taping it but I don’t want to watch if we lose. That is just not fun.

Quilt Diary: Hockey, Family, and Quilts

I had all these plans to do all this quilting this past Easter weekend as it was suppose to be some alone time for me. The rest of the family originally had all these other plans. The only things I had on my agenda was a MLS and a NHL game to attend and watch respectively. Tons and tons of me time!

Quilt Diary: April Update on Sew-A-Longs

Regular Hockey season is overall for youth and NHL. For NHL it is Playoffs and my Sharks are in but have lost 3 in a row. While working on the games I usually am working on my handwork projects. I also work on them (and my blog) while at Shaun’s (grandson) hockey practice. Spring hockey is now in full swing starting this week so I have my designated blog time on Hockey Wednesdays. (Yea!!!) Makes my work day a little short but hey, you do what you gotta do.

Quilt Diary: Finishalong 2019 Quarter 2 Goals

Quarterly Goals

Once again it is time to put together the list of possible finishes in the upcoming 2nd quarter of 2019. I will be linking up with #FAL2019. My host is Capitola Quilter.

Quilt Diary: April One Monthly Goal

Linkup with Elm Streets one monthly goal and current project update

ONE MONTHLY GOAL

Last month I set a very big goal to finish my NYE quilt started in 2010. I did work on it but got derailed when I started the Alison Glass #trinketsal in March. With working on two different daily sewalongs, I do not see me having enough bandwidth to reset that as my April goal. So I am going to set that aside and work on my Charity Hexagon Quilt which has also been on my list for a couple of years and I have worked on it. I do not like my thread choice so totally derailed.
