Zuma – Quilts & Adventures

To Do Tuesday #120

How is everyone this week? Hope you are all having a good November. Fall is finally really here in California. Rumor has it that we will be having significant storms this week. I forgot what they call them, but sounds crazy fun.

As usual, I will be linking up with Carol over at Quilt Schmilt in British Columbia for To Do Tuesday. I heard that they got slammed by winter storms this past week. Hopefully our northern friends are all doing well. See the link below to join us where we share our goals for the upcoming week and share what we did get done. People have some great projects. I get lots of inspiration from checking them out.

I had two Quilty Zoom days this week but was sick most of the week. If it wasn’t for the quilty days and me dragging my butt out of bed for that, I probably wouldn’t have gotten anything done. I am thrilled to be able to share with you what I did work on.

To Do Tuesday #90

Welcome Back! Once again I will be linking this post with Carol over at Quilt Schmilt. Thank you Carol for hosting To Do Tuesday! If you have not already, come join us or just take a look around at all the great projects. While most of the projects are quilty, they can be anything.

Quilt Diary: 2020 Quarter 2 Finish-Along

Well this past week found me finishing up a bunch of items for the end of Quarter 1. I wrapped up both Blooming Pumpkins and the Halloween wall hangings as well as finishing up the blue pinwheel potholders. That put me at 11 finished projects for Quarter one. Definitely one of my best quarters with a full size quilt as well as many small projects completed! Continue reading “Quilt Diary: 2020 Quarter 2 Finish-Along”

Quilt Diary: Sept 2019 One Monthly Goal

September is here and it is time to linkup with Elm Street Quilts for the One Monthly Goal. I have been thinking about this for the last few days wondering what I should commit to. Thinking about what is close to being done and I just need a little push. I narrowed down to four possibilities: Schoolhouse mug rugs, Blooming Pansies, Autumn wall hanging, or pulling out my Halloween/October placemats. The verdict is: Halloween/October placemats! It is time to pull them out of the closet and finish them up. So I am committing to making four October placemats with my purple, black, and orange kitty fabric. See above for sample.

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? Continue reading “Quilt Diary: Another Finish! – Jack ‘O Lantern A-door-nament Wall Hanging”

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!
