At the beginning of this month I had posted some goals..... I think I did pretty good. The quilting is holding me up. I had a perfect window to work on it yesterday while both were napping (first time that happened all week!) and just did not feel like it. So.... I worked on some applique while watching a couple of episodes of The Mentalist. I tend to tape shows and then watch them later.....I still have 3 of them to get through before the next season starts next month.
My goals for this month (so I can check in and see how I do!). * priority
1. Finish Aidan's quilt top * DONE!
2. Prep and quilt the log cabin and send to Colorado. ** pinned and binding made.
3. Make aqua pinwheel blocks * 2 Done
4. Make aqua birds in the air blocks * Not enough scraps to do this one.
5. Make 4 or 5 midget blocks * 4 done
6. Make 1-3 Quilt Square Along Blocks (Applique from 1st batch, star, triangle) * 2 done. 1 in process.
7. Make some Sow along blocks... I am way behind!
8. Piece the pineapple blossom into a top.
9. Prep and quilt some of the tops - pineapple blossom, Aidan's, Pink X
10. Hand quilt the QSAB blocks - a little progress made here.
11. Start hand quilting the fireworks quilt from last Julys RSC.
12. Finish the baby quilt top and get it quilted. * Top is DONE, quilting done - binding machine stitched on one side. Ready for hand finishing.

Such pretty pinwheels!
ReplyDeleteDo you need me to send you some orange!?!? I have TONS of it!
Nice pinwheels! Its funny Im quite hoping orange does come up as for some unknown reason I do have some. Actually Im struggling to think of what outstanding colours we might get - so looking forward to September to find out!
ReplyDeleteGreat blocks. Such a pretty color.
ReplyDeleteOMGosh, I am out of breath just thinking about your long ToDo list! Good luck with that.
Great pin-wheels. To bad not enough left to do you birds. I love your bird blocks too. Good to have goals, I need to think about how much I should get done for Sept now that the holidays are over.
ReplyDeleteLove your pin-wheels. Turquoise is such a pretty color. Calming.
ReplyDeleteGreat blocks. Too bad to hear you are low on orange. I am too, but it is sure to come up eventually:) Good luck with your "to do" list. I'm sure you will get most of it crossed off in no time.
ReplyDeleteLovely teal blocks.
ReplyDeleteI have almost no orange at all but could make blue blocks for the rest of the year, I think!
Whee - pinwheels! I was trying to puzzle out the block construction on those - it looks like there are two different pieced strips, plus the plain white. Is that correct? Ditto on the offer of orange fabric, I have LOTS!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty blocks. Teal is such a rich color to work with. Looks like you've done pretty well on your goals for the month. Congrats on making some headway.
