Well, no finishes happened in the Winter 2025 quarter. Something about Covid with no energy for a month, colds and busy children. I did get to have 2 weekends at the beach though - valentines weekend with my sister and this past weekend with my daughter. I also had a weekend with my son in St. Pete for the Indy car races. Do I feel bad leaving my hubby and son home.... nope! I will drag them all to the beach at some point this year though.
The list of UFO's -
1.) I know I have at least one more cut somewhere to fill that open spot for a 7x6 setting. *** found the parts in a baggie! These are hand pieced.... and might need a little fixing along the way on some of those middle joins. Just ordered some kona solids for an alternate block for these to become a quilt. From Inklingo lemoyne stars. Might need to order more since I am using that bolt for a few things! The blocks are 4.5 inches.
2.) I think it's a 6.5 inch cut center of greys and 2.5 inch strips. Finishes 10 inches.
3.) Midget Applique quilt from Sentimental Stitches. I need to add more flowers and leaves and the vines... and the last border. Hand pieced and hand appliqued. Started January 2015 as a car line project. One block a week.
4.) triangle pyramids. started June 2024.
5.) 2024 RSC - Arkansas Traveller Quilt.
Progressed to a top in the winter quarter 2025.
6.) Midget block collection - I started these in Vermont in 2010! I have a light blue for sashing.
7.) Birds in the Air block collection - counted and needed 27 more blocks made for the size I wanted. I believe I have made 20 of those 27 in Winter 2025 quarter. Progress.
8.) Erin's Butterfly - I made the wings in 2021. Need to add one more set of wings... thinking 9 is a nice number?
9.) mostly cut out and some 9 patches are made. Hehe... from the first quilting book I had and made a quilt from. Introduction to Quilting 101 - the basics by Sharon Hultgren. I think this was Sunrise Surprise! The four patch from this book is at my Mom's hanging over a crib still!
10.) I forgot I had this. It is a cute birdhouse wall hanging but is foundation pieced, which I dislike. Maybe I can deal with it enough to get this done? Or rework it?
11,) This is a kit I purchased mid-90s - butterfly's. I think all the parts are there and I did start arranging them.
12.) Quilters Patch. A sew along that I completely did not meet my goals on in 2022. One block is done.
13.) Scrappy Flowering Snowball - I started cutting these with my accuquilt from scraps with the color of the month in 2020. I think it is time to start stitching them together. I see I need some orange added and purple and lots of lights! I have been searching for these and they seem to be playing hide and seek. I have yet to find them!
14.) Bittersweet Briar - pattern in Kim Deihl's book and kit of fabric.
15) Brimfield Awakening EPP. I did start this and have the first fabric thread basted in purple!
16.) Bonnie Hunter Mystery - On Ringo Lake - maybe step #2?
17) Bonnie Hunter Mystery - Grassy Creek (2020) Think I am on step #4.
18.) 30's log cabin tulip quilt.
Quilt Tops:
19) Ella Maria Deacon Blocks. Hand pieced, machine stitched together into a top. Patterns from Sentimental Stitches.
I need to measure and see if it is happy with it's size or now. All my quilts seem to have a mind of their own!
20) Vermont Quilt Festival Booth Hop from either 2008 or 2009. it is 71x71.
21.) Y2K Joann's BOM - quilt top
22.) 1857 Quilt Along Top - This one is in the hoop for hand quilting as of December 2024.
23.) Spring Hexagons - not sure if this wants to be bigger or not....
24.) Triple Irish Chain - green. 80x80 I think. I did find both fabrics extra with it... Might need a green or cream border first or both... Made in the early 2000's. circular feathers in open spaces.
25.) Harmony - hand pieced project started March 2021-
2/5/24 it is a top!
26.) Hexagon flowers on a black background. These are a stack of blocks I hand pieced a few years ago then hand appliqued to the black background a couple years after that!

Tough choice to pick ones to finish up first, Deb--they are all so pretty--[you know the butterflies are my fave though!! ;)))] I don't recall the 1st one--those beautiful stars--all hand pieced--just amazing work on these...
I am hand quilting away on Blues in the Night (so named as when I cannot sleep I hand quilt in the middle of the night!!); so far I have 3 blocks finished and 3 to go--I so LOVE hand quilting--but am working at a snail's pace to save wear and tear on my hands...
Rainy and windy here..and gray, gray, gray!!!
Hugs, Julierose
(P.S. Looking forward to F1 Japan --Tsunoda now with Red Bull taking Liam's place?? Whoa,,,,)
Oh my--what a beautiful line up and so many choices--maybe number them and put the numbers in a jar and pull one each and see how far you get for the month--then a new number the next month--that way you might get each one further along and it's a fun game!!! I see you have been having lots of adventures with family and kiddos some of your kiddos and some of others kiddos--We finally got a good thunderstorm and some good rain last evening--it had been a long time since we got rain right here--even turned the TV to watch the lightning!!!!!!! hugs, di
so many nice quilts to work on or just look at!!
