A happy First Tuesday of September to you all!
Please join us over at Quilt Schmilt's Tuesday To-Do
and let's review the progress we've made.
While Lucey visited her homeland, I took it a little easier
for a week or so--including skipping last Tuesday's post.
(She is back, just not put onto her frame yet.)
So today I'm reviewing two [rather unproductive] weeks:
* * * Last 2 Weeks' Priority * * *
Finish Cross & Crown top and back; name
Not done but lots of progress. "Barberry Bramble" is almost
a finished top (more than in pic). Just a few more rows need
sashing and then it'll be time to join them together. It took up
the majority of my 2 weeks with its endless piecing but I really
enjoyed how the blocks went together--all 57 of them.
(The extra block will go on the back, or into a pillow)
Other To-Do's
2) Finish Simply Pumpkin top & backing
ON HOLD
Make label.
Not done.
3) Quilt Fair Isle Friends, bind & label
ON HOLD
Just make label.
Not done.
4) Bonus Item: make a big ol' pivot and
just do something fallishly fun just for my home
I was eyeing that little wall hanging that I shared
last time but I opted to take my 2 extra blocks from
Simply Pumpkin and turn them into pillow covers.
I recently purchased these 2 pillows that I fell in love with
instantly and felt the pumpkins would bring everything
together to create a nice cozy fallishly fun setting in our
living room.
I also pulled out this little kit and got a small start.
This will be my evening stitching for now.
This will be my evening stitching for now.
When you almost exclusively sew for others and/or for work,
I think it's really important to occasionally fit in projects
for your own home. Having these little treasures out
around the house keep me motivated.
* * * Week 36 Priority * * *
Quilt Simply Pumpkin & finish
2) Quilt Fair Isle Friends; label and finish
3) Finish Barberry Bramble top; quilt, label and finish
4) Finish pumpkin pillows
Short and sweet, that's it for me this week.
Happy quilting!
