Untitled #1: My first quilt for me
Oh, so long ago. This was my first quilt out of "quilt-shop quality" fabrics. It's pretty traditional, except I completely ignored the construction given in the pattern. It's even basted and ready to quilt, so should be an easy finish, right? I just have to decide on the quilting pattern.
do. Good Stitches quilt: Sticks and Stones
I joined the Love Circle last year and somehow felt brave enough to lead a quilt by mid-year. It makes sense, right? I love designing blocks...and then other people sew it for me. It's fantastic. I have the blocks in a big stack and I have a good idea of how to put it together.
Transparent Stars Runner
Something small. Top's done, backing chosen, just need the motivation to put it together. It'll be a cover for my cabinet of interfacing. Very glamorous end destination! I have plans to both machine and hand-quilt this one.
Super Mario baby quilt
Another one that's pieced with a backing made. Just needs basting and quilting. I started this before the baby was born and now he's uh, 1.5.
Hubby's bowtie quilt
And for kicks, I'll toss in should start working on finishing this bow-tie block quilt for the hubby. Who has to use a big piece of fleece to warm up in front of the TV. That's pretty pathetic, right? I have at least 80% of the blocks made, backing fabric earmarked, binding chosen.Pattern testing for Wise Craft
I'll be testing a pillow-size version a new pattern for Blair!Good thing there's no penalty for overlisting! This'll pretty much smash any quilt finishing records I have if I manage to complete it! I think I listed some low-hanging fruit, so hopefully there'll be at least 2 finishes!
Yay for participating in the FAL! I also have an astounding number of WiPs, and doing the FAL last year did help to cross off a few projects. We should find time to sew together this year more to stay motivated together. I'm also testing for Blair (small world!). I'm doing a full-size quilt for her, maybe even of the same pattern.
