I finished the binding on a couple more quilts. These two are going back to Kelly, the quilter, who is also the rep for Victoria Quilts and the quilts will go to cancer patients undergoing treatment. The first is a pattern called colorweave and is free on the Moda site. The second is a Villa Rosa pattern, Something Positive.
The Corner Cabin quilt is quilted and waiting for the binding to be stitched on.
And, new projects for July that I have started are making 6 more churn dash blocks and there will be enough for a Quilt of Valour in red/white fabrics.
And I have some Happy Blocks that are 'adult' that I need 13 more to have enough for a quilt for Victoria Quilts. So, have pulled some fabrics from my scrap bins and will get those blocks made.
And then I have my "floor" projects.... in bins and just sitting there!
My list for July to work on is as follows, but, as always, lists for me are just a guideline because I am so easily distracted by something new and more interesting.
1. Polka dot blocks made 2018 for the Sparrow block of the week challenge
5. Solstice blocks from Pat Sloan mystery - from 2017
7. Work with my RSC rail fences from 2018
11. Applique Welcome Autumn wall hangings from 2017
13. Dig out Ohio star blocks and make enough for a quilt 2016
16. Make a block for Joanne's quilt to replace the US flag with maple leaves
17. Cut up kid's fat quarters for a Yellow Brick Road
So, some projects are really old UFO's (and there are lots more in a bin that I am ignoring) and others are current or will be new projects.
I have many sets of blocks on hangers and they all need more blocks made to have enough for a complete quilt top. This list however, doesn't have any of the new, fun, "oh look" ideas that I will be encountering as the month progresses! But, at the same time, lists keep me organized and feeling in control of what is happening here in the studio. And, I did well in June. I went back to my June list and crossed off all that got completed and that is a good feeling to know that I didn't have move those to this month.
Hope everyone enjoyed a great July 1st and 4th. Maybe our weather will get hot enough for me to dig out my tank tops and shorts?
You sure do get things done. Keep up the great work!!
ReplyDeleteI get easily distracted by projects that are patiently waiting. Hopefully, one day, I will like I am caught up to date?
