And I am giving myself until the 20th of November to finish them off and then I will be able to enjoy my festive season guilt free. So I am declaring my hand people and by the aforementioned date I will have finished......
Putting the borders on this quilt-top. The photo just shows it laid out in blocks, but I have sewn it together now and have managed, through the power of Google, to track down and purchase some border fabric for it.
Making my On A Whim quilt top. I have pieced all of the components of the blocks and am in the process of squaring them up which I am finding totally tedious. I have completed two blocks- this one, and other that I have misplaced - things aren't looking good for that deadline! Fortunately, I have enough fabric to whip up another block if it doesn't turn up.
Putting the borders on my Dad's Carpenter's Star quilt. You can see the quilt here.
I would also like to finish my Crystal star quilt that I have designed using a layer cake in Petite Odile by French General. (This list is starting to seem a bit ambitious)
The list also includes finishing up Scarlett's string quilt.....
This little one has been quilted and I am currently stitching the binding down, so I may even have a wee finish by Friday.
And last but not least is this little tumbling block that I am going to quilt with some straight lines and turn into a cushion for my son's room.
Cover me. I'm going in!
Great list! Always fun to have a finish and cross it off the list works for me. Good Luck!
ReplyDeleteWow Girl! You certainly are ambitious! Tell me the name of the Star Quilt Top ? It's calling my name...
ReplyDeleteGreat work! Lots on the go here.
ReplyDeleteI just posted about your "Briar Rose" quilt...I love it, and it is coming together nicely!
I got you covered! Excited to see your On a Whim color palette - it looks like it will be nice and soft. Good luck on all your upcoming finishes!
ReplyDeletecheers!

You need the lovely Alistair to come and mop your fevered brow, mind you I am not sure the sewing would get done!!
ReplyDeleteAmbitious, but why not? I think you get more done when you're ambitious. Good luck! I am ambling along here. Maybe I should get ambitious?
ReplyDeleteGorgeous projects going on here!
ReplyDeleteIt's so interesting how your On A Whim block's blue polka dot fabric alternately looks like tumbling boxes and a white star. Lots of great and pretty projects!
