2019 FAL-Q2 list

Hello Friends

I am going to be working on some things for quarter 2.  I will not be sewing much for the month of May so my list will be small.

-continue to finish a quilt a month.  This is working well for me.  I have a bunch of tops made that just need quilting.  I am hoping to get a few off to my long-armer friend soon.

-make the borders and corner stones for the Vintage Christmas quilt.  The blocks are made minus 1 that needs rick rack.  Hopefully by quarter 3 I can have this put together.

-organize sewing room.  I am hoping to remodel the master bathroom this year and get my clothes out of the sewing room so I can actually get my sewing items put away.

-finish my small swoon tablerunner.  This was made last year and needs to be finished!

Well, that is my list.  I don't have pictures of these things but I thought I would share my Easter bunny.


Hope you all have a blessed Easter.

2019 FAL-Q1 finishes

Hello Friends

Hope you are all doing well.  I want to share my finishes for the first quarter of the 2019 Finish-a-long.  Here is the list I made for my finishes.  And this is how I did:

-Finish a quilt a month.  So I should have 3 quilts completed.  How did I do?
I did it!!  I made 3 quilts using my late father's flannel shirts.  These will go to my sister, brother and Aunt.  But that is not all, I have another quilt finished!

This is the Milky Way pattern and was made for the 40th Anniversary of the company I work for.  The owner loved it!
I also got a quilt back from the long-armer but it needs binding.  Will add that to the list for next quarter.  I also finished 6 smaller quilts for Project Quilting.

-Word of the year quilt.  I did that too! And here it is!

- 12 blocks from the Vintage Christmas book.  I could not have possibly done those too!  Oh, but I did!


I have over 20 of the 42 done. :)

-Lastly,  did I organize my sewing space.  I have been working on that slowly and hope to have pictures to share next quarter.

I also worked on a new hand sewing project.  I am going to England in May and wanted something to work on while on the plane.  I am making a Grandmother's Flower Garden quilt.  Here is what I have so far:

Also, I don't have a picture of it completed but I did put together my Missing U quilt top!


I am exhausted!  I did not realize I did so much!  What a great quarter!  I am hoping this continues on to the next.  However,  like I said, I am going to England for 8 days in May.  The whole month of May is going to be busy with my birthday,  Mother's day, Sam's graduation and our trip.  I am hoping to keep the momentum up!

Thanks for stopping by!

Edit: Note to self-read the rules of the FAL before making one big blog post about it. D'Oh! :)
I was able to enter twice but I should have entered every picture individually.  That is going to make me have to blog more. :)  Lesson learned for next quarter!
