Q4 Fal

1. Finish Lemon Squeezy. I need to put this one to rest. I have thought about the garbage can several times. I can't let it defeat me. I only need to quilt the borders and add binding. Every time I get this on the machine, something goes wrong. Done!

 

 


2. Finish Galaxy. I am determined to get these big ones done. The big rings are appliqued on the outer edge right now. So, that they hold position. This quilt has been getting daily attention. I am in love with it.



3. Catch up on Farmer's Wife QAL. I would like to have 50 complete by the end of FAL.


4. Finish Broken herringbone quilt. Here's the problem. I started this without enough fabric to finish it, and now I can't get two of the fabrics in the block. So, this is a do over. Ugh! My tip is before sewing, make sure that the fabrics you want are still there and go get the fabrics. I thought they would be there, and I was wrong.  Done in different fabrics!



5. Complete swoon quilt.

 
6. Finish Quilt as you go Hexes. I forgot all about these. What?!?!  I was looking through my photos, and I was like oh yeah. I remember those. They are really quick blocks.
 
 
 
7. I am going to make another double wedding ring mini and enter into the DWR challenge. It is fast approaching. This was my first attempt, it needs some work.

 
 
8. Sock Monkey that my daughter has been asking for all year.
 
9.  I have a shirt that I've had just stashed away since August of 2012.  It's time to knock that one out. 
 
 
 
11. Star Trek Quilt. I have some fabric, piece of paper with design and that is all.
 
   The list may be light for some, but this is a huge undertaking for me. I don't know if sleeping will happen, and I always like to start new project. Christmas is coming, and I know that I would like to make some things for Christmas. Which will probably be separate from this list because I haven't come up with any brilliant ideas....yet. They are there. Here's to crazy lists. Blog at ya later.

  1. You forgot about your swaps! I don't think I would do well with a list of things that need to be finished. I am actually thinking about going downstairs and sewing while the house is totally quiet but I'm going back to sleep instead. I'll cheer you on though.

    1. I hope that they all get done. I'm have lost my mind with this list, and you would know. LOL I've never completed sooo much at one time. Yes there is the swap. Just a little mug rug, right? Those things can slow me down. Focus is on point. Thanks for cheering for me!

    1. I made seven. Then, I got different fabric. So, it's only 2 with the new fabric. So, that's a lot to bite off. Thanks on Galaxy. It's my very first creation. I just sat down today to work on the borders for lemon squeezy. I am in way over my head.

    1. Thank you! I am relieved to finally be done with Lemon Squeezy. I took the seam ripper to that so many times. I am really excited about the galaxy quilt. I am in process of sewing them all down. It's looking good. I love when things come together.
