2016 Q3 Proposed Finishes

Image
By
Last quarter I was very successful with my finishes. It helps that I kept my list fairly small, this quarter I have plenty of projects that are almost done, they just need that extra nudge to the finish line!

First up, I want to finish my Cotton+Steel Halloween pillow covers. I was experimenting with the Quick Curve Mini Ruler and decided to make a few cushions.
***Update*** Finished July 2016

Next is a Doctor Who quilt, that will be a Christmas gift this year. I need to finding backing and quilt, but this should help give me a jump start on my Christmas gifts!
***Update*** Finished July 2016

Next, it is time to use my Hello Darling Layer Cake. I've had the perfect pattern, just not the motivation. So hopefully this will do just that.


Another mini quilt that has been sitting around, time to get it finished up. My Northern Lights Mini or as I'm calling is Morning Light.
***UPDATE***Finished August 2016

Finally I would like to start and finish a Christmas quilt made with some Cotton+Steel fabric.


A little challenging, but this should still be a manageable list for this coming quarter.

    That does sound manageable and I adore those first cushion covers, very cool designs!

Mini Modern Maples Cushion Cover | Scrap Project 6

By
Ahh, I just love fall! Hands down my favorite season, especially in the UP. There are a few leaves starting to change color and I'm so excited. I'm looking forward to a color tour in a few weeks and really hope I have a few quilts done so I can take some quilt in the wild photos. So with fall rolling in, I figured I would make a fun little fall inspired cushion cover. And since I've been on small scale sewing kick, I thought a mini modern maple cover was just what I needed for my living room. Plus, lets face it this was just a perfect reason to dig through the scrap bins and use up those small little scraps. My mini maple block finishes at 3 inches and when added to a mini 9 patch block it makes for a lovely scrappy cushion cover. For the quilting a did a orange peel design and while a little wonky, I love it! Lately I've been at a lose as to what I want to quilt on my quilts, so this was a nice change. I quilted this cover on my Janome HD9. This bab

2017 New Quilt Blogger Blog Hop

By
for the last several weeks i have been participating in the 2017 New Quilt Bloggers Blog Hop, hosted by Yvonne ( Quilting Jet Girl ), Beth ( Cooking Up Quilts ), and Leanne ( She Can Quilt ). while i have been blogging for a little while, this blog hop has been great to hone my blogging skills and meet other quilt bloggers. i have been crafty most of my life, i even learned to sew when i was younger. but it didn't really stick. after college i was living in Iowa and on a whim i bought a cheap sewing machine and began a back and forth with sewing. fast forward a few years, i got married and pulled that sewing machine out again and this time actually made a quilt top (that sat for at least 3 years before i quilted it). sewing again was pushed to the side as i was finishing my master's program and job hunting.  well after landing a job, moving, looking for a house. we found out we were expecting. though it was not to be and i miscarried in march 2011. during the next ye

Garden Snail Quilt : Update 2

By
well i had great intentions of keeping up with my blocks for the Garden Snail Quilt-a-long, but life and well, i just plain forgot a few weeks. so here are the blocks for the rest of January and February. i have enjoyed working with my Lizzy House stash and pairing it with some of my other favorite prints for the snail body. i've found it very useful to make 2 blocks at a time and i have very little waste from my background prints. and since i'm caught back up and even ahead a little bit, i will share my March blocks at the end of the month! if you are interested in joining the Snail Paced Slow-along-Sew-along, check out this post from Gnome Angel. Happy Sewing!
