Ack! It's been 2 weeks since I've posted. I'm okay! A bit busy, a bit overwhelmed by this whole gluten-free lifestyle. I've been catching up on homework, reading and researching gluten-free living, and grocery shopping and cooking. Doesn't leave much time for sewing!
This month I thought I'd try something new. I split the month into 2 parts: the first half is reserved for UFO work and the second half for current BOMs. There is one quilt that is a UFO, but since I work on it so much, I also consider it a WIP (work in progress). That's my Xmas quilt and it gets worked on the whole month! I am determined to get it done in time for Xmas!
This month I got my 50 feathers quilted on my Rehab quilt.
I like to leave all the paper on until I reach my 50 goal. They've already been removed.
Do you ever have one of those nights where everything quilty just comes together perfect and you get so much progress done? I had that happen Monday night! It was awesome. I got a whole row of my Xmas quilt pieced together and several blocks finished. Everything just went together perfectly.
Here's a snapshot of my design wall. I need a few more blocks to finish the other two rows. This quilt is from the VERY first quilt book I ever bought. I can't wait to finish it!
For more UFO updates, check out Blackberry Creek Home Arts. And come back tomorrow, because I'll be having a Giveaway to celebrate hitting 100 followers!
Good luck with your new eating restrictions. IT sounds like you have a pretty good plan for your monthly sewing obligations. I try to get my monthly swaps/exchanges/etc. done by the 10th of the month, and then on to other fun stuff. Thanks for the Thimbleberries book!!
ReplyDeleteI love that idea of using a pattern to sew a design on your quilt. So cool!!
ReplyDeleteHope everything is working out in your new GF world..
ReplyDeleteYou are so organised.. I must try your methods!! But I know I won't, things just tend to get out of hand here on the farm!!!
Love the blocks on your design wall. And that red quilt is going to be awesome.
