Roommate pillows

DD's apartment is supposed to be a 5 bedroom apartment, but only 4 girls in it so far.

Of course, DD decided they needed pillows (after talking about the living area).

So, I made maroon and gold (school colors) pillows for A, B, C & M.

If and when they get another roommate, I'll make one for her too.

I just hope that she is not moving in on Friday.

August updates

This is the updated status of my August commitments.

Note: this is the same list I've been using, so the changes are in a different color.

pink is the current update.

So many things to be done in August.

I've been given a later date on the baby clothing, which is a blessing.

I will continue to work on it, but am not so stressed out about it.

Other things keep popping up and needing my attention, so this list is actually longer, but I'm only tracking these items.

DONE 2. Test quilt to be done by the 10th 

(finished the top, so I'm OK. I don't have to have it quilted)

Design Wall Monday

I need to make the outer maroon border and I'll be ready to quilt this.

I have the backing fabric and it is a fairly easy quilt, so I need to just focus and get this one done. 

Baby clothing quilt is coming along.

I keep moving pieces around because certain ones keep showing up next to each other.

I don't have to have this one done immediately, so I'm happy for that.

It will go together quickly at some point.

I'm linking to Small Quilts Doll Quilt's Design Wall Monday and Monday Makings.

Food embroidery is finally bound 

I think this is one of my favorite UFOs I've finished.

Sunday Stash Report

I sewed all week, but did more long arming for others than using fabrics.
All is good, I got some boutique things made, so that helps.
