quilting done

I got the tulip quilt quilted. I now need to do a label and binding and it will be done. It was not one of my UFOs, but it was just using scrap fabrics and stash fabrics. Nothing was bought for this project.

I started to put together my list of things to take to first Friday. :)
Here it is -- always more than I'll be able to do, but I'll be sewing all day long. :) Estimate of 11 hours to do them.

1. Tulip quilt -- add the binding by machine <30>
2. Carolina Crossroads -- add the border <1>
3. Wedding Quilt -- add any borders that aren't already added <1>
4. Heart Strings Prayer Squares -- sandwich, add labels and birth (this is another UFO) <30>
5. Make 40 pink and brown 9 patches <2>
6. Make 40 green and purple 9 patches <2>
7. Snowball the 12 horses with scrappy pinks <30>
8. Snowball the 12 horses with scrappy purples <30>
9. Precious Moments baby quilt. Make 30 9-patches to go around the panel using pink and scrappy precious moments fabrics. (this is another UFO) <2>
10 Heart Strings quilt top -- add the outside black 2" border (this is another UFO) <1>

Sunday report

I'm a little late. Didn't get lots of things done this week, and what I did do didn't take away much fabric. LOL Judy reminds us we still have the rest of the year. Thanks for reminding us what needs to be focused on.

I worked on a purse for a swap and some postcards.

I worked on love blocks and quilts. The quilt was made by others, so, I didn't have any fabric usage to report from it.

I have so many things started, and need to focus and get them completed. I'm working on the tulip quilt's quilting. Hoping to get it done this week.

I sewed today!

It does feel good to do some sewing. I am still worn out, but I finished a purse I was making from scraps. I hope it is OK.

The front. The back. I used 2.5" squares and 6.5" squares for the prairie points.

I had my red hat group on Wed, and this is our group for the month. :) I'm on the back left and my Mom is on the front left. We had fun. Crazy ladies, lots of sisters. The lady, Mary, in the front middle is the Mom of 4 of the ladies -- all the pink hatters and then the red hat lady in the back to her right. What fun.

I also did some embroidery work today. Thank you, Vicki, for helping with the digitizing of things. This is for a Girl Scout quilt for our Service Unit Director. I have twice as many squares still out for signing. They should be signed this weekend and then I'll put it together. It will just be a wall hanging, so it won't be too difficult. I'm not sure how I want to quilt it yet. I don't particularly like quilting signature quilts, but....

I got my postcards made that I've been playing with for a month. Not my best, but I think they will have to do.

You know you are tired

When you almost fall asleep sewing a purse together. LOL
I was working on a purse from scraps. No photo yet and sat in my chair and noticed my head falling to my chest. Hummm, maybe I need to go to bed. So off to bed I went. Didn't get the purse finished, but hope to finish it up tonight.

Hope everyone is having a restful day.

Love quilting

I've been working on love quilt blocks.

Ruth Ann is getting some friendship stars from Flash, some hearts that were in the love quilt bank and a cross from me.

Kim is getting 8 shoo fly blocks from me.

Here is the photo of the love quilt after it has been washed.

I had fun putting together a package.

Before you think why does this lady not quilt? Well, this is what we were up to on Saturday. The special olympics. Wow, these kids did a great job, and we had fun. It was hot and dusty and well worth the effort. That's DD up on Bailey and me by her side. I was so tired that I don't even think I ate last night. LOL

This is her team -- at the beginning of the day. LOL By the end, we were draggin.

So, my update for the week is poor, but here it is anyway. Judy reminds us we still have the year.,
Fabric Added This Week -0 yards
Fabric Added Year to Date - 39.68
Fabric Used This Week - 0 yards
Fabric Used Year to Date - 32.38 yards
Fabric Used this Month .53yards
Net year to date: - 7.3 yards added :(

I have quilted some today, so next week will have some fabric used. LOL I also have 2 UFOs that if I get them done this week, will make another dent in the stash. I need to use 8 yards to be on the right side of the table. LOL

Hope everyone is having a great weekend.

labels

I made 2 labels, have sewed on already.

I've not been able to do much of anything, so this is nice to accomplish something.

I hate being ill.
