I am loving working on the Summer Sampler quilt. I don't like the feeling of being behind though. I want to get caught up on these this week. I've made 5 blocks so far and the 8th pattern is coming out today so I'm really not that far behind. I just have the feeling that I'm getting too stretched out. I'm not going to start anything else until I finish the sampler and my other 2 WiPs. Melinda and I were talking this week and I was telling her that I don't really think I'm the kind of person that can have 5 projects going on at one time. I really feel like I accomplish more when I start and finish one quilt before I move on to another.
Finished:
-Blocks #3 & #4 for the Summer Sampler Quilt. These blocks are so fun to make!
and the 4 together...
-Red/White Wonky Star - I've entered this one in the Gen X Summer Fair. So thrilled this is completed!
-Batman/Superman - yeah! I love a finished quilt.
In Progress:
-Compassion Quilt for my friend - I didn't work on this one this week. I'm still mad at myself for not switching some of the fabrics around so I guess I'm pouting. ha! I've decided to leave it the way it is so I need to just sew it together and move on.
-Purple Quilt for The Grandmomma - poor little quilt is still sitting there.
-Purple Quilt for The Grandmomma - poor little quilt is still sitting there.
Begging for a Backing:
-Single Girl - tired of seeing this one listed on here.
Begging for a Binding:
Baby Hooty - still waiting, I think I need a reason to finish it.
On the Bubble:
Rubik's Crush - I look at this fabric every day and hope to start it soon.
Fifi & Fido - 100 Quilts for Kids - still thinking...
On the lookout - I've got my eye out for the perfect fabric to make:
Swoon - auditioning fabric on a daily basis - still looking.
Oooh, I like the Super Batman quilt! (Especially the superman side...)
ReplyDeleteI just love that red and white. So gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteOooooh make swoon for me out of that Kaffe fabric. Just kidding!Love that pattern.
ReplyDeleteYour Farmer's Wife blocks are looking great--love the colors and contrast you are working with.
ReplyDeleteI made a little boy's quilt out of the disappearing 9-patch block as well, and I backed it in trains. He loves it, as I'm sure your Batman quilt will be loved too.
So fun to see the ideas and things on your blog--thanks!
