I wrote out my list earlier this week and thought it needed to be shortened. Somehow it’s longer. But I will be going to a quilt retreat this month, so there is that. The items are in the order in which I’d like to finish them.
This is Nine Patch 7.0. It’s a practice quilt for an on-line class starting Monday. It’s slightly further along than this. I need to have it loaded by Monday, but before I can do that I have 2 client quilts which need to be quilted.
This stack of fabric needs to become key fobs by the 16th. I either need to sort the fabric by color or find a good color which blends well on all the fabric since I’ll be top stitching them. I’m pretty sure it will go fast as I’ll be able to do them in an assembly line.
This skirt now has a waist band, but I ran into 2 issues. #1 the elastic I’m using is softer/stretchier than I expected, so I’m having issues pulling it through the waistband, and #2 a little disappointed in the amount of gathers around the waist. I need to just sit down and finish it. Again, it’s not that hard, so just do it!
I’m taking the Waves of Glory class by Annette Ornelas next week. I have experience with her dimensional curves, so I do not expect this to take long to complete.
Roll the Dice 1 – this needs quilted and bound. It’s not a very big quilt, but I do need to add leaders to the backing fabric I want to use. It would make my life simpler if I picked something else, but ‘I don’t wanna’. I’ll load this after I finish the on-line class and possibly after I get Waves of Glory quilted.
I really want to finish the Riviana quilt top. I plan to take this to the retreat. I have over half the 9-patches made already.
These red, white, and blue napkins have been in the works for over a year. It’s time to finish them. I’m taking them to the reteat.
Roll the Dice #2. I was digging in my UFOs looking for something and I found the blue string blocks. I think they go well with my HST top which is also a UFO waiting for a border. I think they’ll look smashing together. I do however need to make 4 more string blocks. Taking this to the retreat.
Kid’s Roman Holiday is really a PIG, as I’ve not cut into the fabric. This has been a project on my list all year. I’m taking this to the reteat.
99 Strips #1. This is for another on-line longarming class. I need 4 total, but I’m starting with this one. If I don’t have the rows stitched together before I leave for the retreat, I’ll take it with me. I’ll start the class after the retreat.
Now if I can just not start anything not on my list.
