I missed linking up for Quarter One, so my list has been moved here for quarter two. I did move a couple of these projects along, but nothing was finished in the last quarter. (I may have even started two new projects....yikes!)
My quilt rack contains several tops that are pieced, but need to be
quilted. So, some other goals for this year include practicing my FMQ
skills and to also get certified at my LQS on their long arm.
Of course my year won't just be about WIP because I already have a list of quilt alongs and patterns I want to start as well! But, I need empty containers to hold them!
So without further ado, here is my lengthy list for this quarter. I prefer to just put it all on there at once, that way I can work on whatever entices me at any given time.
10. Bonnie Hunter's Celtic Solstice mystery. I started pressing and cutting for this one. However, I don't have enough scraps to work from, so I am going scrappy using fat quarters. With at least 10-20 different fats in each color--that is A LOT of pressing before I can even play! LOL Slowly working away at it.
14. I received this quilt kit several years ago. This is the first Flea Market Fancy collection along with the Tag Sale pattern. I would love to get this one completed for our bed---before we change the colors in the bedroom! When I received this kit, I really wanted to make it exactly as pictured--I have notes trying to keep track of where each fabric was used. Now, I don't think I need to be that neurotic about it! LOL I actually think I am going to use it as a leader and ender project while I work on another quilt.
16. Quilty Fun quilt I have more than half of the blocks completed.
Of course my year won't just be about WIP because I already have a list of quilt alongs and patterns I want to start as well! But, I need empty containers to hold them!
So without further ado, here is my lengthy list for this quarter. I prefer to just put it all on there at once, that way I can work on whatever entices me at any given time.
1. I have about ten of these
blocks completed now. Hoping to finish this one to fit our queen size
bed. I also know how I want to quilt it and plan to take the
certification class at my LQS so I can use the longarm.
2. This still needs to be quilted. I am practicing my FMQ and hope to work on this soon.
3. A quilt top made during Pleasant Home's Sew
Scraps Along 2012. The top is actually all pieced, I just love this
picture, so I need to quilt and bind it. Another top waiting to be
quilted.
4. A quilt top started during Thought and Found's Oh
my stars BOM last year. I only have about eight of the fifteen LARGE
stars completed. I really want to get back to this quilt! Love the
colors and plan to do some big stitch quilting around all of the stars
in coordinating colors.
5. I hand pieced this sampler over
17 years ago. It was a class I took to occupy my time while my husband
(then boyfriend) went away to college. It needs to be quilted and bound.
I am planning to handquilt this one! I took a class and am practicing
before I jump in here.
6. This one needs to be quilted.
7. Star
Surround QAL. I am not happy with the yellow fabric for the surround.
It was so much brighter when it was folded up! I also mixed up where I
placed those color corner pieces. So, I kind of set this aside.
8. This is one of the first quilts
I ever started, over nine years ago! I have most of the blocks
together, I just need to sew them together and piece the border. This
one is a wall hanging. I kind of have put off finishing it because I
wasn't crazy about the fabrics anymore, but it is starting to grow on me
again.
9. Penny Patch QAL---this QAL has quilted along without me! LOL I was
doing well until the piecing part, then life got busy and my temporary
design wall had to come down so I could get inside the closet that holds
the wrapping paper! So, I will need to lay this one out again and
finish it.
10. Bonnie Hunter's Celtic Solstice mystery. I started pressing and cutting for this one. However, I don't have enough scraps to work from, so I am going scrappy using fat quarters. With at least 10-20 different fats in each color--that is A LOT of pressing before I can even play! LOL Slowly working away at it.
11. The Fat Quarter Shop 2012 BOM. I have all but five of these
blocks together now. I want to change the setting so I am trying to
figure out if I have enough fabric from the finishing kit to make it
happen.
12. All but one block of this quilt is complete. Deciding the quilting will be tough!
13. I received this quilt kit two
Christmases ago. It is my first hand applique project and it is taking
me forever! I can't wait to finish it and hang it in my craft room.
14. I received this quilt kit several years ago. This is the first Flea Market Fancy collection along with the Tag Sale pattern. I would love to get this one completed for our bed---before we change the colors in the bedroom!

15. This quilt has half of the blocks pieced, but they are coming out the wrong size! I really want to get this one completed!
16. Quilty Fun quilt I have more than half of the blocks completed.
17. Just need to quilt my Aurifil mini for February.
18. I started these scrappy stars as part of a challenge to use up
scraps. I was working through my 1.5" scraps as leaders and enders. Now
to get it finished!
19. Finished handsewing all of the curves, now I just need to quilt it.
20.Halfway through quilting this top. Just didn't get a new picture of it!
21. Elizabeth Hartman's Catvent quilt. I am still collecting the fabrics for this one. I can't wait to start it!
22. I have been wanting to make this mini to hang in my laundry area. I think I may start here!
23. Nine Patch Posie. I am finally starting to assemble this top! I love it!!
24. Scrappy Braid table runner. Just needs to be quilted and bound.
25. Add the border and finish this mini quilt. (Still debating if I want to add a little embroidery also.)
26. This mini quilt is altogether, my goal is to quilt and bind it.
27. Still working on the embroidery on the skate. Hope to get this made into a quilt.
28. Catch up on my Farmer's Wife '30s quilt. I am so behind! I would
love to at least get some more of the blocks cut out and ready to sew.
29. Start my "I'm a farmer's Daughter" quilt with my Denyse Schmidt charms collection.
30. DaisyDo quilt. This one is being hand pieced and I am trying to get better at the curves.
31. The Splendid Sampler. I love this project! Out of the 90 blocks
released, I have this one done! Hope to get the top complete.
32. Swoon Sixteen. This is going to be a quilt for my guest room bed. I will be making more than 16 blocks.
Let's hope I get some of these completed this quarter for the Finish-Along Quarter 2
