I really need to finish some of my WIPs. I attempted to attend a quilt meeting on Saturday and it was cancelled due to the weather. 3rd Saturdays at 9 am. I want to have several finished quilts to show next month. So CHOP CHOP...
I have listed my quilts in order from most completed to least. This should probably be the order in which I work on them.
However, that being said, I am really thrilled with #5 right now and am working nightly on those blocks.
- Buy backing fabric (7 yds) for the Cross-stitch double bed quilt. Joann's - $7.99 a yars Sew Essentials-Bleached Muslin 120''. Sounds like a good deal
- Take photos of my WIPS and other fabrics and add to blog so I can view them.
- Buy dressmaker's stencil - French curve. Go online for it. http://www.amazon.com/C-Thru-Ruler-Company-French-Curve/dp/B001E1Z6PS
- Get Cindy's book? http://www.cindyneedham.com/handbooks.html
Quilts being worked on
- Eli's Christmas Quilt - "A Christmas Quilt for a Christmas Boy" - very close. Just about 5 blocks need more free-form quilting.
- Wall hanging - Need to add more quilting with my metallic threads.
- ABC quilt - ready to quilt. Need to mark with stencils and pounce. Or should I just do different free-form patterns in each one?
- Star Quilt #2 - 19 of 32 blocks done - ready to quilt center
- All Hallows QAYG quilt - 4 of 12 blocks done. Backing will be black and white with black and red (love fabric) to join. Should I make more squares and make this queen size? Maybe
- Star Quilt #3 - 0 of 32 blocks needed - ready to quilt center
- Dogwood Hand quilt - so close! Haven't worked on it in years. Need to pull it out and just do it. especially with more snow coming.
- Flower hand quilt - Can I do this with the machine to finish? Pull out and look at it.
- Wine Placemats - One quilted and ready to bind. One sandwiched and ready to quilt. Two pieced and need to be sandwiched.
- Cross-stitch double bed quilt. Need to finish cleaning the back to clip threads. Figure out how much fabric needed and piece or buy backing fabric.
- Green placemat - need to finish rest of quilting and bind it. One green one already finished.
Quilts being planned
- Woodsy wonders small - motifs cut. Need to cut batting and decide on the back fabric. Butterflies? I am thinking about crooked squares and fill in with random strips or rethink this. Maybe sky/star fabrics?
- Woodsy wonders #2 - fabric only. Nothing cut out.
- ABC panel - really small. Need to figure a design to go around it. Don't really want to cut it.
- Laurel Burch panels - I have two. Wall hanging size.
- Wine panels - placemats?
- 2 cartoon space panels - 2 separate quilts?
- Noah's arc panel
- Quilt for Connor - Houses or something with a train and some houses/landscape?
