FAL Summary Q2

Here is my summary for Q2.  I am kind of sad that I didn't get as many finishes complete as I hoped, but I did start a bunch of new projects.

#1 Stain Glass Block of the month - This quilt was not complete in Q2, but I want to make sure to keep it on the radar.  A group of friends all decided to do a paper pieced block of the month quilt.  The design is by Ula Lenz and the pattern can be found here

Here are the two blocks I completed this quarter.  Now I am up to 6 blocks complete.




#2 Wall Hanging: Totem Poles – This one I am not sure where the project is currently even at!  Probably should find it and finish it. - Needless to say this project is not complete!


#3 Grandmother's flower garden – This one is on the back burner, I think I need more flowers.  I didn't end up working on this one either!





 #4 Gravity - I am happy to say that this project was completed.  While I was working on finishing the binding Bonnie Hunter happened to stop by the Get-a-way I was at, and she is friends with Julie Herman of Jaybird Quilts, and snapped this photo.  I was excited to not only be mentioned on Twitter, but Instagram and Facebook.   I love how this quilt turned out!



#5 Inside Out Pineapple baby quilt - I found this pattern online as a free pattern, and think it would make a great baby quilt for my cousin who is expecting.  I was going to set the blocks next to each other, then when I pinned them up on my design wall and they rotated themselves, I got to thinking that on point might also be cute. 

I did not make any progress on this quilt, this quarter...but need to get working on it, as the baby is due in September.


#6 Licence Plate Quilt - This fabric is from a shop hop last year, and needs to be made into a quilt.  I am thinking 1-2 borders on each plate, then piecing them all together.

Once again...I didn't touch this quilt.



 #7 Shop Hop Quilt - Last year I made a quilt with half of the kits I purchased during my shop hop.  The rest need to me put together into a second quilt.  Right now it's a pile of fabric for each row.

I didn't touch this project either.

#8 Monkey Gifts - This project is a top secret project.  So hopefully no one in my retreat group sees this.  I am making 8 gifts for retreat, and plan to use the monkey from the pattern as part of the pin cushion.

I worked on this project and it took a bit of a turn.  The monkey in the pattern was bigger than I thought so rather than pin cushions I am making a friendship quilt that will be in 8 pieces.  This will get done in quarter 3, as it's for my retreat in October.


#9 Doll Quilt - While cleaning I found this little one, it's a doll quilt from a few years ago.  Time for it to get finished.
 #10 Baby Quilt - While cleaning I found this little one, it's a baby quilt from a few years ago.  Time for it to get finished.

 #11 Fold-It Bag - I finished this project!  It was very easy to make, but I don't know that I will ever make one again, as it's not very practical.  Now that it's made I have no use for it.


#12 Tissue Holders - I started these probably 5 years ago.  Time I finish them up.  There are parts for at least 10 holders.

This project was not touched.

#13 Flower panels - While cleaning I found these, and had forgotten about them.  These panels are backed and need to be stitched and turned into a cute bag.

Another project that wasn't touched.



That's my Summary for Q2.....as you can see I didn't get many of the items on my list complete.  On my Q3 Goals list you will see that I did get a bunch of projects started, though.
