Here are my Goals for this quarter, in no particular order.
#1 Stain Glass Block of the month - This quilt will not be completed until Q4, 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.
I currently am up to 9 blocks complete, after third quarter and hope to finish this quilt during Q4
#2 Wall Hanging: Totem Poles – I need to figure out where I put this project, so that I can finish it.
#3 Grandmother's flower garden – This was on the back burner, until I had a work trip scheduled in Little Rock, Arkansas. I was able to get part of the top together but now need to put more flowers together. I am also second guessing my decision to make this a baby quilt....which means it may end up as a Queen Sized quilt.
I hopefully will complete it this quarter, but only if I keep making more flowers.
#4 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 have to finish this baby quilt this quarter as the baby will be born soon!
#5 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.
#6 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.
#7 Monkey Gifts -
When working on this project last quarter it took a bit of a turn in design. 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.
I have the blocks done, but need to do the binding. This will be done in Q4 for sure!
#8 Tissue Holders - I started these probably 5 years ago. Time I finish them up. There are parts for at least 10 holders. I started to work on this last quarter and realized that the pieces I had cut were either side A or B, but the A ones didn't coordinate color-wise with the B ones. I need to either find more scraps or cut up these bits and put them in my scrap bins.
#9 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.
#10 Midnight Flight - I took this class from Bonnie Hunter during her visit to my local guild. I have one block and a bunch of pieces complete, but am really looking forward to finishing this one.
I made a couple blocks, but really need to dedicate time to this one.
#11 Tula Pinks - 100 modern blocks - I decided to join in a quilt-a-long that is completing one block a day for 100 days. I am almost half way through making the blocks and hope to finish this quilt in Q4.
#12 - Star Wars pillow case - My son loves Star Wars, so I bought this fabric to make him a pillow case, now I just need to make it.
#13 Boomerang - I love the Jaybird Quilts patterns and can't wait to make this one. One of my local quilt shops is closing, so I picked up the fabric to make this quilt.
#14 Ditto - This is another Jaybird Quilt pattern that I plan to make this quarter. This quilt may end up on my sons bed, but I may decide to just keep it for the living room.
#15 Northern Lights - I made a quilt from this pattern for my friends son, and loved the look. I also learned a few things about what fabrics I picked. These fabrics will make a queen sized version for my bed in Valentines Day colors. Note, the order shown is not the correct order....the fabrics got mixed up when I was at the store, so I have to re-figure out the order I decided on.
Those are my goal for Q4! I hope to finish many of them!
