Last Quarters list was
long, like 39 items long, and I finished over half of the items. A couple of the items are ones that will take
me quite a while and I knew they wouldn’t be finished. But I did amaze myself with the number of
ones that got completed. This quarters
list isn’t as long. It’s finally
starting to warm up here in the Midwest, which means that there will be more
outside activities on the weekends. My
son really wants to get some Frisbee golf in, and I have a stone walkway to
continue working on. So here it goes.
1.
Elephant - Violet Craft – I have the trunk almost done. I believe the last piece of the trunk is also
done, but I didn’t attach it. I took
this to retreat as my back-up project in case I got everything else done. Somehow, I had lots of time to work on this,
after I got as far as I could on my other projects. One needed to be quilted but I didn’t have
any backing, and a second one I planned to quilt there but it ended up big
enough that I decided I will just toss it on the long arm.

16.
Nova – So I ended up finding this cute black and yellow fabrics
for this project, but since it grew from a small project to a bigger one I will
be quilting this on the long arm, it’s just so much easier and I have more
options for how to quilt it. Now it just
needs quilted, a label and bound.
17.
Thread
Catcher #1 - I will be making some thread catchers out of woven panels as gifts. I made a sample one, and these are all going to be tricky, due to the thickness of the woven panels.

28.
Crocheted temperature blanket – I’ve gotten quite a bit behind,
but hopefully I can get caught up this quarter.
I really want to finish this on in August, the week after my nephew’s
birthday (as I will need that week’s average temperature to finish). If I get too far behind it will go from a
birthday present to a Christmas present, but hopefully that doesn’t happen.
29. Lanterns of Hope - Needs to be quilted and bound.
30. I need to make a new Dave Ramsey wallet and bought these materials at the Fabric outlet.
31. Modern Trip Around the world - Needs to be Quilted and bound

There is a glimmer of
hope that these will get done this quarter…. if I try really hard. Ha-ha who am I
kidding I doubt I will even touch these (unless moving them in my studio
counts), but I really like keeping track of all my projects in one place.
32.
Grandmother's Flower Garden (Queen) - This is my ongoing
handwork project. I think I still have quite a few more to
make.
33.
Pixelated Wolf Quilt - I still really like this wolf, but it
is slow moving due to the number of triangles per row, and not having a place
to lay the whole thing out.
34.
Running Zebra - Paper pieced - Have the pattern and fabrics
will be pulled as I go from my stash.
35.
Zebra Head- Have the pattern and the fabrics will be pulled
as I go from my stash.
36.
Giraffe - Violet Craft - I have the pattern and fabrics
(Cherrywood of course) all ready to go, but am waiting till I finish the
Elephant to start this one.
37.
Mountains - Violet Craft - I bought the pattern this summer when
in the Seattle area and can't wait to make this one. It may even get
finished before the Giraffe. Can you tell I am really liking Violet
Craft's patterns?
Well that is my
list. It has defiantly diversified from
what it used to be. It’s no longer just
quilting, but also creating garments and crochet.
