Good morning all! My goal is to finish Months 6, 7, and 8 from a 2011 BOM. Will check back in after lunch. I'm off to church in a little while and then will start actually working this afternoon.

Looks like everyone has great projects in mind.
I want to finish my DS Stormtrooper quilt. I saw one made of crochet granny squares on Pinterest and decided to make it from fabric. I'm quilting it with invisible thread which is giving me fits!
Figure out how to post pictures from my IPad.
Have a great day quilting pals!

Count me in! I'm going to cut out the pieces for my KS quilt for my QS bed. I want it to be a bedspread to the floor. I measured and it should be perfect. The pattern is called Walkabout by Connecting Threads. I'm probably only going to get it cut out today and then maybe I'll make a bag or something small. I can't really start sewing on that giant quilt for 2 weeks as I'm having company and they sleep in my sewing/guest room. :-/ That's ok though- we are really looking forward to their visit so I'm happy to put my project on hold.

If my pictures attached like I think they did, the purple one is the pattern and the yellow, green, and brown/burnt red/yellow/green will be my quilt. My BR is buttercream yellow with brown, burnt red and green accents, with green curtains. I can't wait to see it in my room! I'll be sending this to a LA'er for sure.

Happy VQD to all!!

[QUOTE=grann of 6;5798917]Good morning VQers. My goal today is to just get something accomplished.

I totally agree! My goal today is to sew something - anything - just get to the sewing machine! Good luck everyone!
