I need to get started on my daughter's wedding quilt. Got almost all the fabric already to go, just need to find a backing.
|
I decided for this year since i'm fairly new to quilting and my skills are still improving I am not giving any quilts this year. However once this season is over I will try and get to work on some of the UFO's I have that need to be quilted that are meant for people. I will start making other gifts specifically through out the year to give for gifts next Christmas.
|
3 UFO's are on my list - a raggedy bricks lap quilt with homespuns on one side and regular cottons on reverse (will get to clean out alot of scrap batting pieces) - a queen puss-in-the-corner in pinks/browns with blocks set on point (a keeper for me) - and a quilt of valor (was given 6 star blocks to motivate me).
|
The plan: First make a simple wall hanging for February. Then I have the fabric and pattern chosen to make my 7 yr old. a small quilt. I think it will be simple. I want to have it quilted at LQS. Have never done that before. Seems like a lot of my plans don't pan out too well, tho.
|
Finish my last UFO -- then a valentine table runner and a baby quilt for a friend due in March
|
I have all my Christmas items done, right now I'm working on a wallhanging for my mother-in-laws birthday. She will be 95 on New Year's eve day and just went into the nursing home. Her room needs something to brighten it up.
|
I REALLY want to do a Bella Bella mosaic quilt this year. But I've wanted to make one for the last two years so......
Anyway, this year I want to teach my daughter to sew and I want to make a fractured quilt. |
I've just started a real scrappy lap quilt, of course, I have about 10 other UFO's I should really finish up.
|
The first thing I need to do is design something for the workshop I'm teaching at the beginning of February. It's still in the "I wonder what I'll do" stage. LOL
Then I have a baby quilt to get done. |
Love the designs. I hope to finally get to my winter Bow Tuck bag. Gorgeous farics but the holidays interrupted my sewing for ME,LOL
