Will you join me for our Virtual Quilt Day - Sunday 9/23?
#22
I am busy on Friday night and Sat night and ds2 is coming home from college but I am going to give it a try. I have enough half square log cabins for a lap quilt and enough squares for a disappearing 9 patch for a lap quilt so I really have to get these together.

I was looking forward to seeing this post. I love these days that I totaly commit to sewing! Count me in:
I will be LA practicing on a sample quilt. I need lots of it! Nine 15" blocks and a border to play in. Just bought a 4"clamshell ruler to learn.
Also working on UFO #6. A scrappy 'Snake in the Hollow'
peace

I hope to spend almost this whole WEEKEND sewing, if this darn flu bug will leave me alone! Count me in!
I have LOTS of quilts in progress that are destined to be Christmas presents...I really do need to spend a lot of time at the machine over the next few weeks anyway.

After about 6 weeks of very little quilting I have been sewing up a storm this last week or two. Have made two small lap quilts for my two grandaughters (just need to complete the hand sewing for two sides of the binding on one). That leaves four WIP (sounds so much better than UFO); two identical twin size quilts which have 48 appliqued blocks (seemed like a good idea at the time!) an embroidered tote bag and a sewing pouch. So this weekend I am hoping to finish piecing one of the quilts and to applique and put together three columns of the other quilt, I have set myself a target to finish by the end of September so I can begin on my Christmas list. Rachel you will have to keep these days going to keep me on track. See you all on Sunday, rotary cutters at the ready and machine engines running.

What I really need to be working on is gifts for Christmas...Disablilty does not leave a large gift budget...Anyone with ideas for kids and married children? Appreciate all the help I can get!!

Just a quick reminder!! Sunday is the day!! I have been working on patterns, and I can't wait to be able to get more done!! My hubby is planning on keeping our son occupied the whole day, so I am going to be a quilting fiend. Here's a peek at a few designs I have already done:
So how is everyone else doing getting stuff together?
Cheers!
