So Many Projects

So many projects and so little time.  Not really, it's all a matter how to spend the time we have.  And this past weekend I have been spending it getting caught up on my Sampler Quilt, Night Sky.

Here are a few of the blocks I have completed and still have a number to go.



I'm really excited at how this is coming along.  I have another set of blocks done and 2 more sets cut out and ready to sew.  I know what I'm doing this week, how about you?  What are you working on?

Forgotten

I was going through my pictures checking to see projects that were to the finished line and those that were still just a flimsy and I came across a quilt that I had finished and never really blogged about. 

Texas Tumble Weeds.  The last time I showed it was here when I had completed the inside, before the borders were added.  The borders were added, quilting was done and binding finished.  And here it is!



It's a nice size lap quilt and I really do love this memory.  It was started at a Bonnie Hunter workshop in June of 2018.  Taking this workshop fulfilled a bucket list item for me, taking a class with Bonnie Hunter.  And I owe it all to my friend for telling me about the class and taking it with me.  Thanks Friend!!

A Finish

I have a finish that wasn't on any list such as my UFO list or a Challenge, or the "Dirty Dozen".  The reason this quilt was finished is our local quilt shop was closing and they had a quilting design I wanted for this quilt.


The top has been finished for years, but I couldn't decide on the backing.  The fabrics are from the All Iowa Shop Hop, 2013.  Here is the design I wanted for the quilt.  I wish I had the quilt shop quilt it backwards so you could read it on the back. 


It's windmill blades, the shape of the State of Iowa, and Iowa.  Perfect for this Iowa Shop Hop pattern. And another one is finished!
