Q2 Finish Along

I missed last quarters reporting so am very keen to get the want-to-finishes mapped out. I find a listing helps to firm up a plan. If nothing else I will have an accurate list of what is hiding in my room.

1. I realize the top two are not bonifide WIPS as they are finished but I am adding them here as I have not photographed them or sent them to their recipients. They have been sitting for over a month waiting, probably closer to two.
2. Same as one above.
3. Blue Celtic Garden Quilt - needs a border to finish the top
4. Green quilt - finish sewing blocks
5. Green and Pink Quilts - finish sewing blocks. These are in the same number as I am making two quilts together with different accents. I am hopeful it will work but if not it will be a green quilt.
6. Sea glass quilt
7. Check quilt - layer and quilt. This is a charity quilt for an auction. My second quilt people are to bid on. Strange feeling. The first auction I bid on the quilt myself until I felt the price was high enough. No photo, oops.

8. Sunnyside quilt - layer and quilt
9. Baby girl quilt - my go to for girls is Aneela Hoey. Love Aneela! No photo

10. Star quilt
11. Nevermore quilt - May birthday deadline
12. Seascapes - July deadline
13. Traveller quilt - August wedding deadline

Okay this is bad, I did not even have to stretch for this list!

Now for the really reaching finishes - they are both Christmas quilts so not feeling the pressure. Phew.

14. Sew down the binding on my Christmas quilt
15. Find all the bits for a quilt I started maybe 10 years ago. Diamond pattern. Did not finish this quilt as my ruler did not have a 60 degree angle on it. Can you believe it? What an excuse!!!

This list does not include my economy block, 9 block, stripe or cuzco or seranade or urban cowgirl or bungle jungle quilts. Still not reaching but I will quit with the list as I am now totally deprressed and going back to bed and drawing the covers over my head. I thought this would be way more encouraging instead of overwhelming. And I still want to buy more fabric!!!

  1. Whew! Everytime I read about all your projects I think I should go have a nap! Aw well, A friend recently did a major clean out of projects (illness was the motivating factor) and she discovered she had 438 works in progress!

  4. You have quite a lot on your list, but your projects are so nice that you'll love continuing/finishing them.

    1. Thanks Regina, I actually just want to start new projects! Finishing old projects is not nearly as exciting!
