Love Making Lists. Goals for August.

 And quilting is no exception.  I'm on a list making push and here it is in order of importance:

  • Welcome to Hollywood table runner for my husband - that one you have to wait and see.  It's applique, using two sided interface.  It is so old, I don't remember where I got the free pattern from, I have to find out.  But it's a 9 x 20 size so it would be perfect on a wall in the kitchen.
  • 4 more paper pieces for the Cozy Holiday Sampler QAL by Apples and Beavers. I bought this last year and only had time to do about 5 of them.  So I gave up.  Now I'm back on track, doing one a week with email prompts from Apples and Beaver.   You can see a sample of one below.   There are 20 paper piece blocks.  Already have 7 of them done so now I want to do 4 of the following this month:
    • Teddy Bear
    • Snowflake
    • Ms. Santa Claus
    • Female elf
    • Male elf
This is their sampler.
  • 3 more cacti from the Cacti quilt.
  • Baby quilt that is due to give away at the start of September.  I've had this one for close to 10 years, just sitting in a package, so it's time to get it done.
  • 2 blocks from the Summer  Block Party that I never even started but I do have scraps to complete it all.  I've seen a number of other people trying to finish it so I'm starting because I want it on my barn door....  It looks so cute for the summer.  Lets see what happens.  The link is here for what it was all about....
  • Cut out Bear-Wildered by Art East Quilting Co.  Just bought it, couldn't resist.  Want to hang it on my wall in the living room.  It's my one start (not a UFO but a kit that I just purchased so I want it done before it becomes a UFO).  I want to cut it all out this month, and sew it the next month.  My hubby is going on vacation with his friend, he's gone for 4 days, so it's 4 days of complete sewing.

Anything else is a bonus....  I'll be happy to get the Hollywood quilt done for the hubby.  He leaves in one week.  He'll have fun and I want the fun to continue when he sees the quilt he's been asking about for the past 4 years.   I think it's time   ;)

That's it, that's my goals, #1 the Hollywood one and the baby quilt which will be due for September.  I need a couple of small ones for this month considering the last month.  Lets hope it goes well.  I'm hooking up to the OMG group at Stories from the Sewing Room.


Good luck to all.

  3. It is so satisfying to cross something off a list as done, isn't it? Good luck with your list of goals.
