2019 Finish-A-Long ~ 4th Quarter List

Last Quarter for this year ~ Wow!  Where does the time go??  

I have two projects left over from last quarter ~ I know this list is kind of pathetic, but I'm just trying to keep it real!

1 - Patchwork Barn Block of the Month by Edyta Sitar. I have most of the quilt put together and I'm just starting on the applique for the side panels. 

2 - Good Fortune Mystery Quilt.  This is the first Bonnie Hunter mystery quilt I've ever done ~ and I LOVED putting it together!  Top is finished, and I'm hoping to finish this baby by next quarter.

So I guess I'll leave it at that.  We just bought a house, so we're getting ready to move (again!) and, between that and traveling to Michigan at Christmas, I'm not expecting to get much done on the quilting scene!  There's always next year ~ LOL.

2019 Finish-A-Long: 3rd Quarter Results

Since we moved across the country, I've spent more time exploring the Las Vegas valley than I have quilting.  So I've only managed to finish one of the projects that were on my list for this 3rd quarter:

1 - Patchwork Barn Block of the Month by Edyta Sitar.  I have most of the quilt put together ~ I'm just starting on the applique for the side panels.

2 - 2018 Quilters Planner Sampler BOM.  I made this one with blue and red Christmas fabrics.  FINISHED!

3 - Good Fortune Mystery Quilt.  This is the first Bonnie Hunter mystery quilt I've ever done ~ and I LOVED putting it together!  Top is finished, and I'm hoping to finish this baby by next quarter.  NO PROGRESS

One finish out of three ~ better than nothing!  On to the 4th Quarter :)

2019 Finish-A-Long: 3rd Quarter List

OK - so the last quarter flew by.  As expected, no finishes ~ but we just moved across the country to a new house ~ and I did make a little progress on one thing on my list!

So here we go again with the same 3 projects on my list for this 3rd quarter:

1 - Patchwork Barn Block of the Month by Edyta Sitar. I have the 72 6" blocks finished and I've finished the center block with the applique.  Next are the side panels (more applique) and the sashing (still trying to decide how I want to do that).  No progress last quarter, but I'd love to be able to finish it this year!

2 - 2018 Quilters Planner Sampler BOM.  I made this one with blue and red Christmas fabrics.  Top is done and I'm halfway through with the quilting, so it WILL be a finish this quarter!

3 - Good Fortune Mystery Quilt.  This is the first Bonnie Hunter mystery quilt I've ever done ~ and I LOVED putting it together!  Top is finished, and I'm hoping to finish this baby by next quarter.

It feels good to be settled with my new quilting space (even if I still can't find stuff on occasion.)  So I'm feeling optimistic about this quarter!

2019 Finish-A-Long - First Quarter Results

I had 5 projects on my list for this quarter:

1 - Star Light Star Bright.  FINISHED!  Blogged here.

2 - Patchwork Barn Block of the Month by Edyta Sitar. I have the 72 6" blocks finished and I've finished the center block with the applique.  Next are the side panels (more applique) and the sashing (still trying to decide how I want to do that).  I'd love to be able to finish it next year at some point!  NO PROGRESS.

3 - 2018 Quilters Planner Sampler BOM.  I've finished 12 blocks in blue and red Christmas fabrics.  I've already run out of background fabric and can't find it anywhere, so the background is going to have to be a little scrappy.  :)  NO PROGRESS.

4 - Coalition Bag - pattern by Sara Lawson of Sew Sweetness.  My daughter asked me for the handbag size and I have the fabrics and all the parts but it's kind of a surprise, so I can't show everything here until it's gifted.  SOME PROGRESS, but i'm having issues.

5 - Good Fortune Mystery Quilt.  This is the first Bonnie Hunter mystery quilt I've ever done ~ so call me crazy for putting it on this list, but I have all the bits and pieces finished and I just need to finish putting it together!    :)    TOP IS FINISHED!

So one finish this quarter and progress on two others.  I'm not expecting much for the next quarter ~ we're getting ready to move across the country, so I may be a little busy.  :)

2019 Finish-A-Long: 1st Quarter List

Happy 2019!!  It always feels good to have a new year in front of us ~ my goal this year is to finish most of my UFOs (I have 10) and not start too many new ones.  Fingers crossed! 

I have 5 projects on my list for this quarter:

1 - Star Light Star Bright.  Let's finish this oldie-but-goodie from 2014! I have the top finished and the back ready, so I just need to baste and quilt this one.

2 - Patchwork Barn Block of the Month by Edyta Sitar. I have the 72 6" blocks finished and I've finished the center block with the applique.  Next are the side panels (more applique) and the sashing (still trying to decide how I want to do that).  I'd love to be able to finish it next year at some point!

3 - 2018 Quilters Planner Sampler BOM.  I've finished 12 blocks in blue and red Christmas fabrics.  I've already run out of background fabric and can't find it anywhere, so the background is going to have to be a little scrappy.  :)

4 - Coalition Bag - pattern by Sara Lawson of Sew Sweetness.  My daughter asked me for the handbag size and I have the fabrics and all the parts but it's kind of a surprise, so I can't show everything here until it's gifted.

5 - Good Fortune Mystery Quilt.  This is the first Bonnie Hunter mystery quilt I've ever done ~ so call me crazy for putting it on this list, but I have all the bits and pieces finished and I just need to finish putting it together!    :)

I'm being optimistic this quarter ~ maybe it will motivate me!   Happy New Year!
