Design Wall Monday

This top is cute. As long as you follow the directions it is easy to do. I just make another one. When I look at this top I think it's going to make a sweet quilt some little girl would enjoy. The picture of the pattern shows the fun tabs at the edge of the border that is done after it it's quilted. The best part is I only had to buy the background and it turns out I would have had it in my stash. I even have the back in my stash. While I lost track of stashing busting, I know I am in the negative column. I plan on doing it again next year.


September Goals - update

As there are things I want and or need to do this month, I decided to make myself a list so I'd remember and make myself accountable to me. I'm not going to put the ongoing cleaning stuff, that's a given. What I am going to list are projects needing to be worked on or better yet completed.

Back for 2011 Cat Quilt
Binding for Japanese Bunny Doll
Birthday present for Cheryl
Cut out black and white fabric for log cabin quilt
Extra border and binding for Halloween pinwheel top
Little Charmer Halloween tote bag
Quilt on design Wall - Snuggle Blocks
Thread Catchers - made 2

Funny when I listed them I don't have as many as I thought I did. This is a good thing.

Lil' Twister

Once again I worked on something new instead of what I am suppose to do. I love projects I can start and finish within a day or two. I am going to have to make a list of what I need to do first. But in the mean time here is my latest project. I am scheduled to teach this quilt so thought best to make one myself. I was lucky to have the class sample made by someone else.

The squares all sewn together.



Squares started to be cut and put on the design wall.



All the squares sewn together with the borded on.



Top completed. I might add another border to make it bigger.
