Finish Along Q3: Plans

Another quarter means another overly-long and highly-ambitious Finish Along List... I've left it to the last minute to write this list, so apologies for the lack of photos! 1. Long Time Gone: this quilt is the result of Gnome Angel's latest quilt along, and it's so nearly finished! I just need to add the binding. 2. Foxy Quilt - all of the blocks are pieced and next I need to cut the sashing. 3.Baby Stars quilt: we'll be meeting the little lady later this month, so need to get this finished. 4. Another owl quilt for another baby. I ordered the backing and I'm taking my colour scheme from that. 5. Mixed Up City is yet another version of the Tula Pink City Sampler and has to be finished before the end of July. 6. Snail day quilt. All of the snails Mia and I have been making will be a picnic blanket for out holiday - so that's an end of July deadline for this quilt too! 7. and 8. I'm going to use the Garland City blocks to make 2 q

Finish Along Q2 round-up

Hard to believe we're half way through the year already - time is flying. But that means it's time to see how I did with the Finish Along in the last quarter. My original list was its normal ambitious self, and I have a final finish tonight. These hoops required very little effort and yet have sat on my desk for literally months, waiting for me to get to them. They took less than an hour on Thursday evening! I had planned to add more sewing - quilting or embroidery. But the reality is that the fabrics are so pretty, I didn't need to do much - on one of the horse hoops I've actually added nothing. These are for Jess and Mia for their bedroom walls. As for the rest of the list, I do have one monster finish. The 365 Quilt Challenge 2016 quilt is finished!! And I couldn't be more chuffed of what I achieved - read all about it here . And I finished three baby quilts, all using the Fancy Forest pattern by Elizabeth Hartman - you'll be seeing more like
