It's another year of the Finish Along. And whilst the format has changed slightly to make it more Instagram focused, I've decided to still post a list on my blog as a way of keeping myself accountable and recording my finishes!
So firstly I have a few carryover items:
Joshua's advent calendar: I got this started but not finished and it wasn't missed this year but I think it will be next year when his Lordship is nearly 2. So I'm posting it here in Q1 in an effort to finish it early and not at the last minute I'm not going to promise that it won't appear on Q2, Q3 and Q4 as well though!
And the same thoughts about Joshua's Santa Sack - though I did pick up a great fabric in the post-Christmas sales for this, so his will be different (and a little less pink) than the girls. Again, expect to see this on Q2, Q3 and Q4 - I'll probably not start it until December 2020.... but you never know!
Item three is the Sisterhood Quilt block I made on retreat last October - I have tote-based plans for this and I've bought an alphabet pattern to hep with the reverse. I've also got plans for a second tote bag in mostly blues, using the same alphabet pattern.
My Fancy Forest quilt is getting closer and closer to the finish line. It's now basted and ready for quilting.
A baby quilt - 2020 is going to be heavy on baby quilts! This one is an Awesome Ocean one as I enjoyed making the full size one so much! And the recipient's big sister needs a matching cushion I think!
I made some tubs at Christmas out of batiks... and not-so-subtle hints were dropped. So I need to make another set.
And while I'm at it, some tubs for hair bobbles would be a good idea too... they end up all over the house!
I started a Unicorn embroidery for Mia last year. It needs finishing.
I also started a Tall Tales quilt for Mia last year. That too needs finishing...
I have a Meadowland quilt all cut out - I thought it would be a quick make, That was a year ago. There's a new quilt-along kicking off in February so I'm planning on joining in and finishing this. It's in all Pinkerville by Tula Pink and I love it!
I would also like to finish the Sharks Dinner block of the month I followed last year, but there's a lot of work still to do on this one, so maybe I'll settle for some progress.
The blueberry park hexies, started two years ago, were a project I was surprised to pick up again just after Christmas. But I've run with it and now I'm pretty close to a fairly sizeable quilt top.
Mandolin: an EPP quilt top. There's also quite a lot of work to go on this before it's finished, but already this year I've prepped the remaining five blocks, so that's progress.
Tula Nova: this needs quilting and for some reason it's just not calling me. February will be two years since I started this quilt and it holds so many memories...
City Sampler... that quillt I started nearly 7 years ago....
Skirt Pouch... from a skirt...for a friend. The fabrics scares me a bit!
Placemats - pink and linen I think. For a wedding present.
Kinship rainbow, which is a quilt top, but not yet basted, and I don't know what to put on the back yet.
Crumb quilt: another quilt top, but I do know what I'm backing this one with.
Neon City: pulling out the oldies here - this was my quilt from #100days100blocks the first time round.... it's a pile of blocks and a pile of sashing - I got stuck at my favourite part...
"Love" hot water bottle cover. I need a new hot water bottle cover... obviously. I also need to do something with the Love block I made recently.
Not a bad list! Twenty-four items, and a good mix of the maybe and the unrealistic!

I finished a Preppy the Whale quilt last year and now I need to make two matching cushions. I really just need to get these done as it's been hanging around too long.
