5 quilts April 17, 2023

 last report march 29, 2023

I try to work on these 5 quilts until they are done. Their turn in the UFO closet is over, and, they need to be finished one way or another. I decided that for 2023, rather than work a little on each one at a time, I would concentrate on just one. I still use the list to plan and look ahead. 

 This set shows finishes that seemed to take forever to finish. The new ones look more interesting to me as a set. I will be able to jump back and forth when I need a break. And, there will be more portable parts for social sewing.

1. scrappy pinwheels. is finished


2. Kristals- was my one monthly goal for March is done - finished


1. wool lady table runner. is finished 



1. wensleydale - I want to start cutting - haven't started

2. trip around the world class- I have been asked to teach for guild. I have the strips sewn together from my stash of flannels. I need to sub cut and start laying it out. That is the fun part.



3. Hand me down blocks are done, and, I am starting to piece rows - can't wait.


4. wonky courthouse steps 2 found, on the frame, quilted, trimmed, attach binding

5. Saturday soire block of the month. This an older UFO from 2013. I opened the box, and, all of the blocks are pieced. I have the setting kits to start.  I remember being in love with this quilt. I don't have a picture in the box, so now it will be a mystery. I chose red. There is a blue option, and when the lqs closed, I bought the blue version as part of their closing sale. For now, red is one of my 5 quilts until it is finished.

  1. Choosing five to concentrate on is a good idea -- and you did it! I think my favorites are Kristals and the plaid hand-me-downs. Nice assortment for the TATW demo!
