summary of 2023 projects
fish school/ kismet is all ready to assemble and packed away for a vacation in the ufo closet
I made the necessary string blocks after the blocks were done according to the rsc colors.
I finished the center of the top for hollow nine. I have cut the wide borders in white and made green vines to add a floral applique .
somewhere in the middle of the year I forgot my strip weave project. I made 12 blocks and I wanted 20. oops.
I was making nine patches for a quilt called diffussion from quilted twins but I wasn't sure how I wanted to make them into a quilt. I was making them in fall colors.

I made stars in in the color of the month in with bright batiks and now the top is ready to finish
I cut for the 2023 stashbuster each month - I don't see any mention of that in my posts. I think I made one block.
I made sashing and border strips by color for garlic knots and I made QSTs for box kite

Next year. Hard to believe it is time to think about 2024.
1. Across the wide missourri. -I plan to include an older UFO that needs applique. I am intimidated with applique, so, I think making something, maybe only one thing, per month might help me overcome my fears.
2. sugar grove - a quiltville pattern made with a gazillion HSTs. I thought I would include cutting and sewing HSTS by color.
3 2024 stashbuster - there will be a new one I can cut according to colors.
4 lemoyne star - I have the die and thought I would cut for each color. I might want to make a reverse one along with the one in color.
I have a green drawer that won't close, and my 2 1/2 inch strips are a mess. I would like to make a few donation quilts.

Great set of multiple blocks! Once the blocks are gathered the quilts will go together quickly!!
ReplyDeleteYour hollow 9s are making a pretty quilt! I'll enjoy seeing how you finish that one off.
ReplyDeleteHowever, do you keep all those projects straight? I have no doubt some will be finished soon. Appliqué terrified me, too. I'm left handed and could never find someone who demonstrated needle turn for me and my fellow lefties. The game changer was when I discovered Whisperlite. (Not affiliated, just like the product.) However, it only works well on medium to large patches.
ReplyDeletePlenty of plans for 2024, we've all been thinking like that lately. You have lots of pretty blocks sets to show so far, I think the hollow nines are really pretty.
ReplyDeleteYou have some very fun RSC projects in the works. Looking forward to seeing your projects in 2024. I probably need to join you with a scrappy RSC from the scrap bins, my 2.5 strips are almost full!
ReplyDeleteYou are so organized and a great planner too! No doubt 2024 will be a good one. Thanks for sharing on my weekly show and tell, Wednesday Wait Loss.

ReplyDeleteMy closet has become a UFO closet too LOL I have hung project bags on hangers and have them on the rod.
