5 quilt June 2024 report
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. My top priority this year are the quilts in the to be quilted closet.
I love to piece. I've noticed that a quilt lives a long time in the ufo closet for one of two reasons. Borders and quilting. I can almost piece a quilt in the same amount of time it takes to go from borders to finishing. And there were, are, so many inspirational quilts available to do.
I finished 6 ufos in June.
In June I wanted to finish 2 quilts In the 'to be quilted closet' before I did any other UFOs. I did the two I planned for June. I finished....
1. maple leaves - finished which I gave to a dear friend
64 x72 |
2. love jelly roll - My one monthly goal for June - is finished
48 x 52 |
I worked on these older Ufos to finish them
1. scrappy mountain majesties is finished
65 x72 |
56 x 68 |
1. cathedral stars - It is an older ufo from 2016, a Bonnie hunter pattern. the top is finished and sent to the to be quilted closet.

2. scrappy twirl new in March - I have all the blocks pieced or so I thought. I want it to be bigger and will add a few more blocks and will start the rows. I am really dragging my feet on this one. That is what happens when I didn't have a plan at the start.
3. garlic knots - I have started building the borders while I am joining the rows. I cut many of the pieces for the sashings and borders last year for the rainbow scrap challenge according to the color of the month. It has been really nice to have the pieces ready to go.
corner blocks |
4. dark strings needed a border- from string quilt revival book - finished and sent to the to be quilted closet.
