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.
There is not much change on this report, but, it still helps me keep track.
I finished 1 ufo in July - 8 th for the year
Strip twist jelly roll surprise is finished

I worked on these older Ufos to finish them:
scrappy twirl - I have prepared the border and need to add it to the top. As I was digging through project boxes looking for a quilt, I discovered an entire batch of cut pieces for scrappy twirl. That changes everything. I kept wondering why the near -finished top was so small. Apparently, I cut most of the quilt and put it in a box. But, I needed more, so, I cut a smaller batch, and put them in a different box. I have been making lists of my options to finish, and I am exhausted with the whole project. I am retiring this quilt for another day.
scrappy snowballs -2 inch scrap block. It was my one monthly goal for June to have a top. It didn't get done. I have all the rows made, and ready to assemble. These are 2 out of 4 blocks per row. I will make it my one monthly goal for August to have a top.
hollow nine - rainbow scrap challenge from 2023 that needs the border -Which I intend to applique. I need more flowers cut in a variety of colors. I think I am about ready to do that.
holy toledo - I have all the blocks made, and then, sewn into 4sies. Now, it is time for rows.
orange spiderweb it is quilted and ready for binding.
My July PHD report
scrap cutting
I have added another goal to the 5 quilts project. I want to take one day a month and cut scraps. I will have plenty to choose from since I really didn't cut any for 2024, and the bags of uncut scraps are piling up, all over the fabric room.
I missed 2 Fridays in July for open sew, so, I did not cut any scraps for July
quilts to be quilted:
1. orange spiderweb
2. wedding ring I have had this ready for a few years, but, I am afraid to quilt it myself. I want it to be special and I don't do special. So I will work to talk my self into it..... some day
Looking forward to August - I hope I get more accomplished
