October Goals
1) Work on my Jean's Jeans Quilt
I have been working away steadily on this
since we have been on holidays. I have half of the strips put together. It will
be finished before we get home
2) Finish all the blocks for Vanishing Hours
This was an at home project and I did get
the extra blocks I decided I wanted for the extra row made before we left home
3) Finish prepping Hand work on Tea Shop Quilt. Cut
all the squares for the appliques squares. Start work on it
Have finished all the applique blocks I had
made before I left home and have made some new ones and finished a couple of
those too. Its been a lovely project to have with me
4) Make some mini quilts as gifts.
I can’t think what I meant by this when I
wrote it. I haven’t made any mini quilts though. Maybe it was an extra to do if
I got my other project ie Jean’s Jeans finished
5)
Practice some of the stuff from Photography
class on Craftsy
Nope it hasn't happened. Well I have been
taking photos (heaps since I checked in mid-month) and have been using my small
camera. I have been thinking about my shots and composing them a little more
and working on using a few other settings on it rather than just A for
automatic so maybe that counts.

So I can say that I have accomplished 4 of
my 5 goals for October
Now for my November goals
1) Finish Jean’s Jean quilt
2)
Continue working on the teashop applique. If I
get the blocks all done start to put it together if circumstances allow
3)
Make piano keys border for Vanishing hours quilt
4)
Make October and November BOMs from local quilt
group
That should just about cover it, given that I will be
travelling for all of November. If I do get the Jeans quilt and the border and
the blocks all made I will have to come up with another machine project. Same
with if I finish my hand project. I bought a quilt magazine in Sydney that had
an embroidery pattern in it that I might have a go at if I have time..
What about you? Do you have some projects in mind for this
month? Perhaps you are going to make some gifts. Tell me about them
Your jeans quilt is looking wonderful. Very inspirational!
ReplyDeletethanks Christine. I am really happy with it although its a long way from perfect. My circles weren't quite right to start with and that put the rest of it off a bit but its worked out pretty well and whilst it won't win any prizes its going to do the job it was designed to do... and its almost finished!
