Finish Along - Fourth Quarter Goals

Since the third quarter wasn't very productive on the finishing thing {because of the little, insignificant, moving-halfway-across-the-country thing}, I'm posting this early and getting moving on the list.

Once again, this is a repost of my neverending UFO list, with a few specific items highlighted as must-dos in this quarter.

Orders
Family T-Shirt Quilt #2 - in progress {my only finish last quarter!}
Chevron Baby Quilt - cutting
Matching PJ set - ordered
Gobble Gobble Mini - ordered
Pillow Shams - ordered
Vera Bradley Stars Quilt - ordered
Witch Table Runner - ordered
H is for Henry - binding
Squadron T-Shirt Quilt - ordered

Rainbow Boat Quilt - piecing, due Nov. 15
Wedding Quilt #1 - cutting
Wedding Quilt #2 - ordered, due Jan. 15

I'm kind of freaking giddy about how awesome this came out. Like, I can't describe how much. It's a level of professionalism that I never felt my quilts had, because I couldn't free-motion quilt at home and my straight lines were...boring. And usually not very good, with puckers and all. All the sudden, I feel like I'm making REAL quilts.

And kids, this is just a panto. Wait until I get the nerve to really quilt something. I'm studying up all the free-motioning quilting blogs and practicing doodling with my elbow off the table. {I'd go get some of the books from the base library, but the government shut down. Libraries are non-essential.}

And oh, there will be a finished post tomorrow. Because when you're this giddy about a quilt, you get the binding on that.very.night.

  5. Epic! Sorry to hear libraries are non-essential. Wish Congress was non-essential! Can't wait to see finished projects.
