How many projects can I work on at once?
This one is a commissioned project. For a friend. It's actually something I have wanted to do for years, but I am a little OCD, so the design was what was stopping me. . .She gave me the design, so I can work around that!
I follow Bonnie (of Quiltville - the link is her blog), she has the best site! I love all the scrappy ideas she has!! Well right now she is hosting a mystery quilt along, and I thought I would participate. good thing it doesn't matter who finishes first ;) The first part is to make 172 2" strips that are pink/green/pink. I have 16 ;) I have a lot to go. I tried to use as much from scraps as possible, but I just don't have that much pink or green.
This is my "basket" weave quilt. Well more squares. I need to lay it out and see how many more I need to do, I should be getting close (I hope so!)
I am still working on triangles for my values quilt. and I need to pull out my brown bag quilt and just FINISH it! although I have a few months til it's "due" so maybe something will hit me so that I can make it just a little bigger.
My sister's tee shirt quilt is coming along nice. I have decided how I am going to do the sashing, I just need to get it put on ;) I just want to do it perfect! Cause heavens knows her first quilt was far from perfect (but she still loves it, so I am ok with that :) ).
I've still had no luck finding my background for my BOM :/ I even tried a Jo-Ann's in Indy. So far I have looked in Minnesota, Wisconsin and three stores (plus I called three) in Indiana! Let's hope that Iowa has SOMETHING!
