The last few months were extra busy and I barely touched my sewing machine. It felt rather odd, because for the last many years I usually do something quilt related at least six out of seven days. Life is still busy, but the cause of the extra-busy has finished and I'm slowly getting back to normal.
Quilts I'm actively working on:
1. Surprise quilt. It's all put together and needs to be quilted - it's up next
3. Stash Bee 2024. I put this together, only to realize that I put it together incorrectly. I also need to make another column of blocks to make the proportions work out a little bit better.
4. Fabric from Christmas. The quilt finally got bound and just needs official pictures.
Quilts with no progress since last time:
5. Stash Bee 2023. I chose dark greens and yellows as the colors, thinking deep forest with yellow flowers, but several people said they were reminded of Green Bay Packers instead. I think for 2025 Stash Bee I'll ask for some of the same pattern in different colors. Blue/orange? Red/orange? I have until May to decide.
6. baby quilt. I had started this for a baby of someone in my Mom's group, but I've only seen her a few times and I'm not going to finish it before the group disbands for summer. I think I'll put it aside for the next baby.
7. Scrap quilt. Last time I wasn't expecting any progress in the next six months; that was correct. It's still waiting.
10. Temperature quilt. I need to quilt this. It's from 2017, so it's rather low on the priority list.
11. Other grandma quilts: There are still quilts from my friend's grandma to be finished and/or quilted
12. Jan's quilts: A different friend found some quilt tops...I forget where. They're on the older side, but just need to be quilted up
13. Duvet into quilt. I gave my parents a new quilt, and so I took their duvet cover back. (I made the duvet cover ten years ago.) I'm planning on making it into a light quilt. I need to separate the front and back and then quilt
Quilts I haven't started but don't want to forget
