A LITTLE OF THIS.....

 and a little of this...I've been working on several different things this week...jumping back and forth between them all.  I don't feel like I've accomplished anything at all.  So lets head down the list and see.


My Color Challenge for June..Mustard





The Crazy Quilt is being neglected.

 

 

 


 The Dresden Plates are still in a baggie, need to cut some Muslin fabric.




Started putting the Flags together

 


.

 Got a couple more Granny Squares done.





A Couple more Hand Picked Blocks done.





A couple more Pink Baskets.


Only one of these is anywhere close to being a filmsy.  The Flag quilt just needs to be sewed together and borders put on.  One thing for sure I'm doing today is get some muslin blocks cut for the Dresden Plates.  And work on my Hand Picked blocks.  I'm linking up with....Slow Sunday Stitching, Oh! Scrap, and Patchwork & Quilts.

Have an awesome stitching....

PROGRESS ON 2 AND SCRAPPY.....

 Tiny Tiles.  My pile of Tiny Tiles is growing.  I think it's time to start putting them together.

I put the border around the Christmas Sampler yesterday.  I really like the blue border!

And I put the border around the Dresden Plate.  I'm not sure about the black checked fabric....I may have to change that one.  I haven't sewed it on yet...so I can change if I want.

WHAT I LIKE TODAY....

 I finished my Santa's House embroidery piece last night.  Now what to do with it.....maybe a pillow, wall hanging, mini quilt, or a center piece for a NEW quilt.  I haven't decided yet.

 


Today I'll be putting the border on my Christmas Sampler.  I've got the fabric cut, just have to sew it on.

I'll also be putting the border on my Dresden Quilt.  Just have to cut the fabric.   See that pretty blue spot at the top of the picture...that's what I'm using for the border.

If I get those 2 things done, I'm got a couple of quilt blocks I need to work on.  And a couple more embroidery items to work on.  So I've got enough to keep me busy for today.

TO-DO TUESDAY STUFF......

 It's Tuesday, time for my To-Do Tuesday list...want to check out all the folks who make a list?  Head over to Gail's place, Texas Guilt Gal to find out.

My list from last week...

 1. More Fall Sampler Blocks👎

2. SAHRR✔

3. Finish October Circles👎

4. Do Wk. 11 of TAST✔

5. Put a border around Dresden Plate.👎

 1. The Fall Sampler is the same as last time...didn't get any blocks done.

2.  I did work on my SAHRR this week.  I've got the last of the star flowers pinned on.  I have 5 more star flowers to sew down.  The the next border goes on.


3. The circles didn't get worked on...still in the bag, waiting.

4.  The TAST stitch this week is French Knots.  Head over to Sharon's place, Pintangle to see all of her examples of French Knots.  This is what I'm working on.

I didn't get the border on the Dresden Plate.  I was rummaging around in my fabric to see what color to use for this quilt.  I decided to go with this one...the pretty blue at the top of the picture.  I just need to cut the strips and sew them on.

I've started reading What the Wind Knows by Amy Harmon.  


 

It's all about fining your heritage and love.   I've only got about 50 pages into the book, but I like it.

I was searching for recipes for Kidney Bean salad and found this one at the Bush's Beans site.  I think I'll give it a try....I'll let you know how it works out.

2022 PLANNING.....

 I have 3 quilt tops that are done, but have never put them together.  I made these years ago, they were some of the first quilts I made.  I would really like to get them done next year.  I seem to get things done when I join  up with other folks.  So I have decided to join the 2022 Joining Party, being hosted by Quilting Jet Girl.  

The 3 quilts I'll be working on in 2022 are...

1. Indiana Leaf Quilt, needs sandwiched, tied and binding.

2. Under the Sea, needs sandwiched, tied and binding.  This is the first quilt I ever made!  It may be a little wonky and seams don't match...but I'm very proud of it!

3. Dresden Plate...the first one I ever made...needs sandwiched, tied, and binding.

I've cut and am ready to finish up the last of the blocks for my Christmas Sampler.  Then it will be putting it all together.

Here are a couple I've been working on.

Christmas Ornaments

Teddy Bear

That's it for this year....I'll be back January 1, 2022....have a safe and happy holiday!!!
