PLAYING CATCH UP........

 I've been working on several things.....trying to catch up on my monthly challenges..  I got my Color Challenge for August done.  The color is purple, but it looks like burgundy...it's a deep purple.


 I also got my for RSC 2022.. August Birdhouse..

And the Red Work quilt is still in the hoop.  Every time I walk past it, I put a stitch in.  This is my August UFO.  So I better get busy and get it done. 

I've also got the last of the trees done for my See Ya Later Alligator all pinned, and ready to sew and got the white strip pinned. 

 


This is what I'll be working on today.  And finishing up my Down on the Farm embroidery piece so I can start the next one...which will be a nesting hen.   There is a small area to the left that needs to finished up.

Well, I've got a lot of sewing to do, so better get to it.  Hope you all have a wonderful....

SOMETHING NEW......

 and something new to me.  Over at Elm Street Quilts they have a Kawandi Quilt.  I made one that has lots of scraps with no order or color order. I gathered up some of my scraps and started putting them together.  This is what I will be working on for a while.  It's a pretty big block, it won't take many to make this quilt.  I just need to sew them down.  I found a place that gives you the history behind Kawandi Quilts and great info.  Go HERE.

I was in the mood to embroider last night...so I dug out my Down on the Farm block 

 


and worked on it.  This is going to be a mostly embroidered quilt...I'll add in some applique quilt blocks to finish it up.  The next block is a Nesting Chicken.

I cut some purple baskets and have one pinned and ready to go..  I need to cut some more Muslin 61/2" blocks to do more.  I thing a couple more rows will get this one ready to be a filmsy.

And I worked on my Pine Trees for the See ya Later Alligator Blog Hop.

My One Monthly Goal and 2022 UFO Challenge is to get the Red Work quilt tied and add the binding.  The Tying is almost done, then deciding what color to make the binding...I'm thinking of using a black or green.

Well, that's it for today....hope you all have a great sewing....

I also got some Pink and Purple baskets done.  And I cut and pinned my center for my basket quilt  It's going to have flowers in it....I'm going to try something new for this...make some crocheted flowers along with fabric.  I may even slip in a fake flower.

 

And I got more blocks cut for my Hand Picked Quilt.  Now all I need to do is get my light box out and trace the patterns on them.

 This is the pattern I need to trace onto the squares.  These are only 4 1/2" squares

TO-DO TUESDAY TIME.......

 My To-Do Tuesday from last week....

1. Finish binding and label Zoe's Quilt.✔

2. Mare more Pink and Purple Baskets.✔

3.  Finish Wk 25  of  TAST and start Wk 27.πŸ‘Ž

2 out of 3 isn't bad, for me anyway.   I've been consumed with finishing Zoe's Flag Quilt this week.  It's finally finished.  I put the label on last night and now it's in the washer.  This is also for my UFO Blog Hop.

I did manage to get a couple more pink baskets pinned and ready to sew.  I'll be cutting out the purple ones today.  Plus I have to cut some more 8 1/2' muslin blocks.  


 Next project is to get the Red Work Baskets tied.  I put it in the hoop last week....well all I can say...it's still there.  I'll be working on the tying this week.  Then I have to decide what color to use for the binding.  I'm thinking about a Light Gray or Red.  I'll have to see if I have enough of those 2 colors to make binding.

My Hand Picked quilt has been sorley neglectd.  So it's going on this list this week.

 

My list for  July 26th through  August 2nd

1.  Tye Red Work Quilt

2. More Pink and Purple Baskets

3. Work on Hand Picked.

Have a wonderful.....

ZOE'S FLAGS ARE DONE....

This is my Monday Making project this week.  To get the label on and box this quilt up and send it off to Zoe.

Up next is the Red Work Baskets.  It's in the hoop waiting to be tied.

My Nature Notes this week is the Orange Lillies, they are all so pretty.  

I also did a few stitches on my embroidery.  I'm working on my TAST stitches.  TAST is located at Sharon's place...Pintangle.  Lots of stitches to learn.  This is where I'm at...the Fern Stitch.  It's taking forever to put all those stitches in.

Have a wonderful......
