HI....

 Nothing new to report...making progress on the Fall Sampler...pictures later.  My quilt batting came today...so hopefully I'll get the umbrella quilt sandwiched soon.  

 I'm also using the Umbrella Quilt as my OMG for October.  Hopefully it won't take long to get  this together.  I'm also doing the UFO Number Draw Challenge over at Dreamworthly Quilts...the number this month is 5....number 5 on my list is my 12" Crazy Quilt.  So I'll also be working on that one this month. 

Since it's Thursday for another 3 1/2 hours...I'm going to include some likes  for I Like Thursday...this is going on over at Not Afraid of Color...

I like a new to me t.v. show I've been watching on Netflix...Designated Survivor with Keifer Sutherland ...it's really suspenseful....

On Hulu, I've been watching Homicide Hunter...really good show.  The show is based on the files of Joe Kenda...

Well I guess that's it for today...hope you all have a wonderful.....

TA DA TODAY....

 I've got a Ta Da today...The Valentine Quilt is finished...this is also for To-Do Tuesday.  My list from September 8th through the 14th.

1. Finish the Valentine Quilt✔

2. Start embellishing the RSC 2020 blocks✔

3. Lay out the Umbrellas on my design "floor".✔

1. It was a pretty productive week...worked on my RSC 2020 blocks...started embellishing them.  Also got the Valentine Quilt done...yea!  This quilt is also my OMG and UFO Number Draw Challenge.

 2. Started the embellishments on my RSC 2020 blocks.  I've got 2 of them done.

Block 2

3.  I put the Umbrella's out on the design wall "floor"...this is what I came up with, but that may change.  I've got a few more blocks to do and then one will be put together.  Haven't decided if I want to put a border between the rows or leave it as is.  The bottom row needs another blue one.  I like this!  I just may leave it without between borders and put a wide border on the edges.  What do you think?  Between borders or edge border???

The TAST stitch this week over at Pintangle is Whipped and Double Whipped Chain Stitch...this is my stitching.

To-Do for...

September 15th through September 21st

1. Work on RSC 2020 blocks

2. Work on Cat Quilt

3. Do 4 more blue umbrella blocks.

Have a great.....

UFO'S...WE ALL HAVE THEM.....

I have lots of them!!  I've been trying to get some of them done this year.  So far I've got 5 of them done...
4th of July Quilt, ABC Quilt, Easter Quilt, Happy Scrappy Quilt, and Spring Quilt.  The thing that helped me get these done is a UFO Challenge...I was blog hopping one day and ran across Dreamworthy Quilts...Ann has a UFO challenge going on over at her place.....the Number Draw UFO Challenge....want to know more about this...just click on the link. 
My Number Draw for July is Zoe's Quilt....

sorry to say I didn't get it done.  It was so blasted hot in July...high 80's and 90's with high humidity...toooo hot to have a quilt laying on my lap.  But I'm still plugging away at it...hoping to get it tied at least in the next couple days...the binding may have to wait...we'll see.

The August number for the UFO challenge is number 7 on my list...but I've already done number 7...the Easter Quilt

So I've bumped another quilt up to # 7....my UFO for August is the Valentine Quilt

the top is done, just needs sandwiched, tied and binding put on.  This is another small quilt...so it shouldn't take too long to finish....just have to get in the mood to drag out the cutting table and walk around it a gazzillion times....I may also put the Boo Quilt together while I have the cutting table out.  It's also a small quilt.

Hope everyone has an awesome.....

A KIND OF PROGRESS......

To- Do Tuesday

June 23 through June 29
1. Tie Zoe's quilt✔
2. Make more Crazy Quilt Blocks✔
3. Work on Cat Quilt✔

To-Do #1
Been working on Zoe's quilt...it's been so blasted hot and humid here...that's it really hard to work on a quilt...even with the air conditioner on...it's hot and muggy.  I'm doing this quilt for the UFO Number Draw Challenge and OMG for July.

 To-Do #2
I'm all caught up on my RSC blocks...January - June...waiting to see what the new color for July is.  Now I just have to embellish them.

To-Do #3

 I got 1 Cat block done.   Not quite sure how this quilt is going to turn out.  Haven't made up my mind as what to do with it.  I'll have to think about this one a while.  My cat still needs eye balls and whiskers..

Over at Sharon's place, Pintangle, it's TAST Tuesday(Take a Stitch Tuesday).  The stitch this week is Crossed Buttonhole...here is mine...It's a little wonky, but that's ok with me.  I'll get better at it with lots of practice...I'm planning on using the TAST stitches I've been learning on the Crazy quilt blocks for my RSC.

To-Do List
June 29th through July 6th
1. Work on tying Zoe's Quilt.(is a iffy thing as it's suppose to be in high 80's and 90's.)
2.  Do embellishment on Crazy Quilt blocks.
3.   Do some more Cat blocks.
4.  Cut and make binding for Zoe's Quilt.
5.  Sort through fabric for Red Work Quilt.

Have a great....
