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.👎

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......

SUNDAY STITCHING.......

 I started a new quilt project...as if I need another one.  I'm working on a Down on the Farm quilt.  I have lots of pages in a coloring book of of farm animals and other farm items.  So I thought I'd make one.  I'm doing some in embroidery and some quilt blocks.  I've got several patterns traced to embroider. The first block in this quilt will be a bunny.

 I' sent a list of fabric requirements to Hobby Lobby with my son last week.  I needed some purple...I was down to bits and pieces.  He brought this back.

See the purple on the left...I decided to use this with my Pink Baskets.  So I'm making Purple baskets.  I've got a few all ready done and some pinned.  You can see them in the last picture on the hoop.

Today I'll be working on Zoe's Flag Quilt.  Finish tying it and get the binding started. 

 

 But first I have to clean off the hoop...it's a catchall for "stuff" I'm working on.

Linking up with...Slow Sunday Stitching and Oh! Scrap. 

Have a wonderful stitching....

TUESDAY STUFF......

 It's Tuesday, so it's time to check and see how my To-Do Tuesday went last week.

My list from last week....

1. Sandwich quilts.✔

2. Lay out Pink Baskets.✔

3, Put quilt room in order.👎

Last Friday I spent the afternoon sandwiching quilt filmsys.  I got 4 of them done.  Zoe's Flag Quilt is in the hoop

  and the 1. Red Work & Hearts, 2.Boo Quilt, and 3. Christmas Sampler are waiting their turn to be tied.

I also got the Pink Baskets laid out.  I really like the Green with the Pink.  It's going to take a whole lot more baskets to get this quilt done.  Thankfully I have been stocked up on Pink fabric!  I need to order some purple fabric, I'm down to bits and pieces of that one.

 

 As for the quilt room being back in order...I did it, but it lasted about 1 day.....now it's back to being disorganized again.  Next time I'll take a picture...lol.  

I also got another TAST  block done, taking place over at Pintangle  every Tuesday.  Crossed Buttonhole Stitch.  This is for Week 24.  Now I'm only 2  weeks behind. 

Now it's time to make my list for next week.

July12th through July 18th...

1. Organize the quilt room.

2. Make more basket blocks.

3. Finish tying Zoe's Flags and start the binding.

4. Work on my Hand Picked Quilt.  

5, Crochet some more Granny Squares.

6, Do Wk 25 and 26 TAST blocks.

Well, that's it for today...I'll be heading over to Texas Quilt Gals' place to check out everyone's To-Do Lists.  Hop over and check them out yourself.

Have an........

IT'S MONDAY....

so for Monday Making  I'm working on Zoe's Flag quilt...will get the tying done and start on the binding.  Then I can box it up and send it to her.

I started making some little Stars...they are done on 3 1/2"  muslin squares.  

 I'm thinking about using these with my Hand Picked quilt.

My purple Birdhouse for RSC 2022 is done.  It looks like marroon but it's acutlly a purple color, kind of, that's all the "purple" I had.  Going to have to order some purple fabric.

So that's it for today...have a great...

4 QUILT TOPS......

 sandwiched.  Friday I spent the afternoon sandwiching quilt tops.  I got 4 of them done.  First up is Zoe's Flag Quilt.  It's in the hoop being tied.  

Next is my Boo Quilt...this poor quilt top has been neglected for 5 years.  It was time to take it out of the box and finish it.  

Next one on the list is the Red Work Baskets.  I know everyone said to put the baskets on point, but I didn't have enough baskets to do that.  And besides I didn't actually know how to go about it.  I added some hearts to the mix and this is what I got.

And last on the list is my Christmas Sampler.  I really like the blue border on this.  Makes the whole quilt pop.  Well, the picture doesn't show the blue border very well.  Oh, well...you get the idea.

Now comes the hard work, tying  and binding.  So I'll be working on these 4 quilts for a couple of weeks.  I'll post them here when finished.  They will go into my Quilts Finished  Tab at the top of my blog.  

As for today, my Slow Sunday Stitching will be working on tying Zoe's Flags.  And start the binding.

Oh Scrap!

Have and awesome.....

TRYING TO FINISH......

Since it's Sunday,  I thought I'd work on Zoe's quilt before she goes home on Friday.  The flags are all done. Had Zoe pick what she wanted for a border...she picked this Gingham Green.  I'm adding the border now, 3 more to go.  She also picked black as her binding.  This is my Slow Stitching Sunday , and my Oh! Scrap project.

 The new color for RSC, July, is purple.  So went digging, but I'm really short on the purple...this is all I could gather.

I'm pretty sure I can get a Birdhouse out of this.  I'll have to start gathering  all my patterns, scissors and threads together and get busy.  This is the pattern I'm using for the birdhouse, minus the bird.

When I get tired of working on blocks, I'll dig into Book 4 of Dirary of Wimpy Kid by Jeff Kinney.  I'm really enjoying reading this series with my grand daughter.

I've been watching New Amsterdam.  I didn't know it was based on a book, so I had to go and track it down.  I found it on Amazon.  The book is Twelve Patients by Eric Manheimer, MD .  I've just started it.  It's very interesting reading.

Well, if I'm going to get Zoe's quilt finished, I better get off the computer and start sewing.  Hope all  of you have a wonderful stitching.....

FINALLY A COOL OFF.....

 came...it only lasted a couple days.  It's back to hot again.  So I took advantage of the cool down and did some crocheting.  I am doing the Crochet Along over at Jolly Jabber.  They have one for yarn, quilting and Cross Stitch, interested, just click on the link above and see...you might join in too.   I've got quite a few Granny Squares stacked up.  

These are going to ripped out and used in the bunch of granny squares I'm making.

I also got  my Blue Birdhouse made for RSC 2022 Color Challenge.  It reminded me of the big Blue Spruce tree in our front yard.  There are always birds sitting on the limbs.

I laid out Zoe's Flags today.  This is going to be a lap quilt...for Zoe to use at her practice meets.  Her legs get cold!

What I'll be working on today is the SHARR...it's almost a filmsy.  This quilt top is made with all scraps..so I think it qualifies for Oh! Scraps.  Just needs a little more embroidery and a border.  

Hope you all have an awesome.....

MONDAY MAKING......

I've been working on my little pink baskets.  I've got 3 finished.  

 

And I've got several more pinned.  Ready to sew down.  I've also got 2 more Flags done for my niece, Zoe.

My son came home from visiting the garden center with this beauty....it's a Dahlia.

It will be added to the front garden  in a few days.  When it's done blooming, I'll get to see it again next year as it's an annual.
