I've been working on a few projects lately. I've never been one to start a project while working on another, but I've thrown that theory out the door.
The week before I left for Oceanside I made a couple of baby quilts for Whit and Marta who both had baby gifts to give. I have to say - I LOVE the girl quilt we made for Marta. I didn't snap a picture, but I bought fabric to do it again. Turned out so cute. We used the quick method to get them done, but they still turned out so cute.
This last week I quilted a few quilts for people. This applique quilt is so cute! Not necessarily the quilting but the actual quilt. It was so much fun to do.
Sunday night I stayed up til about 1am finishing the quilt top of my Blissful Zig Zag quilt. I love this quilt! I am so excited to get the borders put on and get it quilted. No idea what I'm going to do with it, but I am loving it.
I also have all my blocks sewn together for the Easy Bricks quilt. Now I just have to start sewing them together. Hopefully I can find some time this week.
I also have a quilt to do for my mom - prepping work to start before the weekend - and cut out a quilt for Whit and a baseball one for my boys. Most importantly I have a cute little quilt to get started on for a shower in August. I'm excited to see how its going to turn out.
I use not let myself start on a new project til the other one was completed - I think I've gotten over that. I really like having a few going on in different stages so if I have a minute here or there I can pick up something and feel like I'm making progress. Is that a theme in my life? Making progress - I feel like I've got to be productive....wonder why.
It feels good to get a few things done!
