To Do Tuesday #42 - Making a Start from The Quilt Yarn

Well, let's see how we went. This is what I had on my list

- once my thread arrives make a start on the filling of the quilt above once I worked out a bit of a plan on how to go about that✅

- baste another little charity quilt and hopefully start the quilting on that ...maybe another clamshell allover✅

- cut the pieces for a couple more cat blocks ❌

- continue on my knitting projects✅

As I was waiting for my thread, I completed the last two (of the four I was given) of the charity quilts. The first one was ...

To Do Tuesday #34 from The Quilt Yarn

My list from last week:

- baste one of the scrap quilts on the machine and start the quilting. Will do a Baptist Fan design over it, so that will take a bit of time but I am really looking forward to it.✅

- clean up the sewing room a bit. Following the last few weeks with working on several projects, it is rather messy and I do need uncluttered space around me when quilting.✅

- construct another hanging sleeve for a wall hanging that has been sitting behind my sewing machine for the last two years at least (can you believe it ...

My New Rulers Have Arrived! from The Quilt Yarn

I have been waiting patiently for my new rulers from Michael Quilts. I ordered them about mid-March and they arrived a few days ago which was incredibly fast considering the distance. Had one of the charity quilts ready to go...a cute little Nine Patch quilt in brown tones.

The rulers were packaged well and came with a page of instructions on how to use them. I have got the original Fab5 Fan set consisting of 3,5,7,9 and 11in half circle (Michael Quilts also sells an expansion set with the even numbers now).

I have done several ...

To-Do-Tuesday 22/3/23 from The Quilt Yarn

Another week has passed with some progress. I seem to be working in starts and stops.

My tasks for the week were:

pin and baste another charity quilt

- make a start on the drawing of the wholecloth quilt✅

- make a few more scrap quilt blocks.

Lots happening over at our place though which did not leave a lot of time for quilting. We have been working on getting my father-in-law's house ready for sale. Just one more clean up around the house and then it is ready to go on sale after Easter. It's been a long and ...

Also finished my handout for the upcoming wholeclass workshop which was not on the list. ✅✅

The week was spent finishing the cute little giraffe charity quilt, i.e. attaching the binding and the label

So very ...

To Do Tuesday Linky Party - 3/1/23 from The Quilt Yarn

The Linky Party's host has changed. The Linky is now being hosted by Carol from Quilt Schmilt.

So, let the fun begin:

My list was small last week:

- cut out the fabric for a new pattern so that I can put this together without interruption. The fabric is washed and ready to go.❌

- have a look at and think about the Peter Rabbit Quilt that I have agreed on quilting for somebody else. Will show a photo of this next time.✔

Well, did not look at the new pattern and started the Peter Rabbit Quilt instead. I am doing ...

I have been busy! from The Quilt Yarn

Finished my little pink baby quilt

It came out at 31in x 40-1/8in (78.7cm x 101.9cm)

Looks great...here are a few photos of my handiwork

Even had a suitable backing that I have been saving for 'I don't know what...' since the early 2000s. Suited this little quilt perfectly.

I have put it up in my Etsy shop so hopefully it will go at some stage soon. I am seriously running out of space over here.

I am linking up to Texas Quilt Girl who is hosting her last To Do Tuesday today. Thank you ...

To Do Tuesday - 21/12/22 from The Quilt Yarn

Last week was a whirlwind of Christmas shopping. Not very organised this year...went to the city about four times! Now there is only food shopping left which we will have to do later in the week. I am looking forward to just relaxing.

Last week's goals were small, but achievable

- stitch a simple charm square quilt together from fabric that has been sitting in my stash for many years.

- make a start on a new pattern, i.e. get the cutting of the fabric done

- prepare for Christmas which of course we left to the last minute again ...

To Do Tuesday - 18/10/22 from The Quilt Yarn

Belated link up for To Do Tuesday over at Texas Quilt Gal...

Well, this time I have got an excuse though...our cat ended up in vet hospital last week, which was very traumatic for all involved. She suddenly fell very ill last Sunday...it looked like a stroke actually, but when we took her to the vet they said that was uncommon for cats. Nevertheless they suspected a neurological problem, so she had to stay for a while. As the evening approached though, we had to go and transfer her to a 24/7 vet hospital. She was then ...

Misleading title as it is Thursday here already. However, I missed last week's Tuesday and do not want to fall off by the wayside again.

On my list the previous Tuesday were these tasks:

First time participating in the To-do-Tuesday Linky Party over at Home Sewn By Us. Have been wanting to do this for a few weeks but keep missing Tuesdays all the time. Seems to come along too quickly.

1. Natalia Bonner’s 9 Patchalong.

She is releasing two videos per week and I need to be on the ball to keep up. This week I stitched 2 of the blocks, but have heaps more to go...need to finish the filling of the sashings and the borders ...
