Finished<\/strong> 2013 Projects:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Corner Store<\/a>: Finished on 1\/1\/2013 YAY!<\/li>\n
  2. The Garden<\/a>. Finished on 1\/5\/2013 YAY!<\/li>\n
  3. Stepping Stones<\/a>: Finished on 2\/14\/2013 YAY!<\/li>\n
  4. Fabric of the Year 2011<\/a>: Finished on 2\/27\/2013 YAY<\/li>\n
  5. Calm<\/a>: Finished on 3\/14\/2013 YAY!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    I still think the next projects on the list will be harder, especially since I haven’t worked on them, except for the Aqua-Red Sampler. They are older, in some cases, or VERY unfinished. I am still hopeful.<\/p>\n

    Still WIPs<\/strong><\/p>\n

    1. Aqua-Red Sampler<\/a> \u2013 Frances<\/a>  is working diligently and I started the foundation piecing tutorial<\/a>.<\/li>\n
    2. The Tarts Come to Tea<\/a>: I still haven\u2019t worked on this since April 2011, though I did think<\/em> about working on it. Does that count for something? I really do need to get back to the quilting. I am mad at myself for making such good progress and then getting sidetracked. I thought quilting the Whole Cloth quilt would get me back in the swing of quilting, but apparently not.<\/li>\n
    3. Pointillist Palette #4: Fourth is a series of 6 quilts; needs tiny square patches sewn together. Mrs. K. gave me more PP fabric and I won some from a giveaway. I still think it is a sign that I need to work on this. Leaders and enders.<\/li>\n
    4. See<\/a>: needs satin stitching. Small, also a possibility for finishing. I really have the feeling I came so close to working on this project this month.<\/li>\n
    5. Self Portrait<\/a>: started in 2006 at a class at Quilting Adventures<\/a> in Richmond, Virginia. I like the piece, but don\u2019t know where to go from where I am. Mouth? Hair? The attitude I need to have is that I can’t ruin it; there is always more fabric.<\/li>\n
    6. Under the Sea<\/a>: class project; like the design, but not the colors much.<\/li>\n
    7. Flower Sugar Hexagon<\/a>: I thought about sewing more hexagons together. Although not difficult, sewing Y seams is a bit of a chore, so I get tired of doing it after awhile. I could, perhaps, use leaders and enders to get this piece moving?<\/li>\n
    8. Young Man\u2019s t-shirt quilt: have cut up the t-shirts and am still in the process of applying fusible. He cleaned out his drawers and found some more t-shirts to add to the quilt. Oh Yay! <\u2013 just a bit of sarcasm. He asked me again for another quilt, so I think this one is next in line. I plugged in his heating mattress pad, though, which should keep him quiet for a bit longer.<\/li>\n
    9. New: FOTY 2012<\/a>: top, finished, though I can’t decide if I need a quilting border. Working on the back.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      I still have a few more WIPs than I do finished projects. Again, I have made progress on clearing out old projects and I am pleased.<\/p>\n

      Ready for Quilting

      4. New: Super Secret Project: At the quilter.  Stay tuned. \";-)\" Not on original list<\/li>\n
      5. Infinity blocks<\/a>: blocks sewn together into a quilt top, borders on. Back and binding made; ready to be quilted.<\/li>\n
      6. A-B-C (A-Z) BAMQG Challeng<\/a>e<\/a> \u2013At the quilter. Due April 1.<\/li>\n
      7. New: Sparkle Pink<\/a> – At the quilter.<\/li>\n
      8. New: Swoon<\/a> – At the quilter.<\/li>\n
      9. Spiderweb<\/a>: Top is together, binding is made. This is at the quilter.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        Please note that even if you combine the two lists above, I do not have 26 projects on this list anymore. That is something, IMO.<\/p>\n
