I joined up with the Chookshed Stitchers 2024 Challenge for the motivation to move projects forward, and perhaps even finish a few. It has been fun and I’ve even accomplished a few things!
If you would like to see what my accomplishments have been so far, then click here .
Last January, participants publicly posted a list of 10 numbered projects. Each month a number is drawn, and the corresponding project is worked on. There are linkups where projects can be posted and participants can cheer one another on.
The number 5 was drawn for May. My number 5 is to make Unicorn pillows. You can see my project list here.
I believe I purchased this pattern many moons ago while out shopping somewhere with my daughter.
I did a quick Google check, and The Magical Unicorn Quilt pattern is still available from a variety of places.
I am sure that I had grand plans of making the quilt, but that has long ago gone by the wayside.
However, in looking over the pattern this week, I see it has at least 111 pieces to it!
Whoa!
I am not making pillows, unless I simplify and reduce the size of the pattern (actually doable but will require some effort).
It does contain five sizes, so I am still going to make this unicorn, but in the smallest wall hanging size.
I have begun tracing pieces onto a fusible web (Steam-A-Seam).
That may be as far as I get this month, but that is moving forward!
Who doesn’t need unicorns and rainbows in their life?
I am linking up with other challenge participants over at Dreamworthy Quilts.
Have fun and carry on!
