I am so happy to say that the quilting is done, but so is the binding.  This quilt is finished and out of the sewing studio!!!

I am linking this finish up with One Monthly Goal at Elm Street Quilts and Patchwork Times.

My scrap bags are all full.  Each and every one of them.

I have decided to use Bonnie Hunter’s Scrap User’s System.

It is quite surprising to me how many strips, strings and crumbs I have managed to cram into one bag.

This is going to take a while.

Slow Sunday Stitching

Posted on January 15, 2017 | 7 comments

Today is Slow Stitching Sunday.

Before I sit in my easy chair, I am planning to try a new-to-me recipe.  I am making a No-Knead Crusty White Bread recipe (King Arthur Flour website)  that I pinned to My Pinterest Bread Board.  The dough is in the refrigerator, ready for baking later.

I will also spend some time free motion quilting on Aunt Sukey Spins Off , my January 2017 UFO Goal.

After these activities, I’ll be ready for my easy chair.

I’m still embroidering Aunt Bea’s Parlor, block 4.

Happy Sunday!

January 2017 UFO Goal

Posted on January 1, 2017 | 25 comments

I have chosen to work on Aunt Sukey Spins Off for my January UFO Goal.

This quilt is already under the needle, and most of the top is quilted.  I need to get the borders quilted, and that will be my focus.

The bonus will be to get the binding on, too, and be finished, but I’ll be pleased to get the quilting accomplished.

Linking up will keep me accountable, focused, and motivated, so I am linking up with Elm Street Quilts – One Monthly Goal.

Another goal this year, is to embroider the blocks for Aunt Bea’s Parlor.

I have two blocks done.  I will be working on this project on Sundays.

Kathy’s Quilts will keep me company.  I am linking up with her Slow Sunday Stitching.

May your New Year be filled with blessings and the achievements of your goals!
