Chookshed Stitchers 2024 Challenge – July

This year seems to be flying by so fast! We are already into July!

My Chookshed Stitchers challenge for July is Number 1 on the list. You can see my project list in this post.

Chookshed Stitchers 2024 Challenge

Number 1 for me is my Checkerboard Rails project.

This project was begun in September, 2023, and I wrote about this project here and here.

I left off needing more blocks (because naturally, I miscounted), and setting the blocks together.

Hopefully, this can come together as a flimsy and get a backing for it this month!

Bowl Cozies, a Potato Bag, and a Rail Fence

I have made bowl cozies before, but they were all given away as gifts.

It is nearly chili and soup weather!

When the Hubster figured out that I was making bowl cozies, he got excited.

We are going to be using these!

I have also made potato bags and given them away.

I needed another for a quick gift and it sure doesn’t take long to make these!

Potato Bag

One of the things that I wanted to do this year was use up some of my hand dyes.

I have chosen Bonnie Hunter’s Checkerboard Rails pattern to help me out.

Rail Fence

This is very easy sewing and I think I have enough rail fence blocks made for a good-sized quilt.

I do need to make more four patches and then I will lay this out and see if I have enough.

Have fun and carry on!
