It is time to set goals for the third quarter finish-a-long. The first project I want to finish is one I had on my second quarter post that I failed to complete. This is my spider web quilt. I'd like to get four more of the big blocks done. Then I'll have a decent sized quilt top.
Next on my list is this scrappy batik quilt. This was a QAL I found on http://piecemealquilts.wordpress.com/skill-builder-series/test-your-skills-sampler/ I am not sure that all the blocks have been posted yet. I need to do some research and see if I need to come up with some blocks on my own to finish this quilt.
Here is a selvage quilt experiment that I started a couple of years ago. I don't know why I didn't complete this one. Maybe I ran out of selvages? I do like this one and look forward to getting it finished.
Last December, my needlework guild (Virginia Guild of Needlewomen) had a pinkeep project that I also failed to complete. Most of the stitching is done, but they didn't give step by step instructions on how to finish it. I'm going to have to think a little and decide how I want to do it. I also have some holly leaves that need to go on part of it. The stitching on this is over one thread, and my eyes don't like over one anymore. Maybe that's why it didn't get done.
This UFO is a Drawn Thread pattern. My friend Jodi stitched over half of it in 2005, according to the date on the piece. It is over half done and shouldn't take more than 10 hours to complete, probably much less.
