March 2024

Same list as last month. I get a little bit done each month and while it may not look like much it pleases me to do a little as I can.

#1 – Quilt something

Storm at Sea / Snail’s Trail Wendy Mathson December 2022

I plan to get the backs done for all my tops ready to be quilted.

#2. Alaska – I posted about this project here and here. Just a few more blocks and then it will be ready to put together.

#3 – Mountain Mist – continue working on this

Finished first block

Working on block 2

#4 – Ornaments – all of these have been blanket stitched and are ready for the next step…

The next step is to embroider decorative stitches around. I need to go through my book of stitches and pull out some fancy thread and play with the various ones. Then pick what I like. This takes thought and having all my options with me so it feels a bit more involved than what I’m able to do right now.

#5-Raining Cats and Dogs- this is an old hand quilting project that I set aside. I am adding this on this list to remember it and figure out how to get this done. Ideally It’s one of those projects I spend a little time on each day but I have a lot of those now and so need to think about my game plan.

#6- sashiko… I have all those sashiko things I bought last year and I want to play with these one day.

#7-Kimberbell – machine embroidery. I picked this up again as I was trying to make space to walk in my sewing room.

Happy quilting!
