June plans? I really don’t know life seems to be winning right now and my crafty goals have taken a back burner.

#1 – Quilt something

I would like to get all the batting prepped.

#2. Alaska – I posted about this project here and here and here and here and here and here. This month my plan is to start putting the top together and maybe even get the top done.

#3- Door banners – I have 2 banners done and I have 2 that I can do. I would like to do one this month.

—————- everything below this line has basically not been worked on for awhile and I keep this on the list so I don’t forget. I’ve not yet come up with a game plan for these so they just keep getting posted.

3 – Mountain Mist – continue working on this

Still 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!
