Fresh Sewing Day and Just Three...

September!!!!!!



Well!  Look at that.  Some finishes and some firsts.  The finishes were all baby quilts.  All 3!  The firsts were bunting, a needlebook and covered notebooks.  It is also the first time I made a sleeping bag for Waldo.  And that brought up something that I just did not know.  That Waldo was only Waldo in Canada and the States and Wally everywhere else.  Oh and another first.  I participated in a blog hop hosted by Plum and June.  That is why Waldo has a pillow and a sleeping bag.

As far as Just Three goes and my goals for the last month, I did well.


1)  Finish the Wonky Stars Sorbet baby quilt.  Since this is now on the floor, sandwiched and awaiting quilting, this will be an easy finish.  Done

2)  I want to get a start on the Proverbial quilt which is a quilt along with Krista from Poppyprint!  I have the pattern and have fabric pulled.  I have my quote and am ready to roll.  This is meant to be a slow-ish project so I plan on poking away at this one.  I am most excited about it!     Started and it is fun!


3)  I have to make a swap item for the Modern Scrappy Bits Swap.  Just a little something-something.  That will be fun!  Done.  See that little Mendocino needlebook in the collage?

So those are my Just Three goals.  Easy Peasy.  And they were.  For this month.

1.  Finish the "Feels Like Fall"  quilt.  Just needs binding so we should be good there.
2.  Make more progress on my Proverbial quilt.  So doable.
3.  Make more fabric covered journals.  At least 3 more.  Maybe some Jane Market bags too.

Linking up with Lynne at Lily's Quilts for Fresh Sewing Day and with Tracey for Just Three!
