I'm feeling such a sense of accomplishment today. I've managed to finish a number of things on my todo list. First I have completely finished the 2 Quilts for Kids quilts. We're planning to mail them back around the end of the month, so I'm pleasantly surprised I've finished early! I usually feel like I'm always working on things at the last minute. They've even been washed and dried and I hope they cheer up the children that get them.
I'm going on my first ever quilting retreat next week. Those who are veterans at these things suggested that I try to do most of my cutting at home so I can really get to the sewing. I managed to get the fabric for 2 quilts completely cut up (including the backing and binding) and ready to go. I have a 3rd quilt all in rows - they just need to be sewn together. And I also finished the cutting for step 2 of Jan's mystery quilt. Whoohoo!!!
And if that wasn't enough, I finally got around to dyeing some of my own fabric. And I LOVED it! I will definitely continue to do it. Next up is the Wild Strawberry gradation for my Crayon Challenge quilt. (Was that a confusing sentence for anyone out there?) I'm going to save the pictures until my next post.
We have a freeze warning here tonight, so make sure you stay bundled up. Until next time, take care...
