Yesterday marked to official first day of summer. We have been out of school for almost a month. Summer vacation seems to go by really fast. Why is that? I don't feel like I have done a whole lot. Summer plans never seem to get accomplished. But, what plans did I have for this summer? Quilt as many quilts as I can. Prepare for the Moldova Mission trip. Go to summer PBiS training. Well, I guess I have done one and are still working on the other two.
I have been quilting a lot this last week. Monday I finished a quilt for Lori. I think I have quilted a total of 12 of her quilts over the past year. I still have 2 of hers to do and she is working on another one. After I finished Lori's quilt, I quilted a baby panel that is my next UFO on my small quilt list. I had 3 sets of flannels that I was going to quilt to make baby quilts. I bought one yard for the front of the quilt and about 1 1/2 yards for the back of the quilt and binding. I quilted all three of those. Then I quilted a Chevron quilt that I made to put on etsy to sell. I finished quilting it Friday. So, I got several of my quilts done last week. Now I have to bind them. Binding is sewn on 3 of them.
Next week I have to focus on other people's quilts. I have several small projects for Carolyn to finish for her. There are 2 wall-hangings, 2 table runners/toppers, a pillow case (finished last night), and a quilt. I have 2 quilts for Geriann to quilt. And, a lady brought in 2 quilts for me to do that she needs for Christmas. Plus the Lori's 2 quilts. That makes 11 quilts for others to do. I also have a Quilts of Valor quilt to do and a quilt for the ladies at church to quilt. Now I am up to 13. Wonder how many I can get done this next week. I guess I should set a goal, but I won't. It would be nice to get half of them done, even better to get them all done.
Well, it's almost time to go to church.
Happy Quilting!
Terrie
