FAL 3rd Quarter Goals

Am feeling quite satisfied with my 2nd Quarter goals, having achieved three out of six of them! I think a 50% success rate is pretty good considering how busy and manic Term Two was at school!

Joining up with the 3rd Quarter Finish Along, we'll see how successful I can be with this quarter:

This purple Kate Spain cot quilt needs finished:  15th July - all done!



And I am still aiming to get this Patchwork Blues finished before winter is over!

I have this Amy Schimler panel to make up:

I have a set of racing fabrics to work together:

I'd quite like to get this Christmas quilt done too...BEFORE Christmas!

I need to get this French General UFO quilted up before September:

I would like to turn these into a bag using this new pattern I downloaded from Coates: DONE! 30th July

And I have this set of squares (cut from leftover Merry Mermaids fabric) to use on a Jumping Jacks baby quilt too...14th July - all done (man, I love chill-out time during school holidays!)

I have a heap of children's fabrics that I want to turn into baby quilts for the Southland Neo-Natal unit or eye spy quilts (for whatever) but just cutting them will be a long-term project!

WIP Wednesday - Moda Designer Mystery quilt

I've excitedly got a finish to share in my next post (need to get the photos off my camera) but in the meantime I've moved onto my next Finish Along 1st quarter goal - completing my 2012-2013 Moda Designer Mystery BOM quilt...

I've had the blocks and the finishing kit sitting in my 'textile storage facility' (aka the spare room) since 2013 and have finally got around to putting it together! 

Here's progress so far - I had forgotten how much I adore these Bonnie and Camille 'Vintage Modern' fabrics...

The Moda kit/BOM packs all had ample fabric for the blocks, I've got a lot of leftovers that I will relish using in another project.

WIP Terrain Easy As 10

Having been away to Sydney for the Netball World Cup, where the Silver Ferns came second place :-( and then having spent the last four days at Southland Hospital with my son experiencing a kidney stone issue (ouch!), I am enjoying spending a quiet recuperation day at home with him as we monitor and manage his pain levels (which seem to be easing thankfully!) as the stone passes its way through (doesn't bear thinking about!)

Took a bit of time out from the housework catch-up to sew together the rows on this Me & My Sister design, Easy As 10, which is using charm squares and yardage of Kate Spain's Terrain range. 
This version is quite true to the original pattern, with a range of colours.

I also have a blue/purple toned version underway, just needing to work out what fabric to use for the in between rows...
