Yesterday I went to church but came home and snuggled in for the rest of the day. First, I worked on cutting out Clue #2 for Celtic Solstice. It only take 488 of each piece, i.e. 488 yellows/golds, 488 greens, and 488 neutrals. I also worked on Clue #1 (its all cut out).
Then I realized that Tuesday night will be Garden Club at Quilter's Garden. I hadn't quite finished my BOM. The incentive to finish my block each month is a drawing for a $10 gift certificate if you finish you block. So stopped working on Celtic Solstice and finished the final block for this BOM. I have the finishing kit for this quilt but haven't gotten to it with all the cutting for Bonnie's quilt.
Next I moved on to the Country Threads BOM for 2013. I had printed off the directions on the first of the month, but they found a mistake and I was waiting for the correction. They gave the same cutting directions for both blocks. Below is the 6.5" block. I have really enjoyed this quilt because it is totally scrappy. I have used stuff out of my stash (which it has only taken 20 years to have that kind of stash). LOL
Today I have linked up with Patchwork Times and Quiltville's Snips and Quips.
Have a motivational Monday!
Yours in quilting,
Terry
Love the Garden Club Block, Terry. Might have to try that one. I know it sounds like a lot of cutting on Solstice, but it will be worth it!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Libby, you are such a great cheerleader. Yes, Celtic Solstice will be worth it. I have never been disappointed in Bonnie's quilts.
DeleteThanks for sharing your Country Threads sampler. I'll have to check that one out! Your Celtic Solstice is looking great. I'll be working on mine this week too.
ReplyDeleteIf you want the Country Threads Sampler go to their website www.Countrythreads.com and click on the tab on the upper right side for free quilt pattern. It will be gone by January. They are planning on starting another for 2014. Enjoy!
DeleteAlways multitasking, like me, lol! Your clue is coming along!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Andee. Is there any other way than multitasking? Hope to get more done on clues tonight.
