After getting back from the honeymoon and unpacking some great wedding gifts, I took stock of all my unfinished projects. I promised myself I would get through them as quickly as possible. And, so, I hunkered down over the month of July to get them done!
Now, I was hoping I'd get them done during the summer, but August quickly crept up on me and I found myself consumed by a 19-day work week with 15-18 hour days. So, I got through some of the projects, but not all of them.
So, rather than abandon the project by saying, well the summer's over, I'm going to keep going.
This July I completed several items:
- Mom's Americana Quilt
- Batik Color Sample Quilt
- ABC Baby Quilt
I look forward to blogging about these finishes soon and posting some photos of my industriousness.
But, for the rest of 2010, I'm going to focus on the other UFOs/WIPs in my life, including:
- Flower Power Pillows
- Quilt Along Quilt
- Christmas Embroidery Quilt
- Wedding Autograph Quilt
- In-Laws Surprise Quilt
- Pizza Box Challenge Quilt
Now, I'm sure there are others, but those are the big ones. I've got to fit in completing some projects to sell at my Quilt Guild's quilt show, as well as some Christmas presents, but I'm not letting myself cut into the beautiful fabrics I've purchased over the past year until those are done! (And my, those are tempting - my birthday presents from my parents was a shopping trip to a local quilt shop, so I had to tuck all my purchases away in a drawer to keep from tempting myself!)
Wish me luck as I embark upon this adventure! Hope I can keep to my promise of not starting something new!
