To-Do Tuesday October 26, 2021

This past week I did make progress on my simple goals for October 19th To-Do list.

1. Some hand stitching. ✔️

2. Prep wool appliqué. ✔️

3. Begin piecing a top for charity. ✔️

1. Ripping out stitching on I Picked a Posey embroidery happened.

Next I added fabric and blanket stitched around it.

I have a few more stitches to add to the top of the vase. The lighting in my sewing room sure changes day to day!

2. The wool appliqué – Sweet As Honey – I am slow going on this!

Pieces are prepped, and embroidery stitches in progress.

All those little pieces, leaves, flowers, bee, might take a while. And then the words. I hope I’ve not taken on too much with this kit!

3. Charity quilts -

Those piles are 88 flying geese. There are 68 more in progress. This is what I’m currently working on at my once a month quilting group. Next time I work on this quilt will be November 4th.

Other happenings in the sewing room -

Playing with quilting rulers! I purchased two of Amanda Murphy’s panels to use for practice quilting with her rulers.

Here is one of the panels sandwiched and ready to quilt.

Instruction book and Lollipop quilt rulers.

Panel quilted, front.

Quilting shows up well on the back.

This has been fun! I’m thinking of adding to the panel to make a lap size (wheel chair size) charity quilt.

A friend asked if I would make her some pumpkin hot pot pads. So that looks like what I’ll be doing this week.

To-Do List for October 26 – November 2

1. Pumpkin hot pot pads/mug rugs

2. Quilt block mug rug – birthday gift

    I like the fabric you added to your embroidery! That panel is gorgeous, and the quilting is beautiful! It does look fun to play with. Looking forward to seeing your pumpkin hot pads.
    Thanks for linking with To Do Tuesday!

    Your Posey block looks great with the new vase! I love the wool project, too. Have fun with this week’s projects!

    All your projects are great, but I particularly love your wool applique project. It definitely caught my eye in the thumbnail pics in the To Do Tuesday linky party.

    Hi Sharon! Gosh, I just love how the wool embroidery is coming along. Oh yeah, those leaves will be a challenge but so worth it in the end. And the fabric you chose for your vase is so cute!! It matches the embroidery thread just perfectly – like you planned it out or something. HAHA! Ooh, those lollipop rulers look nifty. You did a great job quilting the panel using those rulers. I need to do something like that – make myself try out some of the rulers I have that I haven’t use at all. Great job! Good luck with your list for this week. ~smile~ Roseanne
