To-Do Tuesday, August 30, 2022
While stitching the binding on the last of four baby quilts last night, a strong wind storm passed through causing our electricity to flash off and on several times. We have a few small branches down, but didn’t lose our electricity! I’m so thankful!
Here’s how my sewing went this past week -
To-Do Tuesday, August 23, 2022
- EPP Homage to Grandmother’s Flower Garden, Week 23 ✔️
- More PUP charity quilts. I think I offered to quilt and bind 6 total this Summer. ✔️
- Select a PUP from my own on going projects. ✔️
This week I concentrated on just two tasks.
1.Homage to Grandmother’s Flower Garden
Week 23 all stitched together.
The EPP quilt so far, weeks 1 – 23.
Week 24 progress.
2. Charity quilts
These four baby quilts are made from a gal in our group who is working through using up her stash! They are measuring 28 x 34 inches. I do like her lovely color ways! I’m doing a simple diagonal stitch and then binding the quilts.
Back side of quilts. She cut her fabrics into 6 inches squares. What a simple design to use up fabrics!
3. Pull out a PUP – Previously Unfinished Project,
I pulled out this whole cloth table runner to finish up the grid background design. My squares are turning into diamonds. Grrr. Erasing and redrawing the grid. Hmm, I might just do a different design, maybe straight lines, then go back to the grid at the opposite end.
That’s all for this week, as I was mainly focused on finishing the baby quilts and moving ahead on the EPP. This coming week will be more EPP and back to the t-shirt quilt.

I love your PUPs, and Grandmother’s garden is always such a pleasure to gaze upon. I think your whole cloth runner is gorgeous!
Thank you for sharing with us at To Do Tuesday!

Ooh the hexies are really growing and so pretty! Your quilting looks great to me. I had to study it to figure out what you’re talking about with the squares v diamonds but I am not a hand-quilter (though I enjoy it!). I do now understand the struggle there but it sure isn’t noticeable! Looks lovely!
