Oh the Places You'll Go

It is a gorgeous, hot, summer day here!   Too nice to be inside!  (So, thanks to technology, I am outside while doing this.). Among other things, here is what I've been working on.  I didn't particularly like the pattern on Robert Kaufman's site, so I made some changes.  I will add a 2" finished white inner border with a larger outer border.  This will be twin size when finished and for my Grandson.

UFO's, FAL's and what I did instead...

Okay, my list of unfinished projects (UFO's) is getting longer.  Instead of working on them, I decided to make this instead.  It is a very cute kit from Sew Lux Fabric that I received with an order from them.  It went together very quickly!  I used their tutorial for the self-binding technique as I hadn't ever done binding that way before.

The kit did make two and I had both done in less than an hour.

My UFO's, FAL's are:

Swoon Quilt (make at least 3 blocks this quarter)
July Tula Pink Modern Blocks with Tula Pink Fabric
July Craftsy BOM
Glimma Quilt (Finish this quarter!!)
Dr. Suess Grandson Quilt
My Husband's Winter Solstice Quilt (yes, from 2012)
Tumbling Blocks Quilt
FMQ the Good Fortune Quilt
Stuffed Sea Horse for Charity

Not started but need to get them done:

Owlivia Quilt
Dr. Suess Granddaughter Quilt
Modern Bliss Quilt
Happy Go Lucky Hash Tag Quilt
Cuzco Quilt

I am aiming high!

Tula Pink Modern Blocks for June and July

Yesterday and today, I worked on my Architextures Tula Pink Modern Blocks.  I have 30 finished.  When I have 70 finished, I will make the quilt on pages 228-233 of Tula Pink's City Sampler 100 Modern Quilt Blocks.  I also want to FMQ the blocks as shown in the book.  I mean what goes together better than a City and Architextures?  Seriously.

Here are June's blocks - 2, 12, 22, 32, 42, 52, 62, 72, 82 & 92:

And July's blocks - 3, 13, 23, 33, 43, 53, 63, 73, 83 & 93:

 

 

Caught up now!  That is a good feeling.  Going to take the afternoon and go sit in the sun.
