Finishes first! This RSC2022 project got derailed by my accident & sat in a box until last year when I got it out to see what I had left to do. Turned out I only had 2 colors left, so I got those done during the appropriate months, got it quilted & sewed on the binding this month.
Another finish is this March small quilt for the stand. It slipped in for a photo shoot, but won’t make its appearance until 1 March. Sorry it’s so dark, but all the colors are Sparkler fabrics.
This is Scrappy Hearts by Quilty Love. I was making these for RSC2024 & when I went to put the flimsy together at the end of the year, I found that I was short 3 hearts. So I laid them out & determined I needed a navy, light green & dark green. So whenever green rolls around, I’ll make those & get busy putting it together.
Here are the blue Scrap Stash Plus blocks from a free pattern by Quilty Love. They are using up a background jelly roll from another project where I only used a couple strips, & a clearance curated jelly roll from a shop going out of business. Seemed like a perfect project to “roll” these fabrics out of my stash.
The last of the WholeHearted blocks got put together in this week’s FaceTime quilt group, so next week we begin the sashing. So far, this is the quickest we’ve ever worked a quilt & we are astonished. It means we finished up our meeting by discussing ideas for our next project.
One of my goals this year is to turn a WIP into a finished flimsy. Since this Rocky Road to Grayson has a blue background, I thought it would be a good project for this month. By assembling all the various pieces I had already made, I ended up with 10 blocks. I don’t see any notes in the box (eye roll), so don’t know what I planned originally, except I know I never planned to make the giant size of the pattern. So the next step is to sit down with the pattern & do some quilt math & see if I can really get it done this month.
You’ve done well with two finishes and lots of sewing on other blocks.
