Linking Up with Quilt Schmilt
Well haven’t posted for a couple of weeks, kept sewing but feeling a little blah so haven’t been doing heaps.
Last time I posted I want to
A few Weeks Ago
Work on my March UFO number – which was number 1 on my list. This turned out to be a sew along that I did with Pat Sloan – Sweet Dreams. So the goal is to further it along. As the top was made, I used a few bits of the same fabric and made a backing and am in the process of quilting it.
Work on Sewcialites blocks. I am up to date with these. I only do the three inch blocks when they are really simple patterns. I do all the six inch ones!
Work on BOM from FQS. I have done the number nine block and sewed two log cabin blocks so that I could put together row 2. I have row 1 done. I have changed the finishing a little because I don’t want a big quilt, it will be big enough as it is! Always thinking ahead to having to quilt it!!
Plans for the Coming Week
- Sort out a pattern for a baby quilt and then start to think about fabric. This is for one of my sisters to give as a gift to someone special to her. It is going to be a girl. So far she has given me the size she wants, now I am messaging her about colour and pattern. Baby arrives in June.
- Continue to quilt Pat Sloan quilt.
- Some piecing – Sewcialites blocks for coming week and some work on FQS Mystery BOM.
Your Sweet Dreams looks pretty and cozy. I like those log cabins! Hope your week is going well.

Thanks Judy, the baby quilt should be fun but I hate trying to make something when someone asks ( I don’t mind the asking) but its the worry over whether they will like it or not!

I love both color schemes for the Sewcialite blocks!! I may have to do some fabric pulls to see what I can come up with. Good luck with the quilting!

Hi Kathryn! Another friend mentioned they had the blahs, too. I must be going around and is catching! I would join you in skipping the 3-inch blocks unless they were easy. Good luck with this week’s list. {{Hugs}} ~smile~ Roseanne

Kathryn your Sweet Dreams quilt is so pretty and I love the fabrics in your Socialites and your log cabin blocks. They are all going to be pretty quilts when you get them done. Good to hear the blahs are starting to disperse. Looks like a great list for this week. Hope you are making progress. Thank you for linking with To Do Tuesday. I’m looking forward to seeing your progress.

Nice job on the Sweet Dreams. Looks like you are making good progress on it. Yikes, 3″ blocks? I used to make 4″ but not any more. Kudos for getting any 3″ blocks done!
