Design Wall Monday July 25, 2011

This week along with trying to find time to work on my July UFO, I have the quilt below on my wall. It is called What goes Around and was started in the class taken at Quilt in a Day.  I have a few more blocks to put together and then will sew all the rows together. I have a couple of different borders in mind and will make a choice once the top is together.

This was a fun project and did go together very fast. Looking forward to finishing this up by the end of the month.

The second project that I am working on are the blocks for the Medallion Block of the Month. Below are the first two blocks, and hope to complete the second two this week.

This week I only have a couple of purchases to report. I picked up block 7  for the Building Blocks with Sharon Craig quilt that I am working on- or was working on. I only have 3 blocks complete, so already behind on this one.

I also found myself at Memory Lane this week, to pick up binding for one of my clients. Found what I needed, but also signed up for another block of the Month This one is all hand dyed fabrics and the colors were beautiful.  I picked up the first two blocks and did get both of those complete. Will pick up the next two on Monday. Below is a picture of the finished quilt- it is called Medallion Block of the month. All in all, I only purchased 1 yard of fabric.



So here are the numbers:

Used this week: 0 yards
Used YTD: 166.5 yards.

Purchased this week: 1 yards.

Purchased YTD: 45 yards.

Net Fabric Used in 2011: 121.5yards

Happy Fourth of July to all!!

Today we are off to Coronado Island to watch the annual Fourth of July Parade. We will go over early and have breakfast while we wait for the parade starts to start at 10am. Then back home to barbecue in the afternoon and fireworks at the local lake. Here is a small Eagle Quilt in honor of the Fourth.


This week I will be working on my next UFO-Feathered Star by Jodi Barrows. It is supposed to be 12 blocks, each are 24". I am thinking I will only do 6.  We will see how the month goes!

So here are the numbers:

Used this week: 25.5 yards
Used YTD: 166.5 yards.

Purchased this week: 0 yards.

Purchased YTD: 44 yards.
