2019 Finish Along: First Quarter

A couple of Easy Wins, I think. I have three months in which to get this done, and at least some of it needs to involve a quilt show quilt

complete at least 2 UFO Challenges out of the 3 for this quarter
For the APQ UFO Challenge, there'll be three challenge months. I have to finish at least two. (Ideally, all three would get done, but I'm not particularly hopeful.)


Mum's laptop sleeve
I made her a laptop sleeve for Christmas.


It turned out to be too small...

This actually needs to be done for Friday. So CHOPCHOP!


100 Kona-Tula Blocks
This is the January UFO Challenge, so the goal is to finish the top - sash the blocks together. It doesn't take long, it's just fiddly and the weather is hot.


flower shirt
Needs completing before the end of summer.


halterneck dress
Wants completing before the end of summer.

DECIDE ON SYDNEY QUILT SHOW ENTRY
I have no idea what to do for this this year! I mean, our guild hasn't even worked something out yet...

2019 Finish-Along!

Overall, there are scads of things I want to get done this year. But there are scads of things I want to get done every year. This last year has been quiet on the quilting front, because I've been focused on getting a garden system working, and I think it's pretty much worked out now with some refining possibly necessary.

Am I going to find the time to do all this? While doing up my garden, writing a couple of novels, keeping house, and working?

Probably not. That's okay. I tried.

I'm also going to majorly destash this year - I have too much fabric that I'm not going to use. Also, I'm kind of broke right now on account of not having a job, but the bills still need paying. So quite a bit of it will go, I think.
