This is definitely going to be the year of the Growth Group Quilts. I've known the people in my growth group(s) at church for 3-4 years now (7-8 in my original group), and they should have quilts. I'm tempted to just make a bunch, bring a pile to a group gathering, and get to pick the one they like the most....
In the meantime...need moar backings! I'm going to start sewing together chunks of collections that I have which aren't really useful anymore. Also, cotton homespun interspersed with patterned stuff. It's not great, but it's solid.
I sent four quilts off to be longarmed with a local quilter, and will hopefully manage a couple more in the next weeks.
I'd like to make a stuffed pouffle - possibly for giving away? I have some denim, and I think I'm going to use that.
Need to make 'handles' for a laundry bag (or a better laundry bag); actually, we need several more 'bra bags' that we can toss in the wash.
have backings for four more quilts (green spares, two quilts for Lin nephlets, one quilt for Kinsley)
make 3 more old maid's puzzle quilt blocks to add to the 3x3 one - using 'older style' fabrics
Christmas party plans?
- 1 slip dress in a beige colour, suitable for going underneath overlay dresses?
- something for a "hoedown"
