FAL 2013 :: Q1

I'm surfacing from the depths of our germ-stricken home to write up a quick post for the Finish Along. Looking back on my list I was pleasantly surprised to see that I really did finish a few things. I have been very bad about starting new projects lately and shoving old ones to the back when they become a bore.

The successes:

1. October dGS quilt,  now known as "Gathered Geese"

Gathered Geese 


Baby Trip 

Hourglass Baby 


Love mini 

Patchwork Baby

I had two other projects on my list that did not get finished. I got the top for Max's quilt all sewn together and even got the backing cut but haven't gotten around to basting yet. It is a little more of a challenge now that Jill is crawling everywhere and I have no desire to stay up late basting a quilt. The other project still hasn't seen the light of day and likely won't for a while. 

Still, I like to think that 5 out of 7 isn't too shabby. Now to figure out what to put on next quarter's list...

  15. Excellent productivity Toni! I love the flying geese quilt. I understand the house of germs. We rarely get sick but this week Amelia and I have had throat infections and double ear infections at the same time, and I think the boys are coming down with it coz they are grumpy!

  18. Chica, where in the hell DO YOU FIND THE TIME!!! Amazing!!! Can you send me some of whatever you are taking to be that motivated over here? I love it... Everytime I stop over here it makes me want to drink some coffee and put my (sewing machine) pedal to the metal!
