As 2013 begins, I'm going to try and stay organized and on top of my projects.... And I will be joining many other bloggers out there both completing projects and starting new ones up! Lynne at Never too Hot to Stitch has a great challenge going, encouraging finishing one project before starting new ones... This sounds like a great idea!
Shanna of Fiber of All Sorts and Melissa of Sew BitterSweet Designs are hosting 2013 ~ A lovely year of finishes. For this challenge, my January challenge is to finish my daughter's skirt. Sorry its currently lost in the sewing room... Here is a photo of the fabrics - it the blue plaid, and the blue woven solid underneath.... |
| Fabric from Our Social Fabric Sale |
Judy over at Patchwork Times is hosting a Getting it Done Challenge in 2013...
As well as joining Leanne at She Can Quilt! for the 2013 Finish A Long
So what is on my list? Its going to be a simple list, sewing items anyways, as my main goal is home renovations and moving my longarm machine to my new studio.
- Start the Starburst Quilt A Long by choosing fabrics.
- Load the Quilt from Sew Happy Quilt's Quilt A Long onto the lonagrm. (UFO)
- Finish a skirt for my older daughter. (UFO)
- Embroider a blanket for my son's band fundraiser. (DUE Jan 15)
- Block for Quilt Guild BOM (January 11)
- Jelly Roll Race Quilt at Guild Meeting (January 11)
- Rennovations
- Empty both Rooms
- Remove carpets, wall, one door
- Rewire, possibly adding a sub-panel for the room and better lighting.
- Frame in closet, buy a closet door.
- (I think there is some discussion about insulation and the ceiling.... but.... that takes time....)
- Patch Drywall, Repaint
- Re-floor (maybe some in-floor heating?)
- Move Stuff!
I am also considering Quilt Sampler QAL to practice my free motion quilting.... but really don't need another project right now.... so I really think I'll skip this unless it has a longer time schedule... I also was thinking of doing the Dare to Dresden Blog Hop over at Sew We Quilt!
