I was feeling overwhelmed this week at the amount of quilts I have on the go in reality and in my mind. So I took 20 minutes and made this. It's kind of hard to see in the picture but I took an old shadow box frame and replaced the picture with a piece of fabric. Then I used a dry erase marker to list out the quilts I currently have in some form of progress, including a quilt along that I have committed to but not started. For the month of June, these are the only quilts I will work on. Hopefully, this will result in a handful of completely finished quilt by the months end.
This week I got all of my pieces (except the outside border) cut for the Impromptu Along. I'm not sure what it is about this quilt in particular but I am very eager to get going. Instead of diving into the blocks (I'm trying to wait until the QAL actually starts on Saturday LOL) I made my binding last night.
I love a scrappy binding. And a scrappy navy binding? {swoon} The other project that has been taking up the majority of my sewing time is Sunny Days. But now that it is finished, I should make good progress on a few other things. Here's a sneak peek to hold you over until Friday when I post fully about it.
