I didn't think I'd done that much until I started backtracking my blog post but most definitely want to do more quilting wise in 24!
JANUARY
I got got out some scraps & tried my hand at potholders ,with the insulbrite in-between guess they're hot pads lol
FEBRUARY
I made a small ironing pad to keep beside my machine for pressing those quilt blocks,sure saves time jumping up & down to the ironing board
MARCH
I wanted a spring cottage like quilt,I totally luv it all made with scraps & a heavy robe for those cold mornings
I made a set of paisley print pillowcases to coordinated with my grey sheets,pulled out some scraps from my jar quilt I'm working on & made up some pot holder/hot pads for my niece
JUNE
I made a few aprons for the kitchen,I'm torn between the farmhouse look & the cottagee look ,I luv them both! also pillows from scraps fabrics for the layneigh
JULY
I needed & wanted a robe & there was this top sheet that the bottom sheet has been missing for years "I think one of the kids took it by mistake one Christmas while spending the night but no one will confess"😄so I just made a robe out of it lol
more tweaking in the kitchen with pillows matching the apron theme,sweeked out just enough fabric for a table runner& what I think is my favorite for the year,a heavy flannel tie quilt
SEPTEMBER
I was happy that I could participate in Ryan's Case For Smiles again this year,pillowcases are collected for Childrens Cancer Hospitals
OCTOBER
I joined a quilt block drive for children's quilts ,I was honored to be able to because part of this drive ,I made 46 blocks in various animal prints that will go towards being turned into quilts for a children's cancer hospital
NOVEMBER
