I'm Doing The HUSTLE...R U? UPDATED!!


I'm heading back to the 70's/80's to do the hustle!
She's going to be our fearless leader in this 100 day sewing
*EXTRAVAGANZA*
Why not join our batch of unfinished quilters and crafters, with their wips and pigs in hand,
and make a pledge that you will make as much of a dent in your bundles as humanly possible
by DECEMBER 31, 2012?
All you need to do is make a list,
check it twice,
link to Kelsey's post tomorrow
and you're in!
Midway through we'll post our progress ( or lack thereof )
and then on December 31 another post of what we've accomplished.
Easy Peasy, right? Right!
Oh, by the way...
I heard on the QT (not really, Kelsey told us)
she's going to have
PRIZES!!!
How's that for a little extra motivation?
Prizes and completed projects, a cleared sewing table ready for the New Year, Hmmmm?
Here's my list of P.I.G.'s (projects in grocerybags)
*
First up,
I've had this on the go for at least 4 years now.
Next,
the binding and label.
Not sure what's been taking so long with this.

Archiekins!
My little guy needs a hand getting this quilt sewn up for Dad's birthday, Dec. 1.
CJ has picked all the fabrics and started sewing it together but got a little bogged down when he went back to school.

Now these have been in this state for the past 3 (or 4) Christmases.
They need to be finished!


I made such a great start and actually had the top finished in a short time but then I stalled out.
I need to get er done, winter's a comin'!

WHEW!!
Keep going!

This is another P.I.G. that's been in the bag waaay too long.
I can't even remember when I started this Whirlygiggle.

This 9 Patch is even older than the Whirlygiggle,
I'm sew embarrassed.

Last but not least, I'm sure, (ya right!!) 
is this bag.
I've had the pattern for more than a year
and the bag I am using is pathetic.

Just to make things a little more interesting I'll add a few gifties for the Holidays,
let's see there's the teachers for all 4 of my kiddos,
one or two are expecting from what I'm told,
a couple of friends that go above and beyond...

UPDATE SEPTEMBER 22nd
I WON!!!
Yep, I won Cindy's Dots On Dots Giveaway!
I'm now the proud owner of this pattern
"LAUNDRY DAY"
I'm going to add it to my list because it's sew darn cute,
I can't resist!
Thank you Cindy & Wilson!

So that's my line up for the
100 DAY HUSTLE!
How's your list looking?

  4. I am definitely doing the hustle and I say better late than never on some of your quilts. What's 4 years? One time it took me just shy of 10 years to finish a cross stitch project, so you can do it. Plus I like the pics of your progress. Excellent idea!

  6. You have a great list! Love your PIGs! Not too bad with the 4 year quilt. I finished up one last year that I started about 8 years or so before, haha. I am so glad I'm not the only one that takes years sometimes.
