100 Day Hustle Results

*

Wow!! It's hard to believe that 100 days are soon to have passed since I signed up to join

the other Hustlers in getting their UFOs completed in 2012!

Time flies for some and stands still for others. 

There's been so much happen in those 100 days, at times, it's been 

incomprehensible.

I found my list changing constantly over the allotted time given but I still did accomplish some of my list, all be it very little.

*

"Laundry Day" is finished and on our bed, 

*

*

This Blanket Of Love is finished and awaits delivery to the hospital.

Pillowcases for us (got on a bit of a roll here)

have you sewn up pcs? Try the tube method by 

Missouri Quilt Co. pillowcase tutorial...this is sew easy!!!

*

As you can see, my dent in my list was minimal but I was keeping busy.

I've decided to put my whirlygiggle back in the cupboard, it's one of those quilts that I'm just not feeling "it" !

I tried getting a new bag made but I can't decide on fabrics, sew I'll just bide my time.

I do have another quilt made of Mill House Inn pinned and ready to go under the needle.

Maybe today but we'll see, I've been bitten by a cold bug or something :(

As for Great Granny, she's slated for completion by Valentine's Day!

*

We're going when?

*

My hubster threw me for a loop on Saturday,

he asked if I wanted to drive out to see my Dad next week?

Seeing my Dad also means we will be visiting our grandkids!

We will be seeing our granddaughter, Payton, for the very first time no less!

Well we certainly can't go empty handed so Grans starts hunting through her

stash and found these flannels that needed to go on a trip! So, I got to it!

Cutting, sewing, cutting, sewing...all this in less than 2 1/2 hours!

(CHECK OUT MY FIRST TUTORIAL HERE)

for this technique that I learned from Cindy  :O)

HAPPY STITCHING!!!

They gather nuts, we gather free patterns!

Did you know that you can download all kinds of

FREE QUILT PATTERNS ?

I DID NOT KNOW THIS!!!

No, I don't live under a rock ,all the time, but when I read this from

fellow Canuck, Paulette  I was floored! Flabbergasted?!

I chose this beauty for my Hubby

It's from Mr. Henry Glass and I love it. I can't wait to start gathering the flannels

for this quilt, all in harvest like colours, like wearing a pumpkin pie  =D

I also picked this for myself

Garden Grove by Kim Diehl @ Henry Glass's House.

It's very pretty and has some elements I haven't tried yet.
