First, so you have a tiny bit of eye-candy, here's my current point on my piecing and quilting priority quilts:
Listen With Your Eyes - So close to having the FIVE diamond/NYB star circles completed!!
Sterling's QOV - I've just finished the center work, and this afternoon will start figuring out the details of how I'm doing the borders.
And now, here's my Q1 LIST OF QUILTS for the complete finish by March 31st:(It's over-generous on purpose, I'd be flabbergasted if all of these were checked off. Also, except for 3, 7, and 9, all are simply waiting for their quilting.)
1. PJan 25 Sapphire Stars Mystery QOV for Sterling - my OMG for January
2. PJan 25 Bohemia - a top finished in Jan 2014, and this month's UFO challenge number
3. PFeb 2 Wildlife Trio kit - purchased last June, it will be a Valentine for Scott, who's been angling for more quilts in his offices
4. PFeb 9 Nicole's Mountains - a mini for my sister's birthday
5. Daisy Days - my own quilt that I want for my reading chair, pieced this month
6. Hearts or Modernology - the first top pieced in May 2010, the second from Dec 2013-August 2014
7. PMarch 28 The February UFO challenge, #1 - Fancy Forest - a large top pieced in the summer of 2016
8. PFeb 28 Night Watch - my February OMG, Row quilt 1 of 6, requested by Scott for his office
9. Quilted Valance - need something pretty to coordinate with Dancing Hearts Longarm Quilting
10. PMar 29 The March UFO challenge, #8 - Ocean Songs - a top I'd sewn in Dec 2008!
11. Baby quilt for Heather's preceptor - to use some of the hot air balloon fabric
12. PMar 16 March OMG - Elm Street Quilts Postcard Exchange - gotta do something social :)
13. Raven's Throne - Row quilt 2 of 6 requested by Scott for his office

I positively love the "Listen with your Eyes" circle quilt. I drool every time I scroll back to admire it.
ReplyDeleteOh my, that's a Beauty! I love everything in this block, the pattern, colors, everything is sooooooo eye catching! Love the quilting of the quilt too.
ReplyDeleteGreat job on the quilting! I might have to join in the Finish - a - long, too! :)
ReplyDeleteWell done on making so much progress Lynette. Both your projects are looking great!
ReplyDeleteIt is an energetic list, but setting high goals sometimes achieves more of them even if it's not all of them.
ReplyDeleteListen with your Eyes is definitely coming along BEAUTIFULLY!
Sterling's quilt is getting so close! Deciding what to quilt is something that really slows me down sometimes.
Good luck! I know you will get a ton done!
You have me totally listening with my eyes! Those stars are beautiful and I can't wait to see them all come together. I love the texture on the QOV quilt. I could look at quilting like that all day, so please share more. I am actually begging to see more quilting :)
ReplyDeleteThose NYB stars are spectacular, and I love how you're quilting that QOV. What kind of longarm machine do you have, and how long have you been quilting with it? I'm a longarm newbie with a couple practice quilts behind me and my first "real" quilt on the frame right now... Trying to get up the courage to start quilting it!
ReplyDeleteWell, as one who loves all things pointy when it comes to quilting, you know I'm listening with my eyes! That is one gorgeous quilt, and those points have me swooning. Can't wait to see the finish!
ReplyDelete"Listen With Your Eyes" is stunning. The quilting on the QOV is impressive as well. That is a very special quilt.
ReplyDeleteI love your eye candy, it would be great to see those projects finished! Thank you for joining us in the Finish-A-Long!
ReplyDeleteListen with your Eyes is gorgeous! Good luck with your list!
