Since finishing my “Insanity” Dear Jane quilt I have not been very busy. No photos to share either! I have quilted just a little on the Christmas Baltimore Album quilt. I have mainly been working on the 6th Baltimore Bliss block. About halfway through the block I decided I did not like some of it and changed the design a little — nothing major just little changes. I might be done with this block tomorrow. If I do I will show it and how the six blocks look together.
When I get done with these Baltimore Bliss blocks I will sew them together in some kind of design to be a child’s size quilt. I’m really not sure if it will be put with sashing and set on point or just sashing and not on point. I also need to put my Dutch Treat blocks together in some way. I haven’t decided for sure on that one what style I want. I have 38 blocks finished I believe — I had enough fabric for the whole quilt, so I have a lot of yardage left over that could be used in other quilts so I want to do something with that quilt soon. I guess for this upcoming year I need to get done with these quilt tops and then get busy quilting!!
I notice a lot of quilters that keep blogs put a list on their side bar of what quilts they are working on and what the status of those quilts are through out the year. I’m starting to wonder if that would motivate me some what. That will be something to think of in these last weeks of the year 2009. Does keeping track of your projects help you get them done?
We have had a cold front come through our state this week. The weekend was nice as could be and Monday morning brought a chill in the air – I think today we had a high of 43 and yesterday the high was first thing in the morning and kept dropping throughout the day. I actually don’t mind the weather getting a little cooler at this time of the year – we have a short winter. It is kind of nice to get the sweaters out and the heavier sweatshirts. I just might be able to use that scarf I knitted soon!!
