September goals

Holiday time is nearly over and it is time to get back into some routine now. The kids will start back at school next week already, summer break seems to have flown by. Maybe the start of the new year will be an opportunity to pick up again some abandoned projects and to catch up with some overdue bee blocks?

Hoping for finish
1. Scrappy X block quilt - only need quilting -  this will be my choice (again) in September for the One Monthly Goal with Heidi - quilted, needs binding now
2. Book bee blocks to make into a wall-hanging


Bee Blocks 
1. Flower hexies for the Inchy Hexie Swap (August, September) 
2. Bee Hive (September) 
3. Bubble Bee (August, September) 
4. I love Lucy International (August, September) 
5. Scandi Bee (July, August, September) 
6. Fat Stash Bee (July) 
7. Block lotto

    Get that binding done! You can doo-it!

    Your Wanta Fanta blocks look great. I tried one and it became a pillow!

    Celine, I see you are doing the 365 too. That is one of the reasons my Lazy Bum goals has fallen behind. Working on 365 and Patch Work of the Crosses or as our LQS calls it "Lucy Boston". Some behind on 365, but trying to catch up.

September in the Hexagon!

Welcome to my stop on the Hexie Blog Hop Be a Hexie Queen ! I am a hexie lover and always have an emergency supply of hexies in my bag for when I am on-the-go (which is actually very often) and when I first signed up for the blog hop, I thought I would show you a EPP (English Paper Piecing) hexie project. That was until I remembered a long forgotten UFO that was laying in a plastic bag in my cupboard. I thought it would be the perfect occasion to get the dist and cobwebs out (no it wasn't that bad really) and give it a new lease of life! It all started with a few scrap strips and ended with a few more strips! I ordered and received a scrap bag of Moda fabric a few years back and I received a pack of off-cuts of Migration by Holly Taylor. I wasn't sure what to do with it until I saw this Hexagon quilt-along on Julie of Jaybird Quilts ' blog that I know I wanted to join in, it was all about hexagons! And although there were machine-pieced, there was no horrible Y

Blog hop and a giveaway

Welcome to my blog if you are new here and found me from the Quilting Gallery website and welcome back if you are a regular reader. I have written a blog for over 2 years now but started quilting about 10 years ago, mainly self-taught. I love fabric and my stash is probably too big for my needs, but can a girl really have TOO MUCH fabric? I don't think so! Michele at the Quilting Gallery is organising a blog hop for the 4th anniversary of her site . If you don't know the quilting gallery yet, you need to hop over there and have a look around, there is plenty to browse at. Every week, there is a themed-contest. Everyone can enter their quilts and everyone can vote on the entries. Well worth having a look at, you can even enter your quilts if they fit the theme. I have entered a few times in the past, but never won! From September until December, 36 designers shared a Christmas block for free in the " Celebrate Christmas Quilt-along ", you can still collect the pat

Ravenbrook Scrap Quilt Along

Image
  Yes I know, another new project... but (!) this one is all about using my scraps, what's not to love. And the instructions come in German for the  Ravenbrook Scrap Quilt Along .  The first 3 blocks are made of rectangles and I used only scraps to make those (I can't really say I have made a dent in my scrap basket either actually...) I picked green as the focus colour for the blocks since this is the January colour for the Rainbow Scraps Challenge organised by Angela I joined the challenge years ago but hadn't participated in recent times. Of course it would be tempting to start yet another project but I think using my scraps for this quilt along in the set colour of the month is a safer plan.
