To-Do #1

This quilt is made completely from a jelly roll.  Our second quilt using the pattern called 16-Patch Framed 4-Patch quilt, we are thinking of adding borders.  Without borders, it finishes at 40″ by 57″.  I would like to make it larger and more of an adult-size throw.  We have two yards of coordinating fabric that was going to be used as a backing.  Now we’ll use that as two borders, with a scrappy border made from the leftover jellyroll strips.  A generous finished size, the added borders will make it approximately 58″ x 75″.

To-Do #2

The Jigsaw quilt pieces are all appliquéd.  With those all complete, the quilt rows can be sewn together.  Here are two blocks from the eighth row:

To-Do #3

Yes, indeed the last GK table runner is completely quilted and bound.  This also completes another UFO item for our PHD from Quilting Gail.  Chhh-check! √√  I’ll share all the details later this week, on Friday.  There may have been some stippling involved. GK Stippling

    Congratulations-you met your weekly goals. I really must be more organized. It seems the key to setting goals is making them manageable. I love your quilts.

    Great goals – best of luck making each one of them. The puzzle quilt will be great – I keep being drawn to it, but telling myself no, I have too many other things to do!

    What a cute top! I love your color sense on that jelly roll quilt.

  5. Kathryn says:

    I love the 16 patch framed 4 patch, such a great scrappy and looks so good. I remember the jigsaw top being on the go for awhile – a lot of appliqué work there. Looking forward to seeing the GK table runner in its completness!

  6. Vicki in MN says:

    You will sail right along with the puzzle quilt now that the applique is all done! I made lots of progress on more runner flimsy’s the past 4 days.

  7. I’d say you’ve been moving along pretty well. I think need to add a few more things to your to do list. Haha!
