Fourth quarter FAL 2014

Which should probably be titled 'third quarter repeat'.

As usual I didn't link up with my solitary finish; my scrappy cushion...

 

 

I was really pleased with how this turned out and was even more delighted that when I posted it on IG it won a Cotton and Steel bundle from the generous Amanda of Westwood acres.

 

On to my 'to do' list...

 

1) Rachel's scrappy stars - again !

 

 

 

2) Applique orange peel - destined to be a cushion.

 

 

3) IG miniswap- teamroseanne.

This has to be finished to make the postal deadline in early December. Paper piecing is not my forte but the whole purpose of joining the swap was to push myself to try new techniques, so it's working!

 

 

4) large star

 

 

I hit the buffers with this one when it came to joining the corner sections - I just can't get it to lie flat. I was hoping to get some uninterrupted time to play with it but that hasn't happened yet.

 

 

5) Plus Quilt. The fabric for this is cut, but I'm having second thoughts about colour/layout. I'm thinking this might be my Christmas holiday project. I like to have something 'easy' to work on over the holiday period as the house is usually quite full of people in pajamas/Xmas stuff. Which makes it almost impossible to work in my usual chaotic manner.

 

I know I'll finish at least the IG pineapple block mini. I usually finish another project that I haven't even thought of yet, too.

 

Good luck everyone :0)
