I'm Trying, I Really Am!

The Great Pumpkin BOM Quilt

I'm trying I really am!!  Trying to get some PHD"s or UFO"s, whatever you want to call them, FINISHED!! I am working on 3 right now and I hope to get the Great Pumpkin quilt sashed together within the week . I already have my name on a list for machine quilting and it should be coming up in October. I'm really looking forward to get it done for Fall.

Happy Hauntings

And then there is the Halloween quilt. I'm putting the last borders on it and I think I am going to tackle machine quilting it myself.(Wish me luck)  The other gals that made this quilt the same time as I did, had theirs hanging last year to enjoy it and they were so neat.  It was a fun quilt to make, lots of fun!!  I want to do alot of embellishing on it but that can always be done at a later date, if I don't get at it this year. It was so funny when we were making these quilts because none of us were professed Halloween lovers but every time we see a cute Halloween patterns, we just love it!!  I know now that we are in denial, big time!!

My Little Embroidered Baskets

And then here is the little embroidered basket quilt again . Just need to add another border and it will be ready to quilt. It was also on a list to be machine quilted until my Mini group had a hissy fit about that so...I guess it will be a hand quilting project after all.  It's not all that big but I'm still hand quilting on the little appliqued basket quilt so this one will have to wait in the corner.  And I don't want you to think for even a minute that these 3 are the only unfinished projects that I have lurking around my house. There's more, lot's more but I told myself I HAD to get these done because I already have another that I want to start. Isn't this just the norm for quilters?? That's about it for me and my projects for now.  Oh, I forgot I do have the Quilted Village ready to go to the machine quilter when my name comes up...Wow, that's 4 projects that I will have finished in a month or two or maybe a little more.   Sew until next time, have a Stitches kind of day..... I'm linked up today with Connie at Freemotion by the River, be sure and check it out, great blog and tutorials and lots of good links too!!!
