Each month at the beginning of the month I take stock and make a list of the quilts I have in progress and what my plans are.
Quilt Tops to Quilt
- Christmas Kit - machine quilt eventually
- Black and White Cats - machine quilt next
- 3-D - machine quilt eventually
- Seaswept- hand quilt next
Projects Being Pieced
- Blue Strings - blocks completed; will lay out and piece top
- August Stars - still piecing blocks. Pattern by Jaybird Quilts.
- Pink Strings - just started on blocks, will continue
- French General Kit - will piece 1 block this month
- 12 Days of Christmas Redwork - I'm on block #7 of 12
My one goal is to piece the Blue Strings quilt top. After that, continue on August Stars.
In July I quilted and finished four quilts- a charity quilt for my guild, two star quilts and a jelly roll bar quilt. Of those, only one is going to stay with me. They were all quick to piece so it felt great to get them finished quickly too.
This month I would most like to finish piecing August Stars. I'm making it with a navy background and a stash of bright batiks. I think it's going to be really pretty.

What are your goals for August?
I do like this string quilt! Your color layout is wonderful. I think this took planning. Thanks for sharing, and best of luck on your goal.
ReplyDeleteThose blue string blocks are very pretty - thanks for linking up with Elm Street Quilts One Monthly Goal and good luck on your project.
