Weekly Progress Plus “Autumn Jubilee” Begins

   For several years I have enjoyed following along with Carole for her Autumn Jubilee events and this month you can too. She shares all types of crafts, free projects and fun ideas. With her Autumn Jubilee quilt patterns I have made a large lap quilt, a table top quilt, placemats and more, and she shares a lot more than quilting projects. You also have a chance for some wonderful prizes.

    Last week I had a few days to focus on quilt projects and then special time with family. I continued piecing the columns of geese with one more column sewn. Only 2 more to go. I made progress on some Celtic applique motifs for son's quilt, prepared batting and backing for the “Fall Memories” wall-hanging and used stash fabric to cut a variation of the 3 yd "County Fair" quilt. Most of Wednesday was spent with my church quilt group and that evening worked with the quilting class.

    The rest of the week was a special time with family. Friday morning was enjoyed at “Grandparent's Day at GD- M's HS with entertainment, a tour and lunch. 

     Most of Saturday was enjoyed watching GD- M's soccer game.  There was time for GD- L making “dirt” pudding and she pieced the last 10 blocks for her new quilt. Sunday afternoon I watched GD-L's soccer game and then girls helped add details to Dosi's Scooby-Doo costume. 


 Sorry I didn't take a photo when Dosi tried her costume on. It is great that she loves to wear coats.

    Stash fabric used or added:

    this past week-   Used: 3 yds Added: 0 yds
    So far this year- Used: 127.625 yds Added: 41.75 yd
    Net decrease 92.875 yds

Goals for this week:

  1. Finalize Celtic applique motifs
  2. Piece another column of geese
  3. Start quilting a SQG comfort quilt

Stay safe and healthy while enjoying some time sewing and quilting.
