Weekly Update

Quilting:

I've been sick this week and didn't have the energy to get the iron out most days, so that's made quilting a bit of a challenge, but I finally finished Parts 11 & 12 of Forget Me Not, a sew-along by Pam Buda of Heartspun Quilts. These are the last 2 blocks in the project. This Friday Pam will give us instructions for the setting.

I also got some work done on Whirlwind, the September installment of the Block of the Month series by Deanne Eisenman of Snuggles Quilts. I had to do some frogging and resewing since I'd assembled some of the pieces in the wrong order, but I still managed to make really good progress on it.

Blackwork:

I got one square about halfway done on the Blackwork Chessboard by Anne MacGregor.

 

Cross Stitch:

Then there's Elements of Nature I, which is adapted from the artwork of Jennifer Pugh.

Swedish Weaving:

And the Feathers To and Fro afghan from Learn to Make Monk’s Cloth Afghans by Marilyn T. Magly.

Crochet:

I finished 1 more blue flower and 5 more leaves for the 2nd panel of the Morning Glory afghan designed by Michele Maks. That makes 7 out of 7 blue flowers, 6 out 6 purple flowers, and 6 out of 26 leaves.

Knitting:

I did a little more embroidery on the center panel of the Octopus Garden Blanket by Georgia Vincent.

Finishing:

And, finally, I sewed one border strip onto Tech Support, a design by Linda Connors of Calico Crossroads®, adapted from the artwork of Kathleen Kelly of Kats by Kelly™.
