Q3 FAL Goals

It's time to list the goals for Quarter 3 Finish A Long. I have quite a few things I want to get done this quarter, before I head back to work in October after my maternity leave. This might be a bit of an ambitious list, but fingers crossed I stay on track!

1. Finish the Made to Measure Quilt. Only a couple of borders to go to get this quilt top complete, but the next one is a massive HST border and I'm not quite ready to tackle it yet!


2. Swoon 2013. I have 3 blocks done, and am doing this at a leisurely pace, but really want to have this done for the end of September. If you're still thinking about it, come over and join us on Flickr and on Instagram where we're using the #swoon2013 hashtag - we have almost 90 members Swooning again this year!


3. My crochet cardi for baby R. Not much to do on this now, and I hope to have it finished this week.


4. Placemats for my friend S - just need to quilt and bind these.


5. Liberty drunkards path cushion using these beautiful greys and blues:



6. Hexie Project: think these need to be a cushion (pillow) cover. I have almost all of them basted and need to start piecing.


7. Baby quilt. This has been hanging around unfinished for far too long. Time to move it off the UFO list!



 8. Lastly a carryover from my Q2 list - baste, quilt and bind my Ruby quilt top:



Do you think that's enough? I certainly do! Linking up with Leanne :-)

  5. Sarah, that's a lot of amazingly gorgeous projects you have going on right now. Can't wait to see how you quilt your Made to Measure quilt. I'm sure it will be stunning.

  12. It's interesting reading these to do lists. Baby R has obviously settled into a good routine and you are getting stuck into some projects during afternoon nap time. Good on you. I miss nap time! Now that my youngest is four he no longer naps and I've gone back to work, so no afternoons free any more.

  13. I love your placemats and baby blocks but my favourite has to be the medallion quilt. I love colours espcially the neutral BGF. Really pretty.

  14. Oh! I am also working on made to measure! Funny I am at the point you are....I have had to really think about the color for the next border - it is a big one. I love the colors you have chosen!

  15. I love the first quilt, well, I love all the other projects too but the medallions are calling me.
    It is a great list, I am looking forward to seeing the finishes.
