Here we are at the beginning of another month. I need 3 projects to finish for my PhD in 2020 – time to step up my game. As I look over the year, I am pleased with what I have done and I think I can get 12 of my UFOs completed by the end of the year. As you can see below, there are a whole slew of finishes for new projects started in 2020 that are finished (16!). With the 9 UFOs, I finished, I am at 25 projects. I should be able to get 12 UFOs done and all the ones listed on the 2020 new quilts. I think that means means I have 34 finished projects for the year!
My Paula Nadelstern block is the one I will finish this month for my One Monthly Goal. I will make a second block and make a wall hanging. The trouble with this month is I will be away from Maine for a little more than I would like due to our strange schedules. I don’t think covid will change anything, but that might be taunting that nasty creature by even uttering those words!
I thought I would share a few other things I have been doing. I have attended a few seminars/launches on line and thought you might like to hear about them.
Stephanie Hackney of Hobbs Batting gave a seminar about all the different types of batting – I learned a lot about their batting. Here’s one You Tube video with some of the information she shared, and some of the facts she gave are on this page. There is also a sheet explaining some information that is handy to have – here’s a link. The seminar was sponsored by Batting Super Sale*. I love her service and she is very knowledgeable about her products – so get in touch with her and order and email any questions.
Now, Accuquilt was another seminar I watched. They were showing off these systems and there are more launch parts scheduled. Here is a registration link* for one on 11/17 at 12 CST. It is fun to watch, and sometimes there are prizes. I love my Accuquilt GO* and the starter set is a great way to get a lot of useful pieces. Having the 2 1/2″ strip cutter and 8″cube gives you lots of common shapes to cut from. On the other hand, I would consider the Accuquilt Go Me* as a great place to start and a little less money upfront while you check it out.
I also did a seminar from Shannon Fabrics on making a Cuddle Luxe Throw. There was a lot of good information here and there are a ton of these scheduled here. Also, I am doing an embroidery seminar from Sulky (link to seminar here). There is a lot out there, avail yourself of some new experiences…and see what you can find out.
Tell me what fun things you have been learning during these Covid Times.
