10 Things of Summer

I am making a list of things I would like to get done this summer. I am linking with Here goes:


1, and 2. Finish twin size quilt for Chris and Tim. These were mystery quills that I started  in 2009. The crappy border held me up for quite awhile. Then I need to add a 6 inch border around it.





3. Make my Lincoln Schnibble out of the Santuary charm packs that I have. I am hoping it will give the quilt a romantic feel to it.

4. Start Spice Cake which will be a twin size quilt for Karyn. I am going to use the fabric pictured below. Karyn picked the colors. I still need to get the white material to go with it.

5. Make the August Schnibble pattern whatever that ends up being.

6. Begin  the big stitch quilting on my Kim Diehl project from a couple of years ago. This is called Scrap Basket Blossom. The piecing and applique are all done.


7. Finish the machine applique on Gathering Gardens from a workshop with Kim Diehl. I also need to add the borders to this quilt and then it will be ready to quilt.





8. I want to finish collecting material for this pattern by Kim Diehl called Vintage Berry Blossoms.

9. To start one of the many quilt-a-longs on the internet. Not sure which one yet.

10. Finish my niece's t shirt quilt. The quilt is all put together and just needs to be tied or machine quilted depending on what she decides to do. Nicole picked the border fabric but I think she would like it better with a darker fabric. We'll see. This is for her couch in her first apartment. The t shirts are all ones that mean a lot to her and she didn't want to throw them out.
