Projects that need finishing

There are many projects of mine that are sitting unfinished around the house.  I suppose it might be high time to get them out and start on them again.  

Most of the time my projects are practically done when I pull them out again.  To find and finish all of them will be a long process but it needs to be done.
My brother's wedding quilt.  I finished the top yesterday.  So now all that is left is putting together the back and quilting it.  Should take me a couple days but it needs to be done.  And will be by Christmas, I swear!

Kaleidoscopic quilt - The top is complete.  I will need to figure out how to quilt it.  I'm again in a queen size bed so it needs a queen size quilt.

 Patriotic quilt - This quilt is meant to be a decorative piece.  I had two of these.  Now I only have one as  I gave one to my mom, but she has to finish it!

 Another diamond quilt - I have enough queen size quilts already that I don't need another.  This quilt was also claimed by my mom to use in the guest bedroom at my parents house.  It looks great in the room, brings a lot of life inside.

Diamond baby quilt #1 - The top is complete and the batting and backing are attached.  All that needs to be done is quilting the pieces together. 

 Diamond baby quilt #2 - same as above!

 Diamond baby quilt #3 - triple that!

And some of them are complete.  I'll show them off on future posts!

Something old and something new

 Wedding planning is taking much of my time these days but there is something else wedding related that I need to get finished.  My brother and his wife just got married two months ago and I promised them a quilt.

Horizontal stripes

 I was practically done with the quilt top when I stopped.  It didn't take very long for me to the majority of the top.  I'm going to put a black border around it as both the length and width are too short.  Now it is the newly married couple's choice on which way the waves go.

And now the something new.  I have been wandering the internet and found this cute idea for coasters.  I would love to have a homemade wedding favor that somebody will actually use.  These are a contender, depending on how long they take. 

Cheers coasters

 If this was the gift I would have to make about 200 of them!  Yikes!

Back to work tomorrow but that will not stop me from working on projects anyways.

Vacation time

I finally get to take some time off from work and life.  The boyfriend is coming into town and we are going to visit San Francisco! My first time there and his too!  And of course Disneyland too.

While I'm out playing I have many projects in mind to make soon.

Halloween Costume - Rapunzel

Diamond Pillow - more colorful of course

Bow Pillow

And my brother's Wedding Quilt

Plus so many more it is difficult to remember them all and find time for them.  

I should be back in about a week, not that too many people read this blog anyways besides my mom and boyfriend anyways!

The first quilt done!

I had to take a couple days off from my flog.  My work schedule doesn't always allow for time to work on projects or have time to post them.  Only a couple more pieces of this quilt to finish.  Well, at the least the top is almost done.  This much I finished yesterday.

And today it is done!

 I laid it on a full size bed but it was made to fit a queen.  It looks great!

 And only a small injury in the process!

If you know me, I can't just work on one project at a time.  Back to work my brother's wedding quilt.  Here is a preview of it.
