2018 Finish It Up Challenge



Well, this has helped me the last couple of years, so I'm going to do this again!

Here's my list for 2018:
  • Stitch a design for the candlescreen that I have
  • Finish hand-quilting the Bullseye Quilt
  • Finish the log cabin star wall hanging
  • Start hand-quilting my grand aunt's grandmother's flower garden quilt top
  • Clean up the nook area in my sewing room
  • Finish the mystery quilt top I've started (all clues haven't been posted yet)
  • Clean and re-frame my hummingbirds cross stitch
  • Post all the stuff I have waiting to be listed in my Etsy shop
  • Clean up my scrapbooking area
  • Make a start on archival scanning of all my family photographs
  • Get my printed recipes put into my recipe software (Living Cookbook)

I might "find" a few more items to put on this list but I think I'll leave it here for now.

Happy Stitching!

2017 FIU final progress report



Ok, here is what my final FIU list for 2017 looks like:

Here's my list for 2017:
  • Put all my loose floss on bobbins
  • Stitch a design for the candlescreen that I have
  • Assemble my Happy Blocks quilt top
  • Assemble my Crumbs quilt top
  • Finish hand-quilting the Bullseye Quilt - made it just past the 50% mark
  • Finish the Log Cabin Star wallhanging - need to add borders
  • Hand-quilt at least 10 blocks on my Christmas Strings quilt
  • Finish my Through the Storm cross stitch as a free-standing block
  • Finish my green Temari ball
  • Finish 1 of my Santa kits (not cross stitch)
  • Make bookcases for my sewing room
  • Decorate wooden "S" for my sewing room

I didn't finish as much as I'd like on last year's list but at least some of it did get completed and others saw progress.  I am going to do this again for 2018 but I'll list that in a separate post.

Happy Stitching!
