To-Do Tuesday #24

My 24th week of linking to Home Sewn By Us for To-Do Tuesday

To-Do Tuesday for the Week of June 23 through June 30:

1. Finalize the Hope quilt placement of blocks and sew them together. yes
2. Do more FMQ on yellow brick road quilt yes
3. Complete dolphin runner top and start FMQ yes

1 I changed the arrangement from my photo from last week of the Hope quilt.  I have rows sewn and just need to sew the rows together.  I will show it later.

2 I have almost all of the center quilted on the yellow brick road and did the yellow border in a lazy 8.  Three photos showing some of the FMQ flowers and squiggles and the first border in the lazy 8.

3 The dolphin runner top is done and backing chosen and just waiting for the batting that I ordered.

Something new (new to me) that I discovered this past week.............IGTV...

Since I really like the Bluprint classes by Christina Cameli,  I started following her on IG and her FB group.  She has an IGTV tab on her IG and I had never heard of it before.  Go to her IG afewscraps and it is the center image and you can see short tutorial videos she has done on FMQ.  Now....how really cool is that!!!

To-Do Tuesday for the Week of June 30 through July 6:

1. Work on UFO quilt project
2. FMQ at least 4 days practice or a project
3. Work on an online class lesson at least 4 days this week.

To-Do Tuesday #23 and Hope quilt

My 23rd week of linking to Home Sewn By Us for To-Do Tuesday

To-Do Tuesday for the Week of June 16 through June 22:

1. Finish the B blocks on the Hope quilt and decide on the layout yes
2. FMQ on the yellow brick road quilt yes
3. Work on the dolphin tablerunner yes
4. Work in my creative journal and Joanne Sharpe classes yes
5. Make some more blocks for scrappy around the cabin quilt yes

1 I have the Hope blocks on some batting and decided on the design layout without paying much attention to colors...just alternating the A and B blocks.  I think this is the layout I will use.

2  To the yellow brick road quilt....I added easy peasy flower by Lori Kennedy that she had on her blog this week.  It is fun to do.

3  To the dolphin runner...I have the cornerstones and sashing rows done and pinned ready to add.

4  I finished pages in my creative journal and the Joanne Sharpe 2020 Artfully Inspired Life book..

5  I finished 5 more scrappy strips around the cabin blocks and not all are squared because of all different size blocks.  I will square them when I put all of them together.  I have a total of 50 done......not sure how many more I will make.

To-Do Tuesday #22

I skipped several weeks with my weekly goals...took a break.

This is my 22nd week of linking with Home Sewn By Us for To-Do Tuesday.

The last time I wrote my goals....it was to watch a lot of Bluprint classes...

AND that is what I have been doing.  I was downloading some and watching and watching and taking notes because the end of my subscription was coming.  AND there is no word yet when Bluprint will end.

To my surprise several days ago my subscription renewed....for another year!  

To-Do Tuesday for the Week of June 16 through June 22:

1. Finish the B blocks on the Hope quilt and decide on the layout
2. FMQ on the yellow brick road quilt
3. Work on the dolphin tablerunner
4. Work in my creative journal and Joanne Sharpe classes
5. Make some more blocks for scrappy around the cabin quilt

Here is the photo of some of the blocks spread on the table with the dolphin tablerunner laying on top......

Online classes

I enjoy taking online classes and spend almost every day watching at least some of my online classes.  And I have learned a lot.  I usually spend the time getting my steps as I watch the computer screen!  

When Bluprint announced they are closing...........it was so shocking to think I was losing my forever classes............and not be able to watch all the other classes that were available with my subscription.....thousands in all different subjects!  It never occurred to me that I would at some point lose all of this!!  Now I am downloading those I want to save and watching as many as I can.

Does anyone have some really good classes on Bluprint that they think are a MUST to watch?  AND are their favorites?

I am not doing the list of things to do this week as I have been doing on Tuesdays!

Smiles and hugs....Caryl
