FNSI Wrap-Up

It doesn't look like much but I actually got quite a bit done. If you remember, this was my September APQ UFO Challenge. My September UFO is bleeding into October. Here's my excuse: I was gone for 2 weeks the end of September and mostly into October. How was I supposed to finish September let alone October????

Friday night found me in my sewing room. I actually got 6 or 7 blocks quilted! I thought I only had 6 more to go but it turns out I had 8. Since then I've finished off three more = only 5 more to go!!

Here's the picture before Friday Night Sew-In (Apparently I didn't take a "before picture". OOPS! So here's my most recent photo taken before Friday night):

And here's the picture as of today:

               

 I'm even sharing the back. This has been fun & easy to quilt since it was a "cheater" top. Each block has three borders to quilt and then there's 1 or 2 puddy tats. Depending on the details of the block, they only take about 20 - 25 minutes to do!

And here's a picture of the UFO I was supposed to be working on this month. Not going to happen which makes me sad. This quilt is supposed to go on my bed since it's queen-sized. Really, really, really wanted it on our bed this winter. Blah! 

As for my Loopy Academy projects, I've got 1 glove completed and the other about 80% done. Need to knock that out since the library book with the pattern I'm following is due Tuesday. Because I can't focus on only one thing at a time, I've also started a pair of socks. The requirement was a project with knitted bobbles. These socks will have that PLUS I've challenged myself into trying out 2-at-a-time, toe-up! Go, me!!!

I'll try to keep you up-to-date on my next project. We have an Australian quilter coming to teach us her method of applique and English Paper-Piecing (EPP) this Tuesday & Wednesday. See?? This is why there is no way I'd ever get my October UFO Challenge done this month. Not my fault!

Hope you managed to get in some stitching time this weekend. Here's to a great week ahead!
