Scrappy Monday

Oh boy.... My "Just do It" started this weekend... I started on the top left cubby, and cleaned it out.... lots of extra papers that apparently I thought I needed... I did - they started our fire this morning lol/....

In that Blue Bucket (the second cubby) - labeled *stuff*  I found these:  and now I will hang my head in shame ( sort of cuz I am not really ashamed ...more like a dork!)

Remember way back in 2009 when Bonnie Hunter offered the Mystery called Carolina Christmas?  well - I finished it in 2011... and these ... these are the little cutoffs that were left over......

So  - I started ironing.... and playing on my design wall - and here is what I finished:

And sadly - or maybe I should be excited - there are more left.....

Oh - and there was also that Batting Tape - that you can iron on to scraps and make bigger battings... and a light. I wondered where that flash light had gone.... *sigh*

I guess I will work on this for a while, and see what I can come up with. I mean - its almost going to be a free quilt right????

Slice and Dice Quilt top is Done!

I think I might be suffering from a little bit of QDD going on this week. I always do better when I am all organized and planned.... but all sorts of things went wonky this week. A band concert came up that wasn't on the calendar, and unplanned trip to town, another snow storm.... nothing huge , just time consuming!

And so... this is what my cutting table looks like..... oh boy.....

On a good note - I finally finished this top - it needs to be quilted, and well, I guess it needs a back too. But!! I am going to be excited that the top is finished!!!  

I had a lot of fun slicing and dicing and framing, and doing math ( okay not really - but sort of) to make it all fit, and be a quilt top!  It was also fun to play with solids... I like them.......

Do you ever get QDD when you have finished something?

January's to Do List

Instead of choosing UFO's to finish for the whole year I am going to join in with Judy and just choose the things I want to get done in the month. The big things.... I always have tons of little things going on....

So for January 

• 1. Quilt my Purple Pineapple   ( this is a carryover from my 2012 list - but you still love me right?)
• 2. Finish my Wildlife Double Slice quilt ( its on my design wall RIGHT. SMACK. NOW!)
• 3. Start to Quilted my New Years Day Quilt of Valor
• 4. Start on my HMQS Challenge Quilt. It's due in April - if I start now - I have a chance right?

Hope this keeps me on track!! For 2012 I finished 9 of the 12 things I listed... that is not to shabby - considering that most of them needed to be Quilted. My Long-armer needs to make me a priority ( oh wait! That;s me!!)   Tee hee!!

What's on your list?
