UFO Granny Squares

Hello there !!

I found this lovely crocheted granny squares among bundles of my yarns last Saturday. It reminds me of my initial plan which was to make it into a cardigan for my daughter.  However it was half way done and I forgot about it. This will be my 1st UFO for 2024.  Target to finish it by end of this month. 

Happy Crocheting to all out there!!

2013 Finish-A-Long : 3rd Quarter

Hello!
 

 

Here I am again...with my list of UFOs that I wish to look into finishing in the 3rd quarter of this year.  This time I list my UFOs in photos  and label each of the project name below to the link when I started all these projects...

1. Garden Steps Quilt  2. Sunburst Granny Square Afghan 3. Long skirt 4. Bags 5. Postage Stamp Quilt  6. Geranium Baby dress

Garden Steps Quilt was a finished project from Quilt Along that I joined in 2012 hosted by mother/daughter team at Clover & Violet.

 

I also include one UFO crochet project in the list.  Hope it is OK with the Finish-A-Long rules.  It is my first crochet along that I joined in 2011 hosted by Scotti over at  Oxford Family.

 

Third in the list is the fabric that I've cut and seage for making a long skirt for my daughter.  I never share about it at my blog so I can't show how long I've beeen keeping the fabrics.

 

Fourth are bags inspired from the market tote quilt along that I participated in 2011.  The quilt along was  hosted at Clover & Violet. 

 

Fifth is the scrappy postage stamp quilt which I finished the top in March 2012. 

 

And last but not least the project that I look into finishing is this Geranium Baby dress(small size).  I found the free pattern at Made By Rae  which I download and start cutting the fabric early of this year. 

 

Happy Sewing!

 

June goals

Hello!

May has been a busy month for me...not busy with sewing but with my children and my day work.  Looking back in May...I only have two finishes which are pouches and crocheted cushion cover.  This scraptacular quilt is still a work in progress... Sewing that I did so far... and I machine quilt it.

So it will be my main project to finish for A Lovely Year of Finishes for June 2013.  I'm linking to join the party over at Fiber of All Sorts

Other UFOs project that I look into finishing in June are...to piece these tiny Value Added blocks into a quilt top. I've started this quilt sometime last year and left it half way done.

and to start hand quilt this garden steps quilt top.
