I have linked up my Q4 2012 finishes already; I didn't write a whole new post, as I had finished all 7 items on my list back at the end of November, and blogged about them here. How did you get on? It was my best quarter ever for finishes.
Linking in 2013 with the new hostess with the mostest, Leanne, I know for sure that she will continue the successes encouraged by awesome Rhonda throughout 2012. Thank you Rhonda for getting this brilliant ball rolling!
Leanne has a calming influence in my frequently hectic and emotional existence, so I am thrilled that she will be there, making things better, keeping a level head and encouraging us all.
I did joke after Christmas that I better start a few projects just so that I could make a list, which was kind of true. Like many of us, Christmas Makes were the be-all and end-all of the last couple of months, so once the gift-giving was done, I was free to start new projects again. And start I did.
So here are my four for the first quarter...
1. #scrappytripalong
2. Sizzix Commission
I have two quilts to make for Sizzix by the end of the month; I have batting and backing for these (grr!), and the top of the first one completed already, and they HAVE to be done, so I will be putting the pedal to the metal on these soon.
3. A hexie project
I know, a bit vague. I have started basting a bunch of lovely hexies which I trimmed from the mini-charms sent to me by this lovely lady; I have a couple of ideas, but want to see them all hexed up before I commit!
4. Brit Bee 2 - Diamond Nipples
This one is kind of out of my hands for the immediate future. My block is made, but once the others head back my way, I am not one to hang around and will get those mega-blocks made into another BB smasher. Well it's a plan!
So there we have my hopes for Q1, and I am sure I will start, and maybe finish a load more and have a bigger list in Q2!!
ooh, these all look gorgeous, and not too ambitious either!
ReplyDeleteGreat plans, I can't wait to see the rest of your #scrappytripalong top!
ReplyDeleteI'm so jealous of your lack of UFOs! Well done!
ReplyDeleteLove the scrappy quilt. I have put my bee blocks on this quarter as well, can't wait to get it sewn up. I finished all the hexies you sent me, but will be adding to them as they are so addictive!
ReplyDeleteI foresee some beautiful finishes on the horizon!
ReplyDeleteFour is a good number and I think this list is very doable.
ReplyDeleteA great list Had, and completely do-able! Jxo
ReplyDeleteHmm, thinks of a subterfuge way to delay #4 til next quarter - bwahahahahaha ;o)
ReplyDeleteI do love the scrappy quilt, I can see you finishing these in the 1st month.
ReplyDeleteI'm still working on my list, but have no doubt your will finish your list on schedule
ReplyDeleteI am not linking up this quarter, i think i'll start next quarter, how's that for procrastination! I love all of your projects, but the Sizzix quilt top looks cool, can't wait to see how that turns out. : )
ReplyDeleteWell, that should keep you out df mischief! Lovelies all of them!
ReplyDeleteYou are going to be busy...but I know you can do it! x
ReplyDeleteummm, diamond nipples? Bwahahahahahaaa!
ReplyDeleteYou could at least pretend you had more of a backlog Hadley! Great quilt title BTW! And it is going to be a fantastic quilt....again!
ReplyDeleteI am almost afraid to ask but why diamond nipples?
ReplyDeleteHmmm, might have to join in to make up for my failed completion of the hustle last year!
ReplyDeleteHmmm, might have to join in to make up for my failed finishes in the hustle last year! :-)
ReplyDeleteYou sure make me sound good, I hope I can live up to your expectations. The projects are all excellent, I am looking forward to seeing them progress and finish.
ReplyDeleteI really like the first one with the pink squares. Good luck with them.
