Make the Etchings cushion for my best friend. Done! And she loves it. Yay!
Lozenge paper piecing. Done! I made a tote bag and promptly decided to have a giveaway. Not even sure why that happened, but happy it did. The bag has gone off to a good home to be used and abused. (Seeing these photos, I think I want to make another one!)
One for the Birds - which featured on lists every quarter I think. Done! I am so happy with this. The recipient says she is happy with it too. I get real satisfaction from finally seeing this project through to the end.
My Brit Bee quilt. No chance! I pretty well knew that when I put it on the list. I don't have all the blocks yet, and I don't mind one bit - mostly as it provides me with a ready excuse why it wasn't done. I know it wouldn't be done even if I had all the blocks but we won't get into that. There are so many beautiful blocks waiting to be turned into this quilt and it excites me every time I look at them. My bee buddies are the absolute best.
My Mouthy Stitches tote for the swap. Done! This had to be done, it was a sure fire guarantee finish as being one of the mamas means I am not allowed to mess up. Hadley and Cindy would skin me alive. (They wouldn't obviously, they would cover for me but I wouldn't want to let them down ever.)
Turn my diamond hexie epp mini into a cushion. Fail! Not sure why, just had too many other things going on. It will only take a short time to do, and eventually it will happen. Meanwhile it lives very happily in my storage box.
So there you have it. I finished four of six projects. I am not going to go on about other stuff I made. We all made stuff before Christmas. I am just going to sit quietly here, smiling, happy that I made things I like. Gave things I liked to people I like and they liked them too. It's all good.
I'm linking this up to Rhonda's post and am off to look at what other people got done.

Well done you!! I often add finished things to my list, just so I can tick them off. Crazy I know, but very satisfying. Sarah
ReplyDelete4 out of 6 is amazing, esp. given all the other stuff you were making and doing! Well done! Jxo
ReplyDeleteBrilliant finishes. I like looking back on your lovely makes. Di x

ReplyDeleteI love what you finished...and what you didn't! I'm amazed you managed to tick so many things off your list, what with everything going on and all the other things you made! Have fun making your list for this quarter!
ReplyDeleteThey all look fabulous, love the diamond epp, did you use a pattern for it, or make it up yourself? (I know you are very clever like that!) Ange x
ReplyDeleteNot bad eh. That's pretty darn good as you had Christmas and all those presents to make during that time too. They are all super fab, so well done Mrs.
ReplyDeleteWell 4 out of 6 is pretty good in my books. I've loved how this FAL has pushed us to get things finished!
ReplyDelete4 out of 6 is brilliant - especially as they are such fab makes!
ReplyDeleteHey you did loads! And all so bloomin lovely too :-)
ReplyDeleteYou did a grand job! Given one is incomplete and the other only an hour it two away from being finished I'd call that quarter a total success! Abigail pat on the back to you!
ReplyDeleteAbigail ???? (Auto correct!!) a big pat on the back to you!
ReplyDelete4 out of 6 is great!
ReplyDeleteConsidering Christmas was chucked in there to trip us all up I think you did an AMAZING job. One for the Birds is gorgeous, love the etchings cushion and your totes are tres magnifique.
ReplyDeleteThis is the first time I've seen One for the birds, and I think I can spot a couple of familiar birdies in there! It looks brill (or should that be "trill?!") :) x
ReplyDeleteI agree, well done! The bird quilt is really lovely and are the rest but the birds are my favourite.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a pretty good success rate to me, especially in the run up to Christmas!
ReplyDeleteFabulous finishes. 4 out of 6 is brilliant (and I should know, haha) especially with all the other things you were making before Christmas
ReplyDeleteYour results re stunning and so will the unfinished ones be too! I still love how bright that swap tote is!!
ReplyDeleteI love love! that mouthy stitches tote with the hand quilting and citrus colors. It's gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteI think my cushion is the least colorful thing you made, but it goes great in my living room and I really do love it.
ReplyDeleteLots of lovelies! That bird quilt reminds me of a wall of family photos - very fun! And that bottom pic makes me think I need to start an EPP project soon... Love it!
ReplyDeleteWell done, you've made some really lovely things this quarter!!
ReplyDeleteFabulous finishes - I think you did just great. I love your diamond EPP especially. I think I'm going to do this FAL this year with Leanne.
ReplyDeleteIt's incredible how much you can do, and everything gorgeous. x
