1 Done

Today I finally finished the one twin quilt, however yesterday I gave up hope of finishing both, because I have to work every day next week, including Saturday.
So yesterday Josh and I bought Courtney a Christmas present, and I will try to get hers done by her Birthday, but its Jan 11th, so not much time, we shall see.
Also while we were out, I found a penny at Toys R Us, so that brings our total up to 3.10.

Here is the display of my finished quilt.

So this is on my queen sized bed... its supposed to be a twin... oops.

Top finished

Oh my goodness!
I finally finished the top to quilt 1, I have been a slacker, but I told Josh, I will be working until midnight until I get both done... so... 6 more hours of quilting... :D

what do you think the binding should be?

perhaps bring in a fabric not in the quilt?? like a plain purple?

HSTs DONE!

Thats right!
I finally finished the HSTs for the first quilt,
I've been cutting every day what I got done the day before as I go, so I dont have that much more trimming

Beginning December

Well, I remembered that in my last post I forgot to update how much money I had found... so I'm making that my first priority today. Over the past 4 months, I have found .41 cents... some were found at lowes, home depot, Justice and Kohls (a whole quarter at Kohls). That brings my total to $3.09, not exactly the number I was hoping for nearing this close to the end of the year. But its better than nothing :D

Also I remembered I forgot to mention, I checked another item off of my New Years Resolutions. I ran my first 5K, and finished in 31 minutes and 7 seconds.
yey!

So as far as quilting goes.
I have been working when I can, I finished sewing together 1/2 of my HSTs, I also cut them in half and trimmed them.

Then I was busy sewing the other 1/2 , and my sewing machine started acting weird and eating my fabric, I decided it needed a rest, so I have been working on cutting the other half apart and trimming them.

Making progress I guess.

Count down: 20 days.

1. Finish HSTs
