To-Do Tuesday #103

Good morning!  I'm checking in with Chris and friends at Chrisknits today to share my to-do list for the week. 

September is almost here!  It's my birthday month and fall is on the way, so always a favorite month of the year for me.  Something extra coming this month is the book launch blog hop for Kelly Young's new book, Scrappy Improv Quilting. Kelly blogs at My Quilt Infatuation.  You can find more info about the book by clicking the link.

I'm excited to be part of the blog hop for Kelly's new book, and happy to say that my quilt is ready to share!  I love being ahead on *something!* 😎


That was something from my to-do list last week that was accomplished.  Also on the list:
  • Play with those leftover HSTs for a squirrel project.  Done!  Check out my tiny finish here
  • Connect the five question mark blocks for the Full Stop sampler quilt with the background fabrics to make the row.  Done!  And you'll notice in the photo that I got back to work joining my Positivity blocks into rows,  too.  Whoop whoop!

On this week's list:
  • Keep going on Positivity!
  • September will have a new color for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge, so it will be time to get out that color and work on my monthly projects.
  • Finish up another one of my recent embroidery designs into a small wall-hanging.
Have a great week everyone!

congratulations on being part of a blog hop - that should be fun. Your quilts are looking good. It is hard to believe it is September tomorrow and our birthday month I remember ours are days apart. I personally am glad for fall coming as I am tired now of summer as I always I am at this point and looking forward to sweater weather.

I haven't followed Kelly since I moved away from the modern guild. Time to take another look. Congrats on being included in the blog hop.

If you were working on a blog hop entry, you were busy! I looking forward to the hop, I like Kelly’s patterns! I’m excited for a new color and new Full Stop block! Hope all is well in Angela’s world! September is a big birthday month in our family too! Great grandson, husband, BIL and son. When is your birthday?

How exciting to be part of that hop. I see you are in the botanics category, and I can't wait to see your quilt! Aren't birthday months fun!

Slowly but steadily the plus blocks are coming along. I am sure RSC color for September is Orange. I am looking forward to your take on Kelly's design. Which one is Botanics? I am making the birds.
