To-Do Tuesday #133

Good morning!   I'm joining in with Linda and friends at Texas Quilt Gal for the To-Do Tuesday link-up, sharing what I've been working on and my new list for this coming week.


It's been a cold, windy week here, so that has meant plenty of time for sewing, and I've gotten quite a bit done!   

On last week's list:
  • Make progress on Full Stop.  ✔  The top four rows are ready to sew together!

  • Make progress on turning the two embroidery designs into pillow covers. ✔  The first step in that process is to layer the top onto some batting, and do some simple quilting.  Here's Mrs. March Hare all quilted up!
The next step here is to make the pieces for the envelope backing, and get the whole cover sewn together.  It would nice to be able to have this pillow on display for Easter!

  • I also made progress on quilting the charm pack quilt, see my post here, and staying caught up with pink Rainbow Scrap Challenge blocks for April, posted about here.
Since all of these projects are ongoing, they'll stay on the list, with more progress on them as my goal.  But I am adding one more to-do, and that involves some new fabric!

This is my purchase for Sandra's Pop Star QAL that has just started.
Cutting instructions will be posted this coming Saturday, 
so it will be time to get going on that.  I'm excited to get started on this one!

Plenty to work on this week!

Oh Diann! Full stop is WONDERFUL! I love your bunny pillow! The embroidery is wonderful! Your slow stitch project from Sunday is gorgeous too! Wishing you a wonderful day!

Great progress, as usual. My Bible blocks didn't influence your fabric choice, by chance?

Ahh, I clicked the link and see your inspiration. I may have to get that pattern ...

Hi Diann! Oooh, that fabric pull for Pop Star looks like fun! I'm so glad you said that cutting instructions are just going to be released. I thought it might be too late to join in. I don't know if I can but I should at least give it a good consideration! Good luck with this week's projects. {{Hugs}} ~smile~ Roseanne

You had a productive week. The full stop quilt top is amazing and love how your pillow covers are shaping up. All the best for the week.

Those fabrics are just beautiful. I'll look forward to seeing how your star turns out! Mrs. March Hare is so pretty.
Thank you for sharing with To do Tuesday!
