To-Do Tuesday #191

Goodbye, July, and Hello, August!  I had a few different things on my to-do list to finish out the month of July.  Did I get them done?

Quilting on Rainbow Neighbourhood is completed and the binding is almost finished.  In fact, I bet it will be done by the time I hit publish on this post.  Just about 20 inches or so left to stitch!

I'll plan to write up a finished post for Rainbow Neighbourhood 
towards the end of the week.

The tea cup embroidery mini quilt is also finished.   This was a fun little project!



I also finished up the borders on my mini version of Scrap Dance Quadrille, designed by Carole at From My Carolina Home.   I'm not particularly happy with this picture of it - I have pressed it several times and yet it still looks like it needs more!   Hopefully after quilting it will look better.  Next step is to figure out a backing for this one.

This is about 34 inches square.

On this week's to-do list:
  • Photograph and write up a post about Rainbow Neighbourhood.
  • Get started on some yellow blocks for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge color of the month for August.
  • Work on a backing for Scrap Dance Quadrille.  Maybe! 
I'm sure I'll have plenty to keep busy with!  Joining in with Carol and friends at Quilt Schmilt for To-DoTuesday!

  2. I like your Quadrille colors, It will probably flatten out as it is quilted, and you'll like it more. Cute teapot mini.
