October 2022 Short List and OMG

The days are shorter, the air is cooler and Fall is here. That means more time for sewing and stitching, right?

I finished two projects last month, My Sewing Treasures and a project bag. Only one new project made the October list.

Project One: The Tiny Modernist Holiday 2022 SAL. I had a slow start and am way behind. The pattern has more stitching than I anticipated. I’m about 1/3 through the first month but have the patterns for the first two.

Project Two: The pinwheel charity quilt. I’m framing the pinwheel blocks to get them all the same size. I also redesigned the layout. About half the blocks are framed.

Project Three: I am cutting and sewing pieces for a Traffic Jam quilt (free pattern by Pat Sloan). This is a leader and ender project.

Project Four: The November challenge in my Art Quilt Group is to make something from a piece of fused fabric. I talked about the process here.

Project Five: I am working on the pattern for the 2023 AQS Ultimate Guild Challenge quilt.

Most of these projects are long term. Although the list is one shorter, it’s still a lot of projects.

We have a lot going on this month and my creative time will be limited. With that in mind, my OMG will be to finish framing the pinwheel blocks.
