April Goals Made!

 

So far I have completed: The ones with Photos.

 

1. The Cloud Mario QAL block (I am so behind in the QAL, if finished already and I am just finishing block 4/20).

 

 

2. Binding the orange quilt.

 

3. Finishing these burp clothes I have cut out.

 

I have 2 more to make.

 

 

4. The Stash Bee block of the month.
 

 

5. My block swap partner's block for this month.

 

This was the first one I made but it was too small so I decided to keep it for myself and make her another block.

 

 

This is what I ended up doing with the above block. I made it into a mug rug and tied it instead of machine quilting it :) I really like how it turned out.

 

 

 Here is the 2nd attempt at making my partner a block. I have not decided on if I want to sew the halves together in a "X" or an "O".... A little help?

 

 

Hubby decided it should be an "O." Thanks love!

 

 

6. The Woodland stitch-a-long for April (It is a Jackalope!)

 

 

And that is just the sewing list!

 

 My yarn crafting list has:

1. Finish knitting the rainbow baby dress for my cousin's baby.

2. Finish the washcloths for a client.

 

3. Finish the rainbow legwarmers.

 

4. Finish the rainbow (see a pattern here? I like rainbow a lot) crochet bobble tote.

I am waiting of yellow yarn. I ran out :(

 

I think that is enough on my plate with out biting off more than I can chew. LOL

 

Amendment! Here are some other projects I have added to the list!

 

This last week we had a workshop at church to learn how to decorate eggs. These are called Pisinka. Google them, there are some very beautiful eggs :) I did thins workshop last year and it as a blast. This year my hubby was interested in doing it too.

 

Clockwise: Green and light blue - the one I made this year, Light and dark blue - Hubby's attempt and he is pretty good at it!, black and blue with some purple - the one I made last year. there are better photos on my Facebook page.

 

 

 

Here are some the teacher had done:

 

 

Here is the mini quilt I finally finished for my partner. It took me so long to do it since my partner got switched out 3 times!

 

 

A baptismal gown, possibly for my niece/nephew or my Goddaughter I am not sure yet.

 

I headband I made while learning a new crochet stitch pattern.

So far so Good I think. I failed to complete 2 of the things listed: The Rainbow tote, though I am sure I will finish it up in no time. And the 2 other burp cloths, which I have just been too lazy to get to, though they are very easy.

April's Greenery

 I have another project I am working on But I do not think It will get done in time :(

March Madness (13-31)

None of this is on chronological order as it has been a few weeks since these projects happened.

 

Dress for Easter: Fully Lined. I finished it in a morning. :)

 

Baby Quilt for Lindsay's baby (my niece/nephew).

 

Crochet Afghan: saw this pattern and really wanted to make it. So I did. It took me about 2 weeks, with other projects in between and waiting for yarn to arrive in the mail. It was very tough to find one of the colors, the "light teal", so I just decided to use the regular teal. I love how it turned out. I ended up giving it to my dad on Easter. :)

 

A lovely Mini Quilt from my swap partner. I still have to finish her mini and send it out. It is 90% done though. Are not the mushrooms the cutest!

 

A random block form someone. I think it is supposed to be for the BSA but this is not the block I choose or are they the colors I close either. Oh well I just hope it was not for someone else and they are missing it.

 

Cute little apron I received from my partner for the Post Sewing Summit '12 Swap. I love the ruffles!

 

A baby blanket and changing pad I made for a friend who is having a little girl soon!

 

 

Some progress I have made on a scrap afghan. I am just going to work on it as I feel and as I accumulate scraps of leftover yarn.

 

That's all for April :)
