So yesterday, you heard my story about printing labels. Last night, I was prepping the second sheet of labels that I wanted to print and well, I'm always telling people that you should give credit to the pattern maker, inspiration or whatever.
I print four labels on one sheet. I was good with two labels, but I had two quilts made from patterns and where could those darn patterns be? I searched through my patterns and NOPE - I can't find either one. I took pictures and posted them on Facebook and I got the name of ONE of the quilts!!! Yeah - and big thanks to Peggy.
The second one? I don't think I'll be able to find it. I found this blog post from 2015 when I made the original quilt. It's the bright colored one! Guess what - I couldn't find the pattern then! It was a free pattern that came with a pack of 42-inch squares. It had a name - duh! Rainbow??? And I'm sort of thinking it came from Timeless? Tonga? Oh - I know the pattern is here, but since it was a single sheet of paper, there's a good chance it's in a pile somewhere. I've searched the internet and no luck in finding it. So if anyone knows that pattern - I would like to know the name of it!!!!
Home from class yesterday and ready to work. The Task Master is calling my name and although I'm getting work done, I might have been a bit aggressive in scheduling some activities.
BUT - I did get the labels on three quilts and the sleeve on one and now these three quilts are ready to fly the coop. There is a bit of a timing issue with a couple of them so they won't be leaving until after Christmas and then I can share them with you. Yep - those were on the list! Check, check and check!

Then I spend a good part of yesterday working on something else that is on the list. Sorry - can't share as it's a gift as well. Hope to be done by Tuesday so I can share with you then.
I was so focused this morning that I didn't even pay attention to the time. The dogs are pretty good in the morning and will leave me alone - after they do their initial quick business outside and when I came upstairs - it was almost 7:30. Time for the dog park. Now I'm trying to thaw out. I looked at the temperature and while it's not cold outside, the wind is a bit brisk! Tea and hot porridge and hand warmers should do the trick!
But the fun part is that I get to do whatever I want today. Well - you know what I mean - no appointments, no commitments, no shopping, no parties or baking. I'm so obsessed with sewing and it's been almost twenty years??? God help me!
I did get some made up pet mats yesterday and also some empty ones. Which is great as I have a bag of filling from my cutting table that I just threw into a plastic bag because I haven't had time to make up a fabric one yet. Thanks, Mary!!!

I am missing a zipper for my project today! ONE blasted zipper. While I have lots, I need a specific color and I need thread - lots of different colors. So I pulled out all the thread - I don't think I'm going to need more. This should suffice - I hope. Nope - just remembered, I need dark brown thread as well.
Lots of thread colors |
Don't forget that tomorrow is MONDAY. That means there's another exciting episode of Motivational Monday. Get on board and get those UFOs DONE!!!!!.
On that note - I'm off to have a play date in the sewing room!!!
Have a super day!!!!
Ciao!!!

Looks like your quilt.
Looking forward to tomorrow's post - hoping you will finally release the details of the Taskmaster!
ReplyDeleteSyncopated Rhythm. I faved the post where you showed the pattern name
ReplyDeleteOH MY GOD!!!!! That's the name!!!!!!! THANKS!!!!!
DeleteSoooo, now that it is in front of me again and I think I would really like to make that and I go search for that pattern and it is to be had nowhere! Bummer
DeleteI can't even offer you any assistance. Well - I don't have the pattern, but I could show you how it's done! I do remember that!
DeleteI take it that it is a cut and shuffle? Is it similar to the scrap crazy? or the magic tiles?
