One Monthly Goal - June's Goal

  

Here we are in June already. Time to pick this months goal. 

I really want to complete a project on my UFO list but don't have a lot of time this month. I had a quick look at my list and there is a panel quilt on it that was at quilting stage. I have done the quilting, so it only needs binding to complete it. That is it for this month.

The binding is the same as the first border. I should be able to make a label and bind it during June.

I have linked my post up with Elm Street Quilt Goal setting post, so pop over and check out what everyone is up to this month.

Until Next Time

Keep Stitching

Missed it by that much

It's been a while since I had some sewing time. It has been busy with the Sewing Stitching & Handicraft Show, teaching and running the shop. 

So today I got a little session in with the ladies  for Friday Project Uninterrupted.  I have finished hand stitching the binding down on my 3 yard quilt and some new hand stitching will be needed. So I thought I would stitch on the binding on the one I finished quilting in April.

Now I have done this step many times over the years, so sometimes I get lazy and guess how many strips I need to bind a project. Today was one of those days and I missed it by this much.

As you can see it looks like I cut a bit off, which is exactly what I did. I cut a piece off for the label, as I  couldn't find a piece in the scrap box suitable.

So in the end I had to cut another strip to make up the shortfall to complete it. 

So now I have some more hand stitching for the evenings. Then I will be able to cross another project off my list.

Until Next Time

Keep Stitching
