Week ending August 13, 2023

I decided that before I worked on another quilt,  that I needed to make some frankenbatting.  My batting scrap stockpile was getting a bit big. I made two battings and called that good enough for now.  

The new robotics came in for my longarm. They forgot to send me a power cord, so I have to wait a little longer before I can quilt anything. 

I finally got some photos of the beautiful fabrics Jaftex sent me to sew up for September.  The collection is called Midnight Rendezvous for Blank Quilting Company. 

I got a haircut! 

I made a new pouf for the kitties. I used the free pattern from Closet Core Patterns and used upholstery samples thst someone gave me.  It's stuffed with my fabric scraps and smaller stringy bits of batting that I save. 

I got this gorgeous crushed velvet from Minerva and think I'll make joggers. 

I picked the Harmony quilt pattern by Villa Rosa Designs for my Midnight Rendezvous fabrics. 

I bought a bunch of fabric from Jo-anns to use for quilts that I hope to make and auction next year. I was hoping to auction off or donate 6 quilts this year, but have only managed 3 so far. I plan to do one next month if I can get my $#!* together. 

This coming week I plan to focus on getting quilt pieces cut out for possibly three quilts. I have one in mind I want to auction next month that I need to get working on ASAP.
