Sunday Stitching Post #15

I spent this past week with my niece, much of it at the beach, so almost no sewing got done. (It was a great week though!) I managed to miss the deadline for posting my OMG finish for July. I did complete my goal several weeks ago which was to finish my bargello quilt. The UFO challenge project for July was my Guild Mystery Quilt which I got out, selected quilting thread for, and began quilting it. Not much progress, but some.

Quilting detail - Purple Bargello

My one-monthly-goal for this month is to finish my purple bargello. I finished quilting it last month and added the binding which now needs to be sewn to the back by hand. I plan to hang it in the front entry of my house so it will also need a hanging sleeve added. 

UFO Challenge: June 2016

The selected project for June in the #APQResolution UFO Challenge is #10 which means I need to work on my Chocolate Covered Cherries Bargello. At the beginning of June it was pieced and basted and I had begun machine quilting it. There is quite a bit more quilting to do, typically I quilt through the center of each bargello swoop and have only done about 6 of these. Border quilting also needs to be figured out and completed then binding and a label added to finish the quilt.
