I did finish my August Island Batik Project using Deb Tucker’s Studio 180 ruler “Four Patch Square Up.” You can read more about it HERE.
Design Wall
Piecing:
The borders are still not on this quilt.
Quilting:
The Carpenter’s Wheel (Star) is sandwiched … and the thread is chosen and it is sitting at the machine … but not a stitch of quilting has happened!

TO DO
I’m linking up to Roseanne & Sue’s “TO DO” Tuesday. Their blog is “Home Sewn by Us.”
Last weeks list:
I’m not surprised that I didn’t get #1 and #2 done … but I did get #3, 4 & 5 done! And Roseanne always quotes Gladys Taber: “Contentment is a list with half of it crossed off.” I’m content!
- Sandwich & Quilt Carpenter’s Wheel ½ done sandwiched but not quilted.
- Add borders to Bouquet Murder Mystery not done
- Work on IB Sept project √ done (it’s a secret … and I LOVE it!)
- Spend at least 30 minutes this week CLEANING/ TIDYING my sewing room. √ done
- Photo shoot and blog about IB August project √ done
This weeks list:
- Start Quilting Carpenter’s Wheel
- Add borders to Bouquet Murder Mystery
Hopefully soon there will be a UFO finish …
One who sleeps under a quilt is covered by LOVE!
Happy Quilting!

Quilting Gail 
A good week for progress even if all the to do’s weren’t checked off. It’s amazing how many finishes you’ve had this year. You’ve done so well at finishing most everything you’ve started this year and that’s an impressive number of projects!

Thanks, Kathy!
I guess when a lot of time each day is spent quilting, many things get done!

I’ve always like Carpenter’s Star quilts. One of theses days I’ll have to make one.
