Finish-A-Long Q3 - Aims and expectations

she can quilt
We are moving onto the third quarter of the Finish-A-Long. So what am I going to aim to get done this quarter?

 Well I guess I need to put down my existing finish failures…

 1. Echo Quilt
An old favourite I am ashamed to say!!!

2. My Union Jack quilt needs some TLC. I think that I need to get this one finished as it too has been hanging around for a long time now.

3. My hipBee quilt. This deserves some time and attention as my fellow hipBees have done their work on it for me.

4. My gorgeous leaf quilt that my Bee a Brit Stingy bees worked on for me. This is a bit of a cheeky one as I am sure that it will be the first finished from this list. I am hoping that it will be at the Fat Quarterly Retreat with me in 2 weeks time. Yikes… better get going on this one.
My gorgeous Orla Kiely inspired leaf quilt.
That is my list complete. I have a sneaky feeling that I won't get all these quilts done, but I am going to give it my best!

    Di you have been so productive recently that I think you will be able to knock these beauties off your list in no time! They are all lovely but that Bee stems quilt is very special indeed.

    I love the leaf quilt and can't wait to see the final product, but I think the one I'm most interested in is the Echo quilt. I love the way you played with right angles and parallel lines, and the prints really shine both independently and in harmony with each other.

    Do you know the online crafting community Kollabora? Some of us have recently gotten into quilting and would love to see your work over there as inspiration to the others!
