I had restarted this blog to keep track of UFOs, particularly my quilts, I've been working on small projects lately. It seems as if I've been telling myself, "I'll work on a quilt after this small project." Currently, I would like to make two more tote bags and finish up on some autumn-themed pillows I had started two years ago. I didn't want to start any more small, long-term projects that would interrupt my goal. But I am very weak.
On August 31, Laundry Basket Quilts had introduced a new sewing challenge: Little Basket Contest. The challenge is to make the baskets that are represented in their Little Basket quilt pattern. For every six baskets made, you will receive 1 entry to their drawing, on November 15.
I told myself I really didn't need to participate. I had more important projects to work on. The baskets are pretty small and so cute, I had to make just one. Then, it was two. Next thing I knew, I had 6 made! I emailed my entry, so at least I had one entry to their contest.
Before I knew it, I was going through my Laundry Basket Quilts fat quarters (from their Fabric Club) to make more.
My little baskets:
As I said, I am so weak. They are easy to make, so I had to make more! I think I should be okay, if I just keep using the fabrics that I have in my stash.
Till next time,
