Goodness! I haven't posted since May! What a slug a bed I've been. But I have been quilting. You may notice that finishes were several months apart. I care give my Mom two days a week and that really cuts into my time, especially with the drive I have to make getting there. I'm not a fan of freeway driving. Plus I fell twice and that cut into quilting time as I had to convalesce, but all is better now as I work on my balance. So here's a recap of the quilts I've made during 2024:
First off - I bound 3 flimsies that I finished in December 2023
That first one I didn't get a photo of it bound, but it was bound and given to St. Anne's. The second one was my SAHRR for 2023, and the third was another for St. Anne's.
I had so many leftover triangles I put together this miniature in January. Measures 16 1/2" square.
Then in March, I tested a pattern for Jen of Faith and Fabric designs. She had a pattern for a complete rosary (beautiful!), but I didn't have time, so I made a rosary circlet (one decade of a rosary).
Then in June I finished off an orphan block quilt for St. Anne's. Measured 36 1/2" square.
Found again in August, and finally finished this 2023 flimsy. Made with scrap blocks and blocks of an accent fabric. Again measures 36 1/2" for St. Anne's.
I made this table runner as a housewarming gift for a friend. These were orphan blocks. She liked it and had a perfect spot for it in her living room.

In October, I made a Baby Star Quilt from a pattern by Caroline of Sew Can She . The pattern was free the day she posted it. It was a fun one to make for St. Anne's.
In November, I put together a Seuss quilt made from some leftover fabric from another quilter's project for St. Anne's. The quilt was inspired by a Pat Sloan quilt for P & B Textiles called The Garden of Brambleberry Farm. Thank you, Pat.
December found me finishing/near finishing two WIPS! One a completed quilt and the other a flimsy. The finished quilt was an orphan and scrap blocks quilt I put together. I was going to give it to St. Anne's, but I liked some of my orphan blocks so much that I decided to keep it for myself. The second quilt which is the flimsy was a project I picked up at our Guild's free table that someone decided not to finish. There were 8 Stack n Whack blocks already made and some extra material. Unfortunately, the blocks were not the 9" they were suppose to be. Here's one before I rescued it.
I took them all apart and resewed them back together with scant quarter inch seams and then they matched. I made a 12" center block and added sashing to the blocks. Measures 37 1/2" square. Now to quilt it.
I look forward to seeing your end of the year reviews. Drop me a comment and I'll go by and see yours. Blessings,
