Another Finish on Friday

My first landscape.  My friend, Bette, invited me to work along with her as she worked through a landscape quilt book.  She's such a good teacher!  Here is my landscape.  I love it!  It measures about 14 by 20" I need to add a hanging sleeve and then I'll hang it somewhere in the house where I can see it every day.

Will have to do another one - maybe Tuscany - will help me dream of one of the places I'd like to visit.

I'm linking over at Crazy Mom's Finish it Up Friday.  Lots of eye candy there.

Hexie Friday 11/1/13

It's November!  Wow, time is flying!!  I tried something new this past week.  I set my goal of one hexie a day, and it actually worked.  Here's the start of my 10th flower:

I may have to buy some more papers.  The ones I've used several times are getting a bit distorted and flimsy.  How often have you used them before you tossed them?  I'm curious.

How's your hexie project going?  Would love to see it.  All eye candy accepted - even ones you've finished.  All new to Billie and me.  Linky below.

Getting it Done in October

I knew my October was going to be way busy, so I set as goals just starting on my LE part 3 and my working on the UFO.
Well I did it - just barely, LOL.  Here's my UFO from 2009 finally sandwiched and basted.  So I did start toward a finish.  I've decided to make this into a coverlet as the front is kind of heavy and I had this great ducky flannel for the back.  Figured two flannels should be warm enough for a 40 x 44 panel.  Now I just have to figure out how to quilt it. 



The other project of my two for this month is my Love Entwined.  After much looking at colors and hemming and hawing I decided on this combo:

It's not set in stone (or actually I should say fused down) yet.  I tried lighter combos and even four different fabrics in the circle, but kept coming back to this one.  But it's a start!

How did you do this month?  I'm setting small goals again as I have more company coming in November plus a birthday, Thanksgiving, and then an anniversary. So my goals for November will be to continue with the two above projects and hope to get closer to done with them.
