Incentive

Im joining in in the FAL run this year by Katy of The Littlest Thistle.  I'm not sure whether this is a good thing or not, as I joined in the first quarter the last two years, only to fail dismally at each attempt. However, I'm aiming for third time lucky. I need an incentive to finish some WIP's, I work better under pressure and this year I can feel it in my waters. The year has started with a much more positive sewing vibe, and with my mojo still intact, I think I can achieve this very short list.


1. Starflowers.
The colours aren't correct in this photo, it's looking a little overexposed.
It needs another small border, then I just need to choose fabric for the final border, and make a backing, baste, quilt and bind, easy peasy, ha!

2. Table runner/wall hanging

I need to add a few more rows, and finish adding the half hexies along the edges. Then it should be a breeze to make a backing, baste, quilt and bind it.

3. Dresdens

Again, a couple more borders to finish the top. I've been procrastinating for ages and I just need to suck it up and do it. 


Although it's only three projects, it still involves three unfinished tops. I need to get my A into G if I can finish these by the end of March.

  14. Beautiful projects! Looks like you've got a lot done on each, so finishing by March shouldn't be doable. Good luck!
