My favorite local quilt shop, Kelly Ann's Quilting, is sponsoring a PHD 6 Project Program, from the blog:
"You choose six projects that you want to finish. It can be any
project, at any stage – number them 1 to 6. Send me an email (kelly@kellyannsquilting.com),
bring your list into the shop or post the details on the Kelly
Ann’s Facebook page with PhD in the subject line, and give me your
project
list, numbered and with the name of the projects. I’ll pick a number on
the 15th day of the month and post it to my blog and Facebook that will
be the
project you work on for the month. The objective is to get you to finish
some
of your projects, but if you don’t finish during the month just set it
aside
and start working on the next project when a new number is published.
The
program will begin January 15th."
On January 15, we learned we needed to complet our project number 6.
My #6 is a set of 2 1/2 x 5 1/2 bricks I was originally going to do a brick wall quilt with, but didn't have enough and decided to do a smaller wall hanging with black to show it off. I reworked my original plan a bit, using an English garden for inspiration. I cannot count it done yet, because it is not yet finished. It needs to be quilted and bound by Feb 15th!!
I am using this program to force myself to finish a couple of projects languishing for one reason or another, and to practice some machine quilting.
Here's the top for project #6:
Now I'm off to YouTube for tutorials on making a quilt sandwich!
Anyone know of a good one?
