Hi!
Another new month arrive. Really??? Already? Yes. That is often the reaction isn’t?
I didn’t blog much last month as I barely have time for photographing, editing and blogging and I was mostly just keeping up with life. I did some sewing, but didn’t have time to update much.
So, this recap will have some new stuff I haven’t shown yet here in the blog that I did in July and also the links back to projects that was blogged already.
I haven’t blogged about me being stuffed up with this quilt most of my nights in July. This scrappy trip along quilt top was previously blogged here.
It is finally finished in quilting and yet to be bound! I can’t believe I have not yet get it bound after a week of it being done with the quilting. I guess I grew quite sick having this quilt on my machine. So, taking a break and being apart with it for a while isn’t that bad.
I’ll get it bound soon and do a full blogpost on it. Then you can see the whole quilt. I hope it will soon be sunny so that I can take it outdoor for a photo session.
In July, I also did some little sewing projects like making bags and pouches during those nights that I don’t feel like quilting. And since my sister is here, I have been teaching her to do a lot of small projects too.

Other than that, I managed to keep up with my Lucky Star BOM blogged here. And though currently I am left behind in the Zakka 2.0 SAL, I did manage to make the apron and the diamond placemat blogged here this July.
So enough with July, what is my plan for August?
These are on top of the plan:
1) My mum’s quilt to be quilted and done by the end of this month! . It’s her birthday this month!
 |
| HST quilt, pattern by Jeni Baker In color Order |
2) My MIL quilt : to be quilted and bound too!
That’s it. I am being rational. I think that will pretty much takes up all my August time. If I start on anything else, I doubt that I’ll get this two quilts done!
Now let see what you are up to… Lets visit others on AUGUST Fresh Sewing Day and A lovely Year of Finishes.
XOXO

Great projects Amira. I love the quilting design you used on your big scrappy quilt and I look forward to seeing the full reveal. I haven’t been keeping up with blogs much lately, being on holidays, so I’m behind with everyone! How is your father-in-law doing?

Can’t wait to see the full Scrappy Trip when it has been bound and gets to come outside for pictures. I love the puffy cloud quilting you did on it! And those bags are sweet! Great label, too. Your mom and MIL are blessed to have you – great looking quilts, Amira!

Wow, your scrappy trip along looks brilliant, love all the bright colours. And your tote is awesome – I am just getting into bag making, and I suspect it will be a new addiction.

Your projects look great. Impressed with your Scrappy Trip Along quilt -one on my “To do” list as well. I even have some strips cut ready for it but somehow other projects come along and get in the way.
