Whew! It's been a busy couple of weeks!
My sweet husband and I celebrated our 16th anniversary!
I joined the UFO Club (quilting, not aliens 👽...LOL) at my local quilt shop...my first in-person quilting community!
I had 2 fun filled days with my bestie, one with just our babies and the other with all the kids.
A stomach bug hit the family o.o
My 3rd little started softball. I was TERRIBLE at softball, like seriously laughable, so I hope she really enjoys it and shows me up 🤣
AND I finished the t-shirt quilt top I've been working on (I should be finished with it completely in the next day or so) and made a fun spring pillow cover 💜
I'm thrilled to have this quilt nearly finished. I had planned on having it done last weekend, but that nasty stomach bug had different plans for us...yuck!
I really like the colors in this one. The reds and yellow pop so nicely with all the black and grey!
I'll have a full post coming up on the UFO Club, but the goal is to motivate us to complete unfinished projects during the year. We submit a list of projects and each month a number is drawn and that's the project that's due to be finished by the next meeting. If it's not done, you pay $5, but if it's done, you bring it and show it off and everyone oooh's and ahhh's. It's good fun, then at the end of the year a party is thrown with the money gathered.
So, for my first finished UFO, I made this spring pillow case. I've been slowly working on making cases for my sofa cushions. You know that ones that automatically come with the sofas? I've always disliked mine and am constantly turning them around where the pattern doesn't show...lol
I had a couple charm packs and solid fat quarters from years ago and decided they'd be perfect to make some fun spring covers. I'd finished 2 previously and here's the third!
I particularly love the pink and greens in these pillows. The winter brings me the sads, so these cheer my mood whenever I see them.
I've Linked up today with...TGIFF and Can I Get a Whoop Whoop?. Head on over and see what other lovelies have been finished up this week!
Congratulations on the finish. The pillow covers are perfect to add a pop of color to your home.
ReplyDeleteYour pillow covers are beautiful! I've given up on pillows in my house, they just end up on the floor and no one (me included, lol) ever bothers to put them back in place. The UFO club sounds like the perfect combination of motivation and fun!
