OMG August Finish

 I  completed the center medallion of my Vintage Rouge Quilt.  Stay tuned for my September Goal.

Catching Up

Where did the month go??????  For the first time in two years, we had all of our kids, grandkids, spouses and sweeties together.  It was noisy, chaotic and wonderful.  And then I went to Virginia to help out with child care.  I certainly felt my age trying to keep up with a 14 month old, 4 year old and 6 year old.  

Needless to say not much knitting or quilting was accomplished.  But I did manage to complete two projects.

The good news is I haven't purchased any yarn since the last time I made a stash report.

Stash Report and Weekly Plan

 My last weekly stash report was back in May.  I am not sure where the time went.  But I have been making slow and steady progress on my projects.  So I think I will summarize what I have done for the first seven months.

KNITTING

My knitting obsession this year has been hats.  I have been having so much fun with them that I am hosting a Hat knit along (KAL) via Zoom for my LYS.  Our first hat was Sunflower Dreams Hat.   

I still need a photo of the finished project.  Last night I completed the sixth and final hat of the series which will be our project for November.

Caiseal Hat

 

Now that I have found Hats for Sailors, I know what I can do with them.  So far this year I have knitted 18 hats.  And 10 of those hats I will be able to send out to Hats for Sailors.  

Yarn In YTD:  11,083 yards

Yarn Out YTD:  7105 yards

SEWING/QUILTING

I was able to get back to my sewing room a few days this week and managed to finish assembling two quilt tops.  Hopefully I will get one of the tops basted this week so I can start quilting.  

This week's plan:

Crochet 7 stripes (21 rows)  on Ripple Afghan.

Cast on Jason's Cashmere Hat

Baste Euro Swap Quilt Top

OMG August

 Now that the petals to the Medallion Block are stitched together, this month I will attach it to the background and add the center circle.

I am going to link up with Elm Street Quilts.
