August Accomplishments

August was another successful month for me. I didn't get a goal set for OMG, so I worked on things for the fair. 
I made a wool bag for the SD Sheepgrowers Association meeting contest and then they will auction it off for scholarship money. 

I also finished my sample for my piecing basics and machine quilting class at The Sewing Center. It's part of a series of beginner classes we're doing. 

We had an UpCraft event at the Sewing Center in August, so I made this Supply Case 

It's made to hold my smaller rulers when I travel. 

I also made a couple Sweetpea Pods for the girls at work as Birthday presents. 

I'm staying caught up with the GE Designs Dangerous Block of the month. This is block 4. 

I also finished the camper quilts from the panel I had. I'm hanging these in our camper. 

I started and finished a star quilt for my co-worker for Christmas. He loves star quilts and wanted a neutral/brown one. This is a wall hanging. 

These are the more true to life colors of it. 

I finished four of the blocks for the Farm Girl Vintage sew along. 

As I was cleaning/taking everything off the walls in my sewing studio, I found a few more pieces I had sewn as leaders and enders for the Buckeye Beauty quilt. I ended up with 8 more blocks. Only 19 more to go and I have the HST's done for 16 of them! 

Last night I finished the two Farm Girl Vintage blocks that are "due" on Friday. I'm so glad I am caught up again.  

I also worked extremely hard piecing Goodnight Irene block pieces. I have those ready to sew into blocks. I am hoping to do it on my day off on Friday, but we'll see how far I get. I need to have the top done by Saturday the 10th.
