My Game Plan for Planview

I finished my Quilt top for The Planview Quilt Along at Quilting JetGirl. It was a windy day, as we are having quite frequently, but I was able to get a few photos with my quilt top laying in the yard.

I sewed the Twin Size quilt which is a very nice size - approximately 80" x 96".  I should be able to use this on my camper bed when it is quilted.  At first, I was not happy with the darker navy blues that I used in the corners, but it has grown on me. I wanted to use mostly fabrics that I already had in my house, which I am happy that I did. 

 I am linking my quilt top to the Planview completed linkup. Many thanks to Quilting JetGirl for this annual Quilt along. I like how this quilt along is spread out over several months so I can work on it when I have some extra time. 

A Starry Dish-drying mat

 I finished the Flying Geese challenge in time for the Final Challenge of Project Quilting. Unfortunately, I was unable to participate in #4 and #5. However, I did complete challenges 1, 2, 3 and 6 this year.  Here is my completed Dish Drying mat with 8 flying geese.  The challenge was to incorporate at least 5 flying geese into your project. The big star and the little star both have 4 flying geese each.

I used some Bonnie and Camille scraps I've had since completing a quilt a few years ago. I used this Moda toweling for the backing.  

Many thanks to Kim at Persimon Dreams for hosting these challenges each year! I have gotten a few things completed during the weeks of the challenges.

Kitchen Concoction complete.

 I have made many of these Dish-drying mats through the past 5 years or so. The theme for The 3rd challenge at Project Quilting is Kitchen Influence. I decided to make another dish-drying mat. It really can be just used as a table mat. 

I used Moda toweling on the back to be a little absorbent.  I ordered a variety of yardage of Moda toweling from an online quilt shop to use for the backs of my mats. 

This really can just be used as a table mat, of course. My orchids are in bloom.

I have 3 orchids (and 1 cat). This orchid below needs repotted, but I will wait until the blooms drop to do that. You can see, a lot of the roots are all hanging outside of the pot.

Finished another challenge of making a quilt within 1 week. I am posting to Challenge 13.3.

Come to the church in the wildwood.

 Sewed a quick mug rug for the 2nd Challenge at Persimon Dreams Blog. The Challenge is entitled "In Silhouette". I decided to sew this "Church" mug rug. Raw-edge applique can sometimes be done quickly. I needed to finish quickly since I will not be home later on in the week. I did try to make the shapes as a silhouette.

Church mug from childhood church that I attended each week.

Will be able to have some tea using my church mug rug and church mug.

Challenge #2 is finished in time.

Drawstring bag delivered in the snow.

The 13th season of Project Quilting at Persimon Dreams Blog is starting off the New Year of 2022. Here is my first project for All the Colors Challenge:

I used Jeni Baker's pattern at In Color Order. This is a fairly good-sized drawstring bag that I could use for my hair dryer and curling iron, possibly. Or who knows whatever else. I'm trying to use up some older fabric that I've had for years.  Enjoying our first snow for 2022.

First Challenge completed. Linking up to: Challenge 13.1
