My Summer Sewing List - Update

Here's a run-down on how I did with my sewing list this summer. I meant to get this together about a month ago. Here we are already in October, and I'm putting together a fall/winter list in my head. Maybe I'll share it with you soon.

~quilts for my nieces - one purple and one pink - the quilts not my nieces ☺

~a package of homemade gifts for my sister’s family in Wyoming  - so, so happy with these gifts - a magnetic tile for my brother-in-law, a bag for my sister, an ipod case for my oldest nephew, a prayer journal for my oldest niece, a "5 stones" game for another niece, a messenger bag for my middle nephew and clothes for her doll for the youngest niece in that family.

~finish the quilt I have started for my oldest son - I didn't get it finished, but I did get all three layers basted together and started the quilting. I love hand quilting so I'm enjoying this process.

~start a quilt for my second son - didn't get this done

 

~a jumper for my youngest daughter for Canada Day with some fun fabric I bought about a month ago - she was happy with this :)

 

 

~a skirt for my middle daughter - turned out great. I used this technique for the edge.

 

~a gift for a friend who is due with a baby in June - I made two - a hat and a diaper pouch



the cute recipient

~a skirt or two for my oldest daughter - only did one

~a table runner for my dining room table
 

~something for my mom for Mother’s Day and my dad for Father’s Day - sadly this was another project that didn't happen

~a StoryBook for my brother-in-law who is graduating from the Army Reserves - The pictures are all formatted I just have to do the journaling and then order it.

~boxers for my two little boys

~a clothespin bag - This didn't get done either.

 

~extras - a skirt for my youngest daughter

 

 

         - a mei tai carrier - This was a spur-of-the-moment decision, but I'm so glad I made this. I use it almost every day. I like to use it for carrying our baby on my back for walks; my daughter prefers to use it on the front with her toddler brother.

 

 

So looking at this list I feel like it was a very productive summer. Were you able to cross any goals off your list this summer?
