I boggles my mind that we are already in the middle of September. Mostly because I have done
nothing to complete my monthly goal--too many distractions!

My set-in seams for the latest Patches of Blue quilt along went together great and I'm really happy and relieved it wasn't too much of struggle! |

This is my latest distraction--it's been on my bucket list for ages and when I came across the large print fabric in my stash, I just had to make at least one six inch house--so cute! I've seen lots of the red French General versions, but, you know--I had to do blue! |

I posted this quilt on Instagram, but I don't think I've written about it here yet. This was my second finished quilt in August, in an attempt to use up my LeMoyne Stars. |

I had a big chunk of the Three Sisters fabric in my stash--enough for the entire back. I try to remember to stock up on large or interesting prints when I find a good sale. |

Again, I used the Easy Peasy Baptist Fan panto--love the texture. |

As I said on Instagram, this isn't staying on the sofa until Willow is done with her chewing stage--which I hope will happen soon and I worry that will never happen--lol! |

I've meant to replace my Saw Tooth Cats quilt on the wall for years. I'm not even sure how long it's been hanging there--more than a decade for sure. |

And you can see a peek of my Pat Sloan applique quilt in the adjacent hallway. |

This was such a fun project from years ago. A lot of it is changed up to make it my own. Pat said this pattern was her version of a Baltimore album quilt. |

I think I was in my "dotty" phase then and I could never use too many dotted fabrics. |

I added lots of extra birds, bees and butterflies just for fun. |

I had my heart set on using a piece of brown floral I'd had for the border, but, of course, I didn't have quite enough. This may have been the first time I used my "make-do" powers and subbed a closely matched brown to finish up the border. That looked a little odd, so I added some applique flowers to tie in with the floral print. And more dots--haha! |

I remembered being worried about being called out for doing this at the time. Now I love how it turned out--I think it was meant to be. |

No time for napping--I've got to get to work on my September goal!!! |
