August/September Accomplishments and October Goals

It's always interesting to do my personal progress review after vacation month I sort of lose track of anything for the month in Maine and then it seems to take me another month to get back into some sort of routine.
​

In August I got 2 veterans quilts quilted. In September I quilted 2 veterans quilts and one quilt for Mom. I finally have a few more veterans quilts ready for quilting plus a big quilt for my quilt club.

Honesetly, most of what I did in August and September was to work on the Fab Farm quilt. That one is ready for quilting as soon as I dye a quilt back for it.
​

I also did a lot of crochet while on vacation and even more since coming home. It's football season, so it's crochet season. I finished 1 baby blanket, 1 big blanket, 1 shawl and 5 hats. With that I used up 13 balls of yarn! At this rate I'll be allowed to buy yarn again in 2 years.
​

I also made lotion, soap, a couple of postcards, 6 tea towels and finished the 63 potholders.

I also hiked and kayaked a lot and that was great.
