July Finishes and August Goals

July was a very productive month for me! I finished 4 veterans quilts of my own.
​

And quilted 8 for my club members!
​

I had a fun ice dyeing day.
​

I made 6 fabric postcards for birthday and get well wishes as my first Cricut projects.
​

Then my young friend Ella came to visit and we learned a lot about the Cricut and made a blanket, all in 3 days!
​

Even with all of that done, the theme of the month was potholders! I made 50 so far and have cut out 13 more. Three have been gifted and I'll take some on vacation to gift to our hosts. The rest will be for Christmas.

My YTD stats:
Quilts - 2
Veterans quilts made - 8
Veterans quilts quilted - 45
Fabric Postcards - 21
Pet Beds - 9
​​Quilted for others - 2
​Crochet blankets - 2
​​Crochet shawls - 1
​​Crochet/loom knit hats and scarves - 5
Placemats and Table Runners - 21
​Potholders - 50
​Dyed shirts and towels - 11
​Other Donated items - 102
​Garments (sewn and cochet) - 1
​Balls of yarn used or gifted - 25

We will be on vacation most of August and my sewing project will be the farm quilt that I cut out in June. Before we leave I want to quilt 2 veterans quilts and finish the last 13 potholders. I also will probably do a lot of crochet in August. Maybe I can finish the 2 donation blankets and a couple of hats.
