2 finishes :-)

I am working through my WISP pile, and finally this beautiful quilt is done.
The log cabin strips finish 1/2” and the quilt / tablecloth is approximately 40” square.

Sometimes I am shaking my head over my own procrastination………..
I do not really enjoy having a lot of WISPs, but I do so enjoy finishes, so my goal is to reduce the WISP pile quite a lot :-)

One more thimble in Craft Olympic for me – this time for machine quilting

Some crochet has been going on too – this is a A3 size, for a preemie baby through Amandaprosjektet.
One more WISP done and out of the closet :-)

Craft Olympic thimble # 2 + a challenge to self

Finishes are good, finishes are fun – and I have a plan :-)

This little preemie blanket will hopefully warm a little one soon.
I do not do charity quilts for the time being, but a little crochet blanket is nice to do every now and then, and they are donated to preemie babies at hospitals around the country through Amanda-prosjektet.

It did not take that much time to make the blocks I needed, as I already had 8 blocks done.
Sewing in all the threads took some time though.

This little blanket is now officially out of the Ufo pile and I am claiming another thimble in the Craft Olympic :-)
Not to forget – I am digging out another WISP – work in slow progress.

…. and another one………..

First I have challenged myself – I need 1 WISP finish every 2 weeks through the rest of the year!
WISPs are like cold coffee to me – it tastes like coffee, but it is not as good as fresh coffee.
I think  you know what I mean?
It is fun to start something new, and taste changes too, so I better get the WISPs done, to make room for new projects and more fun :-)
By the way – I have challenged May Britt too, and if you need a nugde, do not hesitate to join in. No lists kept, just inspiring each others to keep the momentum through blogging about what we are working on :-)

I am a Craft Olympic Athlete!

Are you curious now?
Visit Houseelf on this post for more details.

I will be entering in the following diciplines:

English paper piecing
Crochet
Cross stitch
Machine quilting
and new to me, Punchneedle!

I  will focus on projects already here in the quilt corner, and I will hope to give each disipline more than one run :-)

I am maybe more of an autumn “cleaner”- finisher than a spring finisher……… it is something about Christmas and New Year coming up I think.
