So my goal this summer was to make 10 quilts and read 10 books in 9 weeks. I have a feeling that was a little over ambitious...but I came close (with the quilts anyways). Unfortunately, I selected to leave all my bigger, larger quilting projects for the summer (and books that were equally as lenghtly!).
So I ended up making 9 quilts in 9 weeks (not bad me thinks!) but I only read 5 books (could have done better there...maybe next summer I should learn how to read and quilt at the same time!).
My 9th quilt project was not really a quilt at all but a set of placemats. I bought this fabric awhile ago and made one and hated it, got frustrated and threw it in a box never to be seen again. But I wanted to practice some of my different quilting patterns so I got the box out and made 10 placemats. If I do say so myself, I think they turned out pretty well!
