QuiltCon 2020

I'm going to Quiltcon 2020 in Austin, Tx

QuiltCon 2020 – Austin, TX here I come.1 My adrenaline was pumping as I registered for classes as quickly as my fingers would type on the keyboard!2 Here’s my happy dance for being able to register for all the classes I wanted this morning!3

Build out of three quotes: This would have been the perfect caption

Did I finish as much as I had hoped for. Definitely not but that was to be expected. I always overestimate what I can get accomplished, especially when I count in vacation time :)

But I am on a good track and very happy about it. See for yourself:

Will keep you up to date :)

My Goal for 2019 is to get my WIP list down to 3-6 projects.

I am still not managing two finishes a month but I am getting the number down! This quarter I finished four and added “only” two. So far from originally 15 down to 12. Yeahh!

No. (1) Ocean Waves, (3) Whirly Girl are relatively close to a finish. And (10) the wallet is soooo long overdue. Also I think (11) the bag will be a not too complicated project. So I am hoping for lots of finishes in Q3. With three in Q1 and four Q2 it should be five now, right?

Best wishes

    There are so many lovely projects on your list (Wanta Fanta caught my eye so I’m hoping you might work on that one!) – good luck with them all!
