Bonnie &#038; Camille Log Cabin Block Swap Again &#8211; I&#8217;ve completed and mailed my blocks, so I should be receiving my return shipment in mid-February. I&#8217;m hoping to get them in time to finish up a quilt by the end of March.<\/p>\n<p>2. Home Sweet Home Quilt &#8211; I saw this <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cupcakesndaisies.com\/search\/label\/Hometown%20USA\">Hometown USA Quilt<\/a> and decided I wanted to make something similar. I already had the Summerville kit for the center portion and the Stars &#038; Stripes pattern for the outer border. I&#8217;m going to add a plain border instead of the pinwheel blocks around the Summerville portion and then the outer border will be flags and square-in-square blocks. I have all the pieces cut, so I just need to start sewing.<\/p>\n<p>3. Summer Breeze Quilt &#8211; This one needs to be sent to my quilter. The top and backing are all done and waiting to go.<\/p>\n<p>4. Cozy Christmas Quilt &#8211; This one is also ready for quilting. Hope to have it out and back soon! &#8211; <span style=\"color:#ff0000;\">FINISHED &#8211; MARCH 28, 2017 &#8211; See post here &#8211;\u00a0<a style=\"color:#ff0000;\" href=\"http:\/\/quiltsbylaurel.com\/blog\/2017\/03\/31\/finished-cozy-christmas-quilt\/\">FINISHED!! &#8211; Cozy Christmas Quilt<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p>5. 2016 Temperature Quilt &#8211; I finally completed all my temperature observations for 2016 and got all my pieces cut. Now I can start sewing them together. Each block will have two rectangles &#8211; one for the day&#8217;s high temperature and one for the day&#8217;s low temperature. I will also have blocks for the name of each month and then a couple of fillers to get the right number for the size quilt I wanted. This one will be good for some mindless sewing when I don&#8217;t want to have to think about what I&#8217;m doing too much. <\/p>\n<p>6. Boo Swoon Quilt &#8211; I&#8217;m participating in the 2017 Swoon Along on Instagram and I decided to do a Swoon Sixteen with Cotton + Steel&#8217;s Boo line. All my pieces are cut, except for one fat quarter that I miscut, so I&#8217;m waiting for the replacement fabric to arrive and then I can start sewing this one too.<\/p>\n<p>This should be another fun and productive year! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The 2016 Finish-A-Long helped spur me to complete 18 projects, so I&#8217;m going to continue with it this year!
