I might be in trouble

What i might be in trouble for?  I just received the April issue of American Patchwork & Quilting magazine.  I found a couple of projects in there that I liked so they went on my to do list.  Not at the top but still they made it to the to do list.

I might not make this as designed but I did like how it showed off the applique parts to it.  The quarter squares might turn into Half Square Triangles too.  On the other hand I might ask somebody else to do the piecing part and I'll do the applique part.  Who knows.  I will probably change my mind 4 to 6 times before I get to work on it.  LOL.



This next one will be done sooner or at least a block of it will be done sooner since it is also a tutorial on how to do back basting.  I've wanted to learn how to do that method so this is a good time to do it.



I also received the April/May Quilters Newsletter magazine and found a couple of things in there that I liked.  This next one I like because of the border.  I doubt that I will make it as listed because I'm not fond of the baskets (they are a pain to do) but I will keep the picture so that it will remind me of some possibilities for borders.



Then, of course, there is this next one.  I love this but need to learn how to do some of the applique better in order to get it right..  This one will definitely be made hopefully in 2012 but if not it will go on the to do list for 2013.



Another goodie I received in the mail today was this book.  I don't know if I will ever make anything in it since i do not like to do piecing but I do like the background and information about the era.  If nothing else it will stay with me for informational reading.


Doesn't that all sound like a lot of things that can get me in trouble?

I am proud of myself.  I have gone through some of the patterns that I had printed out and will be getting rid of them.  They might go to friends but I'm not sure yet.

Have a great day everybody.  Time for me to switch thinking from crafting to gaming.  I have my face to face gaming group tonight.

I like the sounds of your to-do list. I think you will have a lot of company when you get into trouble. Can't wait to see your version of these projects. Just know they will be spectacular.

Thanks everybody. It will be a long time before I will have anything to show you. The first one will be using the pink flowers on mom's mini wall hanging.

What to work on Next

    I finished the owl and it will be sent off to my friend Susan as soon as I get my stamps.  I had forgotten to get some for the season so...
