To Do Tuesday 67

This To Do Tuesday 67 post is overdue – I haven’t posted with the TDT Linky party hosted by Texas Quilt Gal since the early part of November, and here we are on the last day! 

  • Prep backing for Coreopsis (getting done today)
  • Finish 2020 Monthly Color Challenge Quilt – not done
  • Catch up on my QAL with Emily (done)

While I’ve been ignoring most of that list, I’ve done some fun block tests for Sandra Healy Designs. If you didn’t see my Instagram post, here are the ones I can show you.

I’ve enjoyed testing these blocks, and it’s kind of put me in a holiday mood. So I’ve also been working on another Christmas project for the upcoming Virtual Christmas Cookie Exchange Blog Hop.

Virtual Cookie Exchange Blog Hop hosted by Just Let Me Quilt - piecefulthoughts.com

I actually have my project done, and now I need to take some photos and bake some goodies. I hope you make a note to spend some time reading the blogs in the Hop. I’m sure you’ll find some fun holiday inspiration and recipes! 

This week, I have a few things on my to do list: 

  • Finish tote bag 
  • Finish 2021 MCC quilt top
  • Pieces of the Santa Fe Trail quilt top
  • Bind 2020 MCC quilt

I’m pretty sure I won’t get all these done, but it’s good to have them on the list. 

Thanks for stopping by and reading my To Do Tuesday 67 post!

    I love your nativity blocks!!! I’m interested in seeing how you’re going to put them together and quilt them. I know I’ll have to wait, since it’s not on your to-do list…

    Beautiful Christmas blocks. Such a nice way to get into the holiday spirit. And your list will help you get back on track when you have time. The virtual cookie exchange sounds like fun and I’m looking forward to it.

    Lots of good stuff happening! I love Sandra’s new blocks. They are just perfect and would definitely put one in the holiday spirit. Can’t wait for the cookie hop – glad to be on the sidelines but looking forward to see what everyone is baking or making and quilting!

    Hi Wendy! I think November got away from us – it whipped by so quickly. I suspect that December will be a repeat. Those nativity blocks are so cool – I especially adore the three wisemen. That sweet little Wilbs tail on the keyboard makes me think he has been distracting you a wee bit. {{Hugs}} ~smile~ Roseanne

    Hi Wendy. Those are just the cutest test blocks. She does make some inspiring patterns. Love seeing Wilb’s tail. He’s helping you write this post and planning a great list! Good luck with it. Can’t wait to see your Blog Hop post. 😉

    I absolutely love these nativity blocks! Great job with the design, Sandra Healy. Great job with making the blocks, Wendy! Can’t wait to see them all put together.

    Love those test blocks! I see the pattern doesn’t have actual size templates, but I assume that’s not an issue.
    I need to bake my goodies and stage my photo for the cookie exchange post. Gee I guess we’ll have to each the photo shoot cookies. 😉
    Thank you for linking to To Do Tuesday!

    Well I’ve definitely missed most of those on IG I guess! They all do look great and I bet they did take some time. Anxious to see how they all come together. The Christmas star is just beautiful!
