To-Do for the week of Sept 20th-Sept 26th:

- Refine my fabric pull for my mini rainbow block. √Done
- Do a little more Sashiko stitching. √Done
To-Do #1
I did finish my niece’s place mats. Below is a pic with some pretty late-season cosmos flowers after I washed and air-dried the place mats. They did not shrink too much. They were 12.5″ x 18.5″ prior to being laundered and lost about 1/4″ with both width and length.
And another shot where I tried to be a little artsy with some strewn cosmos 🙂
In my September 2022 One Monthly Goal Finish post, I shared several pre-wash photos that I took on our robin blue stained picnic table. Here is one pic from that post that shows the two different fabrics from Sharon Holland’s Willow Collection that I used for the backs.
To-Do #2
Here are the fabrics I’ve decided to use for my Mini Series Rainbow. I hope to start working on it in the next couple weeks.
To-Do #3
And here is the fourth Sashiko square I’ve stitched that I will make into coasters for a Christmas gift this year.
To-Do for the week of Sept 27th-Oct 4th:
- Bind my Break of Day quilt that arrived in the mail yesterday from Sew Shabby Quilting.
- Write my Oct 2022 One Monthly Goal post.
- Do a little more Sashiko stitching.
Linking up to Texas Quilt Gal: To-Do Tuesday.

The placemats look wonderful after their first wash, and the late season cosmos compliment them beautifully, too! Enjoy getting to finish your Break of Day quilt this week; I find binding one of the most satisfying steps of quilting and hope you enjoy those final moments in creating the quilt.
