20th, 21st, and 22nd finish for 2021 and 1st finish for 2022

I am running behind already! I couldn't get my laptop to work with the hotspot on my phone so no posting over the holidays so now it is time to catch up. I got the two extra lavender quilts and the extra dark green quilt finished while I was home for 10 days. These will just go in my stash of baby quilts.

I also got the third tie pillow made out of what ties were left.

I spent a couple days cleaning house and just getting stuff back where it belonged. The glassmen came and installed a mirror and swinging shower panel in my bathroom.  Looks like I will finally get this bathroom done this year!  I still need to finish some grouting, hang the doors on the vanity, finish up some trim, hang the toilet paper holder and towel bar, repair the floor grout, reinstall the sconces, and install the threshold and then it will be done! 

Since we were having 50+ degree days, I washed the car twice, vacuumed it, and waxed it. I still need to clean the windows and spray protectant on the plastic around the wheel wells, but the car is a lot cleaner than it was! I counted up my empty spools and ended up with 65 for the year.

I want to get all the 9 patch blocks made that I have started out of all that flannel I bought last year so while my friend was here for a couple days to sew, I worked on those. I got 87 blocks sewn together

Here are the piles of pieces waiting to be sewn into blocks

Here are strips sewn together that need pressed then sub cut for blocks

and here are the strips that need sewn together, then pressed, then cut for 9 patch blocks.

I had a stack of solid colored flannel strips left; I will have to figure out what to do with those later. Next I will attack the pastel flannel I have left and get whatever is left made into 9 patch blocks. I don't have nearly as much of the pastel flannels thank goodness!  LOL!! I also have a stack of plaid flannel strips to sew together that I set aside because they are mostly red and I want to make myself a red flannel quilt. When I have time I plan on making a couple extra adult sized flannel quilts to have on hand to give to someone when they are hit with a health issue. I did receive a box of Harley t-shirts to add to what I already have for the Harley t-shirt quilt I make every year for that charity poker run.

I also was the lucky recipient of one of Vicki's fabulous postcards! I will display it at the top of my design wall to enjoy all year along beside the other ones I have received over the years.

Here is my first finish for 2022. This is for a nephew and his wife who are expecting their first baby this month. It is already at the post office already to head to Texas.

Tomorrow I will report on my 2021 UFO list, what will be my 2022 UFO list, 2022 to-do list, and goals for 2022.
