Ponte Vecchio – BOM
One of my goals for the month of August was to get caught up with this block of the month. We last received month 7 kit and I had not even started the blocks. I had prepped fabric for months 1-5 though. This past weekend, I decided it was time to work on these blocks to at least do a few months to not make it so bad when it came time to put the quilt together. Month 1 Blocks Month 2 Blocks Month 3 Blocks These are always fun to work on and they stretch my skills as a quilter sometimes. The only thing I do not like about Fig Tree BOM programs is sometimes there is not enough fabric if you starch (which I do)and you have to hunt down the fabric – which it is not necessarily a Fig Tree fabric.

August Goals
A new month is here and it is time to set our quilty goals for the month! I have a lot to do! But since I put it out there last month that I was going to work on those items, I did way more than I normally did for the month and I stuck to only my goals (mostly). Related Images:

July Goals – Revisited
As a reminder, my goals for July were the following: I also worked on a few other things: I will work on getting the last few things uploaded to the blog. I find sometimes I don’t do that timely and then it gets too late. I write out my ToDo List so that I have it in my sewing room to remind me of the things I want to work on. Related Images:

My Secret Garden
I am such a sucker for a block of the month. So much so that I am working on several at a time. This was one that recently ended. I am shocked that I got the flimsy completed relatively close to the end of the BOM program. I have several that I need to go back to and finish. I am usually not a big fan of the ‘eclectic’ layout as this one is. However, Fig Tree quilts always makes it interesting. Related Images:

2024 Designer Mystery
This cute quilt top finish is going to be bit challenging to quilt, but the rickrack really sets those rooftops off. This was such a fun quilt to make. I did the setting as intended. However, the only thing I did change was the side border fabrics. Because the print was directional, I did purchase enough to do “long borders”. Related Images:
