A Snails Pace

I finally finished my flannel rag quilt for our new 3 horse LQ trailer. I got it washed and dried yesterday so that once we get the trailer cleaned today and the mattress put in it, I can make the bed and it'll start to look like home! Will post pics of the trailer later. But below is a pic of the finished quilt before washing.

It's not perfect but hubby is very happy with it and that is all that counts in my book!

Now I can go about cleaning my sewing studio because the flannel lint is EVERYWHERE! Anyone know how to keep flannel from being so linty other than washing it first?

My next step should be to cut up fabric and get it tucked away in my scrap users system.

I have just a little bit of fabric to go thru as you can see. I think though I will work on it a little at a time. I'm going to participate in a quilt challenge and that should help me get some of it taken care of. Doing Celtic Solstice helped quite a bit. I've also been pulling blues and neutrals for my Blue Ridge Beauty quilt from Bonnie Hunter's book Adventures with Leaders and Enders. This has been my leader/ Ender project while doing the flannel quilt as well as Celtic Solstice. 

I need to make a quick baby quilt for a young lady at church. She had a baby girl a few weeks ago, has no one for help or support so I want to be of encouragement to her. It will be different colors of pink and black. I'm going to do it in the Dancing Nine Patch pattern. This will also help get rid of a little bit more from those containers!

Then Blue Ridge Beauty will be my main project while I have the challenge project as my leader/Ender.

Hope your week has gone well! Have a totally awesome weekend!
