2021 Monthly Recap: July

July is coming to a smokey end thanks to a drought and Canadian wildfires, and I've spent most of the month on my computer, working on the Chalk Stars pattern release (Monday!) and tutorials to support it.  I've also biked over 250 miles!  Because of all that, I didn't spent very much time piecing quilts, but I did quilt two of them and bind four (the two I quilted, plus two that were finished last month).  What a successful, fun month!

Quilt Progress (4 WIPs touched)
Summer Sampler 2019 - Are you surprised I came back to this?  I am!  But when inspiration strikes, you go with it!  This block comes from a pillow pattern in the latest issue of Make Modern magazine (affiliate link), reduced down to match the size of the other quilt blocks.  As soon as I saw it I knew I needed to make it!


Summer Scrap - Halfway done!  September still counts as summer, right?  Either way, I'm enjoying this so much that bleeding over into fall doesn't bother me at all!


Blocks made for both my memory scrap quilt and leaders and enders quilt.

Miscellaneous Accomplishments
I wrote two tutorials this month in advance of my Chalk Stars pattern release:
