Friday Night Sew-In!!!!

It's Friday night and time for the great Sew-In.  I'm still deciding what to work on. 
Here are some of my options:

I have these 2 Christmas quilts--  I need to come up with something for backings-- meaning deciding if I want a pieced backing or just one piece of fabric.  I do like a backing with some of the fabric from the front used in large blocks on the back.  Then it needs to be "sandwiched " and quilted.



Next Option is my Hawaiian quilt.  This also needs to be sandwiched and quilted.


And then there is my scallop quilt-  My own design---This was fun. Needed to be made wider-- (after of course I have quilted it)-- I have already added 2 more rows of scallops---So I have to take the basting pins out-cut the edges and add a pretty binding.


My rocker needs a cushion.  I have this nice corduroy fabric.


My taffeta quilt.  The purple/blue taffeta is the front and the pretty flowered cotton, is the back.  It needs to be quilted.  I can see how I want to free motion quilt this in my head.  Big yellow daisy like flowers around the quilt.  However my ability does not come up to my vision.  I have been practicing but I still need more work.


And then there is my bucket of monkeys.  19 sock monkeys in various states of creation!!


 See my dilemma?  Well, I better decide- get things straightened  up and start Friday Night Sew-In!!!
