Make Nine 2024 recap

Make Nine 2024 was a success! Here is a recap of my 6th year participating in this Challenge.

Make Nine 2024 recap.

In answer to my 2024 prompts, these projects were completed (from top left):

  • UFO: An improv quilt top from 18 - 19 years ago was finally quilted and bound. (finish #1)
  • Wild Card: the first of the Wild Card prompts was fulfilled with this quilt using Dashwood Studio’s Spellbound fabric collection. It was displayed at the booth at the H+H industry trade show this past May. (finish #4)
  • Mend/Upcycle: a new binding was given to this quilt I made in the 1990s. (finish #7)
  • Learn More in ’24: I learned how to make these triangle pouches this summer and made several of them for friends and associates. (finish #9)
  • On-line Challenge: I participated in the Winter of Care and Repair Challenge this year. Several mends, up-cycled or repurposed items, and using up yarn and fabric scraps. (finish #2)
  • Wild Card: the second Wild Card prompt was fulfilled with an improv quilt that was donated to the auction/fund-raiser for the John C. Campbell Folk School. Blocks were made by the students in my Intro to Improv Patchwork class. The top assembly, quilting and finishing was done by me. (finish #8)
  • Fun and Easy: Another yearly quilting project of mine is making kitty quilts. I make them throughout the year for friends with cats, neighbors with cats, for our own pack of kitties, and to support a local Cat Clinic and a local vet. A total of 10 kitty quilts were completed this year. (finish #5)

This is the completed worksheet for Make Nine 2024:
