There are two quilts that have to be finished by Drama Teen's high school graduation in May. The first is Geometry.

This one was on my first quarter list. All it needs is binding. I started trimming the quilt last week. The binding and label need to be made. That shouldn't be too hard to get done in the next couple of weeks.
The last remaining graduation quilt is The First Amendment Quilt.

It's in pieces up on the design wall. Once the friendship star border is done, the last two borders are just strips. It should go fast once I get to that point. The plan is to have this one ready to go to Trudy for quilting by April 15th. We'll see if I make that or not.
Once the graduation quilts are done, I'm pretty free to work on whatever. There are two quilts that just need borders and backings before they can be sent out for quilting. Those two would be easy pickings for this quarter. The first of those is the Meadow Mist Mystery Quilt.

I'd like to have this one done before the next mystery starts this summer.
The last quilt on my second quarter finish list is from a quilt along over over at Podunk Pretties.

It just needs the last couple of borders and it will be ready for it's backing and quilting.
That's four quilts by the end of June. That seems doable. Even if all I manage are the first two, I'll be happy with my efforts for second quarter.
Linking up with the 2nd Quarter of the 2017 Finish Along.
You can do it, yes you can!
ReplyDeleteYou need cheerleaders?! You've got it!!! LOL! I love your Podunk Pretties -- it's very happy! Is it scrappy everything, or am I seeing a 30's print theme? Like Libby said, you can do it, yes you can!!! :)
ReplyDeleteSuch pretty quilts. They're all wonderful.
ReplyDeleteThose are all awesome quilts, good luck!!!!
ReplyDeleteThe First Amendment quilt is going to be so pretty!! Thank goodness for goal setting and your drive to attain those goals. Great job!
ReplyDeleteWow! It's hard to believe that graduation is next month....this year flew by (more for you than for me I bet) :) Your goal list sounds doable - good luck on finishing your quilts!
ReplyDeleteI'm sure you'll be able to get them done. Way to go with goals!
ReplyDeleteGreat projects, all of them!
ReplyDeleteI printed off the blooms and butterflies pattern a while back. I just need to take a chunk out of my UFO's before I start more new. I'll live through yours. You always pick the perfect fabrics. Good luck reaching your goals this quarter.
ReplyDeleteDoable is right. You can do it. Very pretty, all of them.
ReplyDeleteSo close!!! I love the butterflies on Blooms and Butterflies!
ReplyDeleteYou've set quite the bar for you this quarter. I'm happy to egg, re, encourage you as needed. I am waiting to see how the 1st Amendment quilt finishes up. Keep sewing!
ReplyDeleteGreat projects, love the meadow mystery quilt!
ReplyDeleteI like Geometry, thats my favourite and it has to be partly because I just finished a similar one, in 1 inch squares. Great goals Kate, I have every confidence in you.
ReplyDeleteYou're so far on so many, they are sure to get done. Good luck with your goals and thanks for linking up for Q2 on behalf of the 2017 FAL hosts.
