With the holiday and family plans, I didn't get much done on my To Do List from 6/27, so I skipped writing a post last week. Even with the extra week, I didn't get everything checked off.
To Do List for 6/27/2023
1. Just Two Charm Pack Quilts blog hop: Finish assembling rows, start assembling quilt top ✔
2. Diatom: Finish block 9, cut block 10 - progress
3. Wild & Goosey: Make 2 blue or green blocks ✔
4. Chilhowie: Leaders and enders project ✔
So there is progress even though not everything got checked off.
I'm heading to Texas to help Grad Girl pack and move to a new apartment later this week, so I won't have the weekend to stitch. So next week's list will reflect that.
To Do List for 7/11/2023
1. Just Two Charm Pack Quilts blog hop (Meadow Mist Designs): Finish assembling the quilt top.
I've cut the border strips, so all that's left is to sew the rows together and add the borders. If I can get that done before my trip I'll be happy even if nothing else on the list gets checked off.
2. Wild & Goosey (Bonnie Hunter): 1 red block
I really wanted to add 2 blocks to my list, but I really need to go through my red scraps to add some variety to the blocks. I may get to that this week. It just depends on how far I get on the blog hop project.
3. Diatom (Quilting Jetgirl): Finish block 9, but block 10
I spent Sunday unstitching the block borders. I got them partially reassembled. For some reason block 9 is just not going together as quickly as the others did.
4. Chilhowie (Bonnie Hunter): Leaders and enders
The hourglass blocks for block 6 are finished, so now it's time to stitch up the HSTs. Those should go pretty quickly.
5. Butterfly Medallion embroidery: Travel project
I took my sewing machine last time I visited Grad Girl, but the intent of this trip is to help her pack, clean the old apartment, clean the new apartment, and unpack. So there won't be as much down time as my last trip. So I'll take some handwork to do in the evenings.
Linking up with The Quilt Schmilt: For the Love of Fabric for To Do Tuesday.
Before I sign off today, I want to thank My Guy for sticking it out for 31 years. It's not been perfect, but it's always been full of love.
Happy Anniversary.
