This is the second week in a row that I've completed my to do list. Are my lists too easy? The plan was to focus on finishes for a bit and those are moving along. It just seems there isn't as much going on at the sewing machine. Maybe it just seems that way because early in the year I was working on 4 quilt alongs at the same time, so there was a lot going on at the sewing machine. I probably should just enjoy the slower pace for a while. So this week's list doesn't look that different from last week's.
To Do List for 06/04/2024
1. 2024 SAHRR (Quilting Gail): Prep back for quilting
The backs are usually pretty easy to prep, just a good pressing and a quick whisk of the lint roller.
2. Kate's Choice: Continue making blocks
It's been a while since I've made a sampler quilt. So I'm enjoying playing with blocks that I wouldn't normally make. My paper peicing skills are definitely getting a work out.
3. Guild BOM: Cut fabrics and start assemblyof June block
The May block was large, 24" x 24" finished. The June block will be another large one. The quilt has two of these and 8 12" finished blocks. Those checkerboard borders are a bit fiddly, you have to really pay attention to the order of those squares. Thankfully whoever drafted the instructions did a great job at making that clear.
4. Wild and Goosey (Bonnie Hunter): Make blue blocks
I have lots of blue scraps, so it should be easy to pull lots of different blocks together this month.
5. Indigo Way (Bonnie Hunter): Continue as leader and ender project
Just 12 more triangle in a square blocks needed and then I can assemble the last of the setting triangles. I'm really hoping that assembly of the quilt top is in progress by the end of the month.
That's my list for this week. It should be pretty doable. Good luck with your to do list for the week. Linking up with The Quilt Schmilt for To Do Tuesday.
High five for checking off everything on your list last week!! My SAHRR 2024 is on my summer To Do list. I kept it small so I'm toying with the idea of hand quilting it myself.
ReplyDeleteYou are doing it again--working with all my favorite colors--love the pink one at the top and blues are always fun to work with--and who doesn't love red??
ReplyDeleteHappy stitching--hugs, diane
That's wonderful that even with all of the things needing done outside of the home last week that you were able to accomplish all your goals. I hope you have another lovely week. :)
ReplyDeleteAll lovely pieces getting made there. I love the idea of a sampler with varying block sizes. Might have to suggest that for our guild in coming years.
ReplyDeleteI like the look of that next block you showed for Kate's Choice! Pretty pink with the darker contrasting fabric. Your guild BOM block is a neat one, too!
ReplyDeleteYou had a great week, Kate ! Lots of pretties on the agenda for this week as well. I am looking forward to seeing June's block. Wishing you the best on your To Do List. Hugs
ReplyDeleteI am really enjoying your blocks on Kate's Choice. Congrats on finishing your To Do list!
ReplyDeleteSome day, I'm going to start Wild and Goosey. . .I like your fabrics for your blue blocks. How awesome to have completed your list! I hope this week goes as well for you!
ReplyDeleteWild and Goosey in blues - love those blocks no matter what color you make them!
ReplyDeleteYour Kate's Choice block this week is gorgeous!!!!
The build BOM must have pretty small pieces even for it to be 24". It is lovely!
