To Do List for the Week of 10/29/2024

It was so nice to be home all weekend. The sewing room got a bit of a clean up and I got my project boxes reorganized.  My to do list for the week was pretty short and simple. But some weeks you just need that.  

To Do List for 10/22/2024 

1. String Lights: Finish borders, cut and piece backing ✔

2. Chocolate Marshmallows: Start assembly ✔

3. Wild and Goosey: Continue making blocks ✔

4. Sensational Summer Scrap Quilt: Continue as leaders/enders ✔

So 4 out 4 this week. It's been awhile since I've been able to check off all my to do items.  I did keep the list simple and that helps a lot.  I'm going to stick with simple for this week's to do list.  

To Do List for 10/29/2024

1. String Lights (Meadow Mist Designs): Package and mail out for quilting

The top is now pressed and de-threaded.  Those dark threads do show through the light background, so they had to go.  As much as I hate prepping quilts for quilting, String Lights needs to be finished up quickly. I need it before Christmas. Fingers crossed if it goes out this week, it should be back in time for me to finish it.  

2.  Chocolate Marshmallows (Seabreeze Quilts): Continue Assembly

Not much change from yesterday's post.  Getting String Lights ready to ship out slowed down my progress on this project. The plan is to get enough done this week to be able to start the borders by next week. 

3. Wild and Goosey (Bonnie Hunter): Continue making blocks

The orange blocks are almost done, just a few scraps needed to finish the last one.  I'm considering how to assemble this project. It would work well if I start with the center yellow blocks and then add the others as borders, like a medallion quilt.  Not my normal assembly method, but it might make sense for this project. I'm thinking once I have a color completed to start sashing those blocks.   

4. Simply Sensational Summer Scrap Quilt (Kevin the Quilter): Continue as leaders and enders. 

I'm working on the next set of 10 yellow blocks. Still lots more 4-patches to make for this scrappy quilt. 

Linking up with the Quilt Schmilt for To Do Tuesday.  Good luck with your to do list this week.
