To Do List for the Week of 11/26/2024

This is the last to do list for November!  With the holidays basically here, my stitching list will really need to get shorter.  December is not typically a month with a lot of progress and that's OK.  I've had a good year so far.  Before getting into this week's abbreviated list, here's how I did with last week's list. 

To Do List 11/19/2024

1. Old Town Mystery: Start first clue ✔

2. Squared Away: Finish borders ✔

3. Guild BOM: Finished pieced borders ✔

4. Marble Mystery: Finish November clue ✔

5. Wild and Goosey: Continue making red blocks ✔

6. Summer Scrap Quilt: Continue as leaders and enders ✔

It was a good week. With Squared Away moved to finished quilt top, I'm pretty much done with the quilt plan. For the moment I'm caught up on the guild BOM and the Marble Mystery.  So I can go with an abbreviated to do list for this holiday week. 

1.  Old Town Mystery (Bonnie Hunter):  Finish clue 1 and start clue 2

I've gotten a good start on clue 1. Can I finish this clue? Probably not with the holiday this week. Hopefully, I can get close.  

2.  Embroidered Medallion: Take a few stitches.  

Since there are plans for lots of family time during the Thanksgiving holiday, it's time to bring out my long term embroidery project so I can visit while I stitch.  

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

With the way I've been sewing, two blocks a week get finished. So about 8 blocks a month.  It's not the fastest way to finish a quilt, but there has been good progress this year.  I'll have to take stock at the end of the year and decide to make it a focus project or just keep up the steady pace on constructing the blocks.  

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

I finished off another set of 10 blue 4-patches, so back to the next set of yellow 4-patches.  

A very simple list for this week, which is fine.  Sometimes the focus is just on other things.  We'll see how well I do at getting in my 15 minutes each day.  That could be a challenge.
