To Do List for the Week of 01/21/2025

It always seems like the Tuesdays of the weeks with Monday holidays are actually second Mondays.  It's not as bad as it was when I was working. But I still get off schedule as My Guy is home and I don't follow my typical weekly routine. It's been too cold to do much of anything but sew over the three day holiday weekend.  That worked out well for the to do list from last week. 

To Do List for 01/14/2025

1.  2025 Guild BOM: Finish February blocks ✔
2.  2025 SAHRR: Finish center block 
3.  2024 Guild BOM: Add final border 
4.  Marble Mystery: Work on assembling blocks 
5.  Old Town: Finish clue 3, work on other clues 
6.  Wild and Goosey: Finish red blocks, start purple 
7.  Summer Scrap Quilt: Continue as leaders/enders 

Definitely a good week, there are check marks on every item on the list. The priority stitching got done and the 2024 Guild BOM is now a finished quilt top.  Consequently, this week's list will be a bit shorter.  

To Do List for 01/21/2025

1.  2025 SAHRR (Quilting Gail): Finish first border

The prompt for the first border comes from Kathleen McMusing.  She suggested a King's Crown block or a block that starts with your first initial.  Considering I don't want my borders to be larger than 4", the King's Crown block won't work. So after a bit of a panic, I did come up with a border that uses a block based on my first initial.  Fingers crossed it works out OK.

2. Marble Mystery (Meadow Mist Designs): Continue block assembly. 



There are only 4 #1 blocks. One down, the second started, so just two more left before moving on to block #2. 

3. Old Town (Bonnie Hunter):  Continue working on clues




I used gold rather than the coral Bonnie suggested.  Not even half way done with clue #4.  I did finish up clue #3 last week. 

4. Wild and Goosey (Bonnie Hunter): Continue to make purple blocks.




I thought I was finished with the red blocks but as I was looking over my progress photos, I still need 8 more red block to finish out the set.  That's OK, I'll go back to red when it comes up as the RSC color.  

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




I'm back to making yellow 4 patches.  When I checked the project box, I only need to make 30 more of the yellow.  I'm just over half way done with the blue 4 patches, so there's still a lot of stitching left to do.  

That's my list for this week. Since this week's list is shorter, I'm hoping for more progress on each project. 

Linking up with the Quilt Schmilt for To Do Tuesday.  Stay warm and dry, it's cold out there!

Lovely projects as always. Everything always looks so crisp--do you starch/size? (STILL have a printout of Bonnies geese hanging by my machine! One of these days!)

So many check marks from last week. Impressive! Marble Mystery is really dramatic in those colors. Love it.

I'm amazed at how many Bonnie Hunter quilts you make, I've never been into making her quilts

Hooray for all the progress last week and I look forward to seeing how the first border for the SAHRR works out for you.

My first border for the SAHRR wasn't quite right either, but I came up with something else that is working! That is a pretty gold for your BH mystery. I'll enjoy seeing how your blocks go together!
