With the end of the month, it's time report on my UFO progress and link up at P Designs USA for the January PHD Report. First off, my report.
One new start and no finishes. That's a pretty typical start to my year. At least the new start was planned for. If I can keep it to the three that were planned and finish at least 4, my UFO list should go down. I'm hoping to do much better than that, but I'm going to need to start focusing on finishing to make that happen.
The new start is the 2025 SAHRR (Quilting Gail).
Round two is finished. So far I've kept up with the prompts. Hopefully that continues. This quilt is for Grad Girl's roommate so I need to finish it before May.
There has been progress on several of my other projects this month.
Wild and Goosey (Bonnie Hunter) is my Rainbow Scrap Project for 2025. This month's color was pink. I'm not using pink, so the plan was to finish all the red blocks needed for the layout and then start on some purple blocks. I miscounted how many reds were needed, I still need 8 of the 3.5" squares. By the time I realized that, I'd moved on to purple. I'm sure red will come up again later this year and I can finish those up. I've wrapped up the purple blocks for now and moved on to blue which is this month's RSC color.
My leaders and enders project for 2025 is the same as I was using for the last half of 2024, the Simply Sensational Summer Scrap Quilt (Kevin the Quilter). I added 10 of the blue 4 patches and another 10 of the yellow. I checked my counts, there are still lots of 4 patches to make.
The 2024 Guild BOM is now a finished quilt top. I wasn't so sure about the dark gray, but it works. There is no plan for this quilt, hopefully it will get finished this year. But I have six other quilt tops in the closet to finish first.
Most of January has been spent on block assembly for the Marble Mystery (Meadow Mist Designs). Attaching the sashing is ongoing.. Hopefully this will be a finished quilt top by the end of February.
Not as much progress on Old Town (Bonnie Hunter) as I would have hoped for. Clues 1 and 3 are finished. Clue 4 was finished after the end of the month and I'm more than half way done with clue 2. I'm slowly but surely working through all the clues. Hopefully I can finish clues 5 and 6 before the end of February.
The 2025 Guild BOM is on track. Since I'm the owner of the program this year, I have to be a month ahead, I've not started on March yet, but January and February are completed.
My project tracking sheet doesn't show much progress.
But a finished quilt top and progress on five other projects isn't a bad start to 2025. February is a short month, but hopefully I can keep up the momentum.
