To Do List for the Week of 02/18/2025

I'm finally feeling better. Which is good as this week I'm in Texas visiting Grad Girl. The timing was dictated by a concert we both wanted to attend. It's been a girls "week" as several of Grad Girl's college friends also came down for the concert.  I feel very fortunate to be included. The concert was last night and we didn't get back till almost 1 AM. Definitely not my normal hours.  The friends left after lunch, but I'm staying through the weekend to have some hang out time with my girl.  

The early part of last week, I was still feeling out of sorts.  So I didn't make a lot of progress on my to do list. 


To Do List for 2/11/2025

1.  Guild BOM: Finish March Blocks - progress

2.  SAHRR: Finish 3rd border, start on 4th border ✔

3.  Wild and Goosey:  Continue making blue blocks - no progress

4.  Summer Scrap Quilt: Continue as leaders and enders 


I made progress on the projects with deadlines. So maybe not the best week, but not the worst either. Due to the snow storm at home, the guild meeting was canceled, so I didn't have to have something ready to send to the guild president. I just have to have all the files ready to go by the end of the month.  So that helped.  

What's the plan for this week? Since Grad Girl still has to work the rest of the week, I brough my sewing machine and a few projects to work on.  She's got a full schedule today and tomorrow, so I'll just sit and sew. But I should see a lot of her over the weekend.  This week's to do list consists of what I was able to cobble together as projects that could be bagged up for travel. 

To Do List for 2/18/2025

1.  Guild BOM: Write instructions and finish March blocks. 




All the HSTs are made, I just need to sew the subunits together. I need to cut the pieces for two more of the sawtooth stars, but I've started assembly on what I have already cut.  

2. 2025 SAHRR (Quilting Gail): Finish borders 4 and 5.  

I have a plan for both borders. I just need to assemble the blocks.  

3.  Marble Mystery (Meadow Mist Designs): Assemble blocks into rows and add horizontal sashing.  




 When I last worked on this, there was just one row left to assemble.  The plan is to finish the rows and then get those sewn together. 

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




All the pieces are bagged up and ready for more work.  I won't finish all the clues, but any progress would be good. 

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

I need to cut some additional squares before I can make more 4-patches.  

Since I'll have at least one nothing but sewing day, I'm hoping to get a lot done this week. Not sure what Grad Girl and I will decide to do over the weekend, but hopefully I'll still have some time to get in a good deal of stitching time.  

Linking up with The Quilt Schmilt for To Do Tuesday.

So glad you are feeling better! Your road trip sounds fun, and the weather is just going to get better. It is 8 here in far north TX this morning, but I hope it is warmer where you are. Enjoy!
