To Do List for The Week of 03/04/2025

In spite of a weekend of pretty much nothing but stitching time, I still didn't do so well on my to do list for last week.

 

To Do List for 2/25/2025

1.  2025 SAHRR: Finish borders, 4, 5 and 6 - progress

2.  2025 Guild BOM: Start on April Blocks - no progress

3.  Chocolate Marshmallow: Assemble backing - no progress

4.  Marble Mystery: Finish assembling quilt - progress

5.  Wild and Goosey: Make blue blocks, start sashing yellow ✔

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

It wasn't a bad week, I just had way too much on my list.  The Stay At Home Round Robin is pretty intense, with a new prompt each week.  If I concentrate on it, it's hard to get much else done. So a to do list of 6 was probably not wise. There are a couple of deadlines that drove the longer list.  It's the same for this week. But I'm hoping after this week, I can back off and slow down a bit and concentrate on some longer range goals for 2025.  

To Do List for 3/04/2025

1.  Marble Mystery (Meadow Mist Designs): Finish quilt assembly

The deadline for submission for this mystery quilt parade is tomorrow.  I've got all but 2 rows pieced, I just need to finish those, assemble and add the borders.  Doable if I make this my priority for today. 

2. 2025 Guild BOM: Start April Blocks

I only have two weeks till the next meeting and these blocks need to be finished.  

3.  2025 SAHRR (Quilting Gail):  Finish 6th border and add final borders. 

All the blocks for the 6th border are finished. I have till the 26th to get all the borders added.  That's doable.  

4. On Ringo Lake (Bonnie Hunter):  Find project box, determine next steps. 

On Ringo Lake is my pick for #2 for the Chookshed Challenge.  Grad Girl asked for a quilt for one of the guys graduating from her group and she picked out this one as one he might like. I've not done any work on this quilt since 2019. First step is to find the project box and figure out how many more blocks I need to make and if I'm sticking with Bonnie's setting plan or not.  

5. Wild and Goosey (Bonnie Hunter): Assemble yellow blocks into 9-patches. 

The RSC color for March is yellow, but I've finished all the yellow paper pieced blocks for this project.  I've also finished all the orange and almost all the red. So the best plan to move this quilt forward seemed to be getting the blocks assembled into 9 patches prior to actually assembling the quilt.  I'm also continuing to assemble the blue paper pieced blocks. That's the color I have the least of and need the most of in the quilt.   

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

Both my blue and yellow piles have exceeded 100 blocks. This has been a really good leaders and enders project.   

That's my list for this week.  If I can make progress on each, even they aren't completely checked off, I'll be happy.  Linking up with the Quilt Schmilt for To Do Tuesday.
