To Do List for the Week of 07/01/2025

The year is half over.  I'm always amazed at how quickly we get to this point.  We were in Crown Center in Kansas City last week for a conference. The Hallmark store there was setting up for this year's ornament display.  Christmas will be here before most of us are ready I'm sure.  

Let's not dwell on time passing, not much we can do on that front. I didn't have time to write up a post last week. Which works out as I didn't have time to stitch much last week.  So I had two weeks to work on my previous to do list. 

To Do List for 06/17/2025

1.  2025 Guild BOM: Finish July blocks, start August ✔
2.  Kate's Choice: Continue quilting blocks ✔
3.  Embroidery or Cross Stitch: Stitch one night this week ✔
4.  Wild and Goosey: Finish red blocks, start sashing red blocks ✔
5.  Old Town: Continue assembly during late night sew ✔
6.  Summer Scrap Quilt:  Continue as leaders and enders ✔


I'll definitely take six check marks even if it did take 2 weeks.  The list for this week will look pretty similar.  

To Do List for 07/01/2025

1.  2025 Guild BOM: Finish August blocks, start Sept.



The color for July was red.  The blocks got done just in time for the guild meeting last month. I have all but one of the smaller sawtooth stars cut out for August. I've got one last set of 4 HSTs to make and then I can start assembly on the Inverted star for next month.  I've been auditing sashing and border fabrics for this quilt.  I'll need to have mine assembled for the December meeting, hence the need to work ahead a bit.  

2. Kate's Choice: Continue quilting blocks

I'm hoping to get in one solid afternoon of quilting and finish row 5 this week. 

3.  Embroidery or Cross Stitch: Stitch on a project at least one night this week. 

We have a family get together planned for this weekend to celebrate Grad Girl finishing up her master's degree.  So I'm sure there will be time to sit and stitch for a bit. 

4.  Wild and Goosey (Bonnie Hunter): Finish green, start purple, sash red



All the red blocks are made and sashing them is in progress. I went back to green to work on those blocks a bit. Purple is the color for this month, so I'll pull out all those triangles and make a few of those. 

5. Old Town (Bonnie Hunter): Continue assembly at late night sew



Clue 8 is more flying geese.  I need to some more of the neutral triangles, I didn't count correctly apparently and am short by quite a bit.  

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

The first yellow border for the center of the quilt is assembled and stitched on. Border #2 is still in progress. 

So pretty much the same list I've had for a few weeks.  With the family get together for the holiday weekend and having to help Grad Girl move later this month, I'm just hoping to keep these projects moving till we get to August then things will slow down a bit on the travel front.
