To Do List for the Week of 9/23/2025

Last week's to do list started off with big plans, but they weren't to be as is often the case, real life had other plans.  My mother is doing much better.  She switched doctors last month and the new one found and treated at least one of the causes of her back pain her previous doctor completely ignored.  She's just not healing as fast as she'd hoped and needed some help getting a few things off her to do list.  I still managed to make a lot of progress my list.  


To Do List for 9/16/2025

1.  2025 BOM: Finish September and October blocks  ✔

2.  Magnificent Mystery: Start September clue - progress

3.  Old Town: Continue piecing blocks ✔

4.  Kate's Choice: Continue assembling rows - no progress

5.  Wild and Goosey: Finish teal and start green/blue blocks ✔


Not a bad week considering I was on the road for 2 days. This week will be more of the same.  


To Do List for 9/23/2025

1.  2025 BOM: Finish November and start December blocks



 

I've also found the sashing and border fabric for this project. It's been washed, but hasn't been pressed yet.  Once I get the last 2 blocks done I'll start assembling the quilt. I can't add in those blocks till they are shown at the guild meeting, but getting as much done as possible before December will be really helpful.  

2.  Magnificent Mystery quilt (Meadow Mist Designs): Start September clue  

I purchased the background fabric for this project last month. I washed it last weekend and discovered that I'm short a yard.  So I'll have hit the quilt shop for another yard so I have enough to finish the quilt.  

3. Old Town (Bonnie Hunter): Continue piecing blocks at late night sew.

 


Twelve of the 25 blocks are finished.  Parts of other blocks are at the sewing machine waiting for assembly.  I'd like to get this to finished quilt top before this year's mystery starts up.  That may not happen.  We'll see.  

4.  Wild and Goosey (Bonnie Hunter): Continue making green blocks




I need 12 sets of 4 blocks for the planned layout.  The green blocks are in the corners. The plan is to have the darkest greens in the corners, with the 2 light green blocks alongside.  I've cut some additional scraps. Fingers crossed I've got enough of the darker green to get those finished at least.  I just need 8 of those.  

5.  Guild Donation blocks (Bonnie Hunter):  Make as many as possible before the deadline. 

The guild picked Bonnie's 2025 leaders and enders block to build donation quilts with this year. I made 8 yesterday at our Guild work day, but forgot to take a picture of them. As of yesterday, we had enough for 1 quilt and about a third of another. I'm not sure when the deadline is for these, maybe next Guild meeting?  At any rate it's a good block for using up scraps, so I've been working through some of my scrap bins for the fabrics.  

That's my list for this week.  You check out all the other to do lists over at the Quilt Schmilt on the To Do Tuesday linky party.
