To Do List for the Week of 12/09/2025

It's been a busy week.  I've made some progress on Christmas preparations, but still have a bit to do on that front.  It's definitely meant less time in the sewing room. Consequently, there hasn't been much progress on my to do list from last week.  

To Do List for 12/02/2025

1.  My Girl Trivets: Quilt kitty trivets - no progress

2.  2026 Guild BOM: Finish January block - progress

3.  Lupine and Laughter: Start clues 1, 2 and 3 - no progress

4.  Magnificent Mystery: Finish Oct, Start Nov/Dec - progress

5.  Old Town: Continue Quilt assembly ✔

6.  Wild and Goosey: Continue making green blocks ✔

Two check marks, two with progress and two with no progress.  Not a horrible week, but not the best either.  There was progress, just not as much as I would like.  It's just that time of year. It amazes me that I seem even busier then when I was working.  How does that happen?  Here's this week's list. Fingers crossed I do better with it this week.  

To Do List for 12/09/2025

1. My Girl Trivets: Quilt kitty trivets

This will probably take the better part of a day to do. I just need to put the walking foot back on the machine and get it done sometime this week. 

2.  2026 Guild BOM: Finish January block

All the component pieces have been made for the January block and the block is being assembled.  I've also made a start on block 12 by making a few flying geese.  Why am I starting on block 12?  The final quilt has an optional flying geese border. Since it's a border, you need a lot of flying geese. So I'm going to give the guild members the option to make a few flying geese each month or wait till December to make all of them.  

3. Magnificent Mystery (Meadow Mist Designs): Continue working on Oct/Nov/Dec clues

It took a bit to make all the component parts for these blocks.  I've only gotten two completely assembled.  Hopefully these will go fast.  I've started cutting the fabrics for the November and December clues.  The background is cut for both clues. I'm hoping to make better progress on all the clues this week.  

4. Lupine and Laughter (Bonnie Hunter): Start on all the released clues

I've done nothing on this project, I'm going to be way behind at reveal time, but that's nothing new for me.  I've put Old Town in time out now that the blocks are all assembled, hopefully taking that off the list will give me time to start on this project. 

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

Slowly, but surely the green blocks are getting made.  They probably won't be finished by the end of the year, but any progress is good progress.  

That's my list for the week. In addition to stitching, I still need to put the tree up, redo the table decorations, finish shopping and wrap everything.  Not sure how much stitching I'll get done, but any progress on any front is a good thing.  Linking up with the Quilt Schmilt for To Do Tuesday.
