To Do List for the Week of 2/17/2026

Hard to believe that February is already more than half over.  I need to get busy on a few projects if I'm going to stay on track with my goals for the year.  My weekly to do list helps to keep me on track, most weeks anyway.  I didn't do too badly last week.  


To Do List for 2/10/2026

1. Kate's Choice: Assemble Quilt top and decide on borders ✔

2. SAHRR: Start the 4th prompt 

3. Scenic Waypoint: Finish hourglass/center units, start corner units 

4. Magnificent Mystery: Continue block assembly 

5. Wild and Goosey: Continue sashing green blocks 


Five for five. I'll gladly take that. Hopefully I can carry that momentum into this week's to do list. 


To Do List for 2/17/2026

1. Kate's Choice: Cut borders, layer and pin for quilting




All the blocks are quilted and assembled into a quilt top.  It looks unfinished, so I'm going to try to add a border. It should go together just like the blocks did. The plan for this week is to cut the front and back borders and the sashing strips. Then sandwich the border strips and quilt them. I'm hoping the process is more interesting than it is frustrating.  We'll see.  

2. SAHRR (Quilting Gail): Start 5th prompt

I survived curves and that wasn't at all assured.  Looking forward to seeing what comes next.  

3. Scenic Waypoint (Meadow Mist Designs): Finish corner units




The hourglass and center block units are all finished, finally! So all I have to work on this week is making all the corner units. I've gotten started, but don't actually have any units completed yet.  I'll have lots of sewing to do this week to keep up.

4. Magnificent Mystery (Meadow Mist Designs): Continue block assembly




I've only finished 4 blocks, but you can start to see the secondary patterns.  What looks black is actually a very deep brown.  So far so good, it's been fun to see this project come together. 

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



 

I've made some progress on getting the green Wild and Goosey blocks sashed.  Just a bit over one quarter of the blocks are finished. I'll need to get busy if I want to finish all the sashing of the green blocks this month.  

I'm hoping for another good week of solid progress. Linking up with the Quilt Schmilt for To Do Tuesday

Yes it is hard to believe that February is zooming by, and it is short anyway. I still love Kate's Choice. It will be interesting to see your border, if you do it. Magnificent Mystery is very pretty.

Oh wow, I can see lots of big progress on your projects this week. I hope you can see and feel the big leap forward, too. Good luck with your borders on Kate's Choice. It's getting so close to being finished!

Kate's Choice is gorgeous, Kate! Are the borders going to be the pink like the sashing? Glad you made such good progress this week!
