Only three check marks, but there was progress on all 5 to dos from last week. I'll take that. The goal is progress, and that happened. It's pretty much the same list for this week.
To Do List for 7/28/2026
1. 2025 Guild BOM: Bind quilt
The binding strips are all cut, they just need to be joined together. The plan is to use my time at late night sew to get the binding sewn to the quilt. I have a lot of hand stitching to do for this to get done this month.
2. Glowing Hearts (Sandra Walker): Prep quilt top and assemble quilt sandwich.
The quilt backing and the batting are laying on the My Girl's bed waiting for the top to be prepped. I haven't completely figured out how I'm quilting this one. Once the quilt sandwiching is done, I'll need to commit to something.
3. 2026 Guild BOM: Cut fabrics for remaining blocks
I did get the fabrics cut for one of the blocks and actually got that one assembled. That leaves the last two blocks. I finally sat down and looked at what I needed for both, so I can optimize my strip cutting. I'm getting low on fabric and I don't want to run out.
4. Good Fortune (Bonnie Hunter): Continue to assemble quilt.
The third row is under construction, just 4 left to go. This project will take a back seat until I can finish up the 2025 Guild BOM. There will be progress I'm sure, but it probably won't be a finished quilt top by the end of the week.
5. Wild and Goosey (Bonnie Hunter): Continue making teal blocks
I need to cut some additional teal triangles because I'm running a bit low on that color. I'm just a bit over halfway done with these blocks so I still need lots of scrappy triangles.
If I can move each to do along a bit, it will have been a good week. Linking up with the Quilt Schmilt for To Do Tuesday.

That is pretty fabric for your binding. Do you machine stitch on one side and hand stitch on the other?
Honestly there is not much I want to do in this weather besides stay in my sewing room, in spite of the fact it seems to be the warmest room in the house!
You have a fun list for the week with some pretty big milestones coming up. Enjoy your stitching time!
Excellent progress! You must be doing a scrappy binding. That will be really pretty!!
That looks like a pretty pile of scrappy binding! It will be fun to see the finish. Good luck with getting Glowing Hearts ready to quilt!
Oh what fun with those bright binding fabrics! Lovely.
I hope that you receive some relief from the heat soon. It is nice you were able to escape to the quilt room and get a few things done. Woo Hoo on checking off your To Do List. Have a great week working on your list this week. Hugs.
That binding is going to be fun. I ope it all goes well this wekk - you've done well with your progress!
