I did get some good sewing time in before we left and then after we got back. The pieced borders for Good Fortune (Bonnie Hunter) were finished and attached just before dinner was ready last night.
The plan is to add one more narrow black border to frame the quilt. I'll call it good at that point. Good Fortune should reach finished quilt top stage sometime this week.
So if Good Fortune is the old, what's the new? The August blocks for the Meadow Mist Designs 2026 Marigold Mystery also got finished just before dinner on Sunday.
I'm pretty happy with how they came together. Now I have to wait for the next clue to come out to see what's next.
With the Marigold blocks done and Good Fortune just about a finished quilt, it's time to pull out another UFO to push to finished (or at least to finished quilt top). Linking up with Patchwork & Quilts and Sew & Tell Monday.

A weekend in Tulsa sounds fun to me - we still have plans for that at some point. When we have visited in the past, we are always astounded at the changes to south Tulsa and Bixby.
I look forward to seeing the narrow black border to finish Good Fortune. The Marigold blocks look pretty.
That sounds like an enjoyable, quick getaway! The pieced border on Good Fortune looks great, and puts you closer to a finished top. I love the blocks for the new mystery quilt, too. Your colors and fabrics are really fun! It's always kind of energizing to start something new!
Good Fortune - Wow! Love that pieced border. The Marigold mystery blocks are lovely with that speckled background. Great job!
Oh, the pieced border for Good Fortune looks great and it's exciting you are so close to a pieced quilt top there. I also really love the started of your Marigold Mystery quilt. Fun blocks!!
nice having a weekend out of town now and then isn't it
Your Good Fortune quilt turned out so pretty. Love all the colors in your Marigold Mystery.
Sometimes the day trips can be such a welcome break, can't they? Wow, that BH one's border really packs a punch!
It is so interesting that your hubby is part of the Eagle survey team. Do they go out and monitor the location and the well being of the eagles across the state? All of your projects are so pretty, Kate. The Meadow Mist blocks are so fun and delightful. The background fabric is perfect for these colorful blocks.
It's always fun to do something different than a normal weekend and this meeting sounds great. I loved to watch bald eagles when we were sailing in British Columbia and Alaska. Well done with this wonderful pieced border, that's a lot of little blocks and the final black border is going to be the perfect finish. Great to see the end of an "old" project ;) Well, you new project looks very pretty, I love the color palette you are using. Thank you for sharing and linking up!
