Charity Quilt

 I'm going on retreat next week, and I have so many things to get done.

All my projects are packed.

DD's projects are almost packed.

I need to prepare the guild stuff for my friend, Michelle, to take to the meeting.

This year our retreat and meeting day is on the say weekend.


This fishy quilt is quilted with waves.

Such a quick quilting pattern, but that was what it needed.

I have all my charity quilting done and can get it to the guild.

I have almost all the special projects completed.

I now need to focus on a couple of projects I need to complete this week.


Design Wall Monday 3/4/2024

  Small Quilts and Doll Quilts Design Wall Monday 

My first design wall has Arrowheads on it.

I took a class with Kimberly Einmo at the Houston Quilt Show.


I have a new quilt on the second design wall.

It is a panel. I have way too many panels.

Anyway, this started off with 4 patches going around the quilt.

But I changed my mind midstream.

I will make the 4 patches into flowers to go along the sides.

I don't know what I am doing for top and bottom.

Room update

I have been working on the room.
I just didn't think it was needed to give daily updates.

Is it complete, no, but I'm happier.

2024 to-do-list February/March Update

 My to-do-list for 2024 

This list will be changing throughout the year, but these are things I need to focus on completing.

1. Donna's memory quilt or two, depending on how it goes together. 

I took one of the boxes out and am deconstructing the clothing.

3. I'd like to make some memory teddy bears from Rob, Lillian, and Donna's leftovers.

4. Wedding quilt

5. Ashley's High School Graduation Quilt

6. Meredith's Memory Quilt

7. MAMN January - March Challenge

I finished the piano key borders and have the backing picked and the binding made.

8. Memory T-shirt Pillows for Lillian

I deconstructed all of them.

9. At least one of the Stashbuster UFO numbers each month (12/24 in the year)

Finished 4/4 (100%)

March #2 5-Pocket Pouches

March #53 Christmas Trees

10. Complete 80% (9-10) of the All People Quilt Challenge projects.

Finished 2/3 (67%)

February Biloxi Progressive Quilt
I need to determine how I will put this one together and then finish it.
I've tried and tried to come up with a unique design, but I am off.
I think part of my problem is I have an extra 8 log cabins.
So, I am taking the design and then adding those 8 log cabins in the border.


March Dr. Suess Baby Quilt
This was finished in January.
