I finished the binding on Modern Dash.
I had a hard time deciding what to quilt on this one.
I ended up using straight lines.
It was difficult to take a photo because it's so large.
Another UFO finished.

April 2026 Challenge
2026 should be a better year for completions.
I have a lot of memory projects I REALLY want to finish this year.
My 2026 List is:
1. Donna's Memory Quilts (4)
The first top is done. Does it need to be bigger, or do borders need to be added?
2. Lillian's Memory Bears (10)
I have one started.
I need to take a few days and make them in an assembly line.
The stuffing will be the challenge.
I've sewn a little, but without much focus.
3. Ashley High School Graduation Quilt
I have the shirts sorted and cut apart.
I need to finish this quickly.
4. Memory items from Randy's clothing
4a. Memory Quilt - AMF
My son didn't want anything else from Randy's clothing.
4d. Memory quilt - MJF
4e. Memory Quilt - JJF
COMPLETED Quilts
4c. Memory reading pillow - WRS
Goal: Finish at least one Stashbuster UFO a month.

February #8 Yellow and Blue Birthday Blocks
March #4 Wyatt Matching Game
