Pizza Box Challenge
Our guild had us make one block and place fabric in a pizza box.
We will trade boxes for the next eight months and make a block for that person each month.
This is our first month.

Offset Quilt Top

I finished the Offset Top I started last week.
I still need to use up the leftover blocks.

I was about to sew a table runner and got a call that my DGS had to go to the ER and had no transportation.
So, off I went to get them.
It was a quick trip, and he is fine.

I was given 5 yards of batik fabric for testing for Create With Claudia for the year.

I bought 6 yards of background fabric for Atomic Starburst and will use it on the back of the quilt.
 
I made up all the chemo port pillows
I made accordion pouches.

I didn't count the block I made for our pizza block challenge because I will count it when I finish that quilt.
I didn't take a photo either.

I donated fabric to Ashley's pizza block challenge, but I have no photo of it either.

Postcards I've received

 My postcard swap group has a lottery each month.

I won the lottery for January.

These are the ones I've received so far.

They come from all over the US and World.

Aren't they beautiful?

Prairie Moon Organizing Challenge #2

Prairie Moon Organizing Challenge #2

Clean off your main work surface. 

This is usually not a problem, but I do need a little cleanup this time around.
My pressing table is OK. 
Everything to the left is for projects I have out.
My cutting table needs figuring out what I have out that should be put away.
My sewing station to the left is good.
The mess to the right is a project that I'm using for leaders/enders.

End of January To-Do-List 2025 update

 I have some things I must finish in 2025 

1. Donna's Memory Quilts (4)

I have 4 of these to make, but I have one about ready to go.

I have 6 rows sewn together.

2. Lillian's Memory Bears (10)

This quilt is VERY overdue.

I'm sure I'll add to the list during the year, but I'll stop right here.


At least one Stashbuster UFO a month (1/4) 25%

January #36 Thru Grandmothers Window

(This is all applique, so it won't be done in January)

February #6 Wowza

I won't be able to show this because it is a test quilt that I had trouble with.

February #21 Wedding Quilt 

I don't like the design of this quilt, so it will be a challenge.


Completed Stashbuster UFOs (50%)

January #10 Wolf Postcard Wall Hanging


 All People Quilt UFOs 

At least 50% (0/2) 0%

January #4 Shelf Curtain

February #7 Bright Rainbow Quilt

This one might be easy to finish
