June will be a moth of progress and completed projects – I can
feel it. This weekend I worked on a few different projects and feel good about
the progress that was made. I’m working on a new guild charity quilt that I
hope to finish up before the guild meeting. I was inspired by the report that
the quilts are well received especially the brighter ones so I am working on hour
glass blocks in bold and bright colors to make into a lap quilt or maybe 2
depending on how many blocks I end up with.
I also quilted my Elephant parade Quilt this weekend and will be putting the binding on this week. It has been in my UFO pile for a while now and I am pleased with how it’s shaping up.
I also started on a few mug rugs for a custom order this weekend. She’s a local fabric artist in Yadkinville and loved what I started for her so I got a few weeks to get those together before the next Yadkinville event on the 21st.
I am still working on finding a few more events to attend in the upcoming months and need to now narrow down the events list that I have compiled --- I’m kind a worried that quilts won’t sell that well when it’s 90 degrees outside and some of these events can be pricy to attend.

So with the proclamation of June being a month of progress –
what are the goals?
- Complete elephant parade quilt (just binding)
- Complete city view quilt (half quilting and then finish work)
- Complete t-shirt quilt (quilt and bind)
- Complete baby clothes project sampler (I get such a interest in quilts made from baby clothes at events I have decided to make up a sample)
- Continue keeping pace with the block of the month and block of the week projects – new blocks tomorrow with the BOM and another with the BOW tonight (this will put me 3 behind but I like doing a few at a time)
- Complete custom Mug Rug order (by 6/21)
- Father’s day project for FIL (oh my that's the 16th)
- Hourglass charity quilt (or 2) -- next meeting is 6/25
- Craftsy BOM project
- Baby block
- Determine schedule for upcoming shows -- ASAP
Lofty goals I know – but I like a challenge.
Happy Quilting Everyone
