1st qtr recap and link up

Back at the beginning of the year I linked up my lofty Quarterly goals with Adrianne over at The Windy Side, so now it's time to link up again and see how I did with all those goals. 

• Complete the Medallion Quilt -- still needing to be quilted 

• Complete Rush Hour -- still needing to be quilted 

•  Find a Project to use my Cat Nap fabric -- not yet hoping to before the retreat in April 

• Swoon Quilt using Rock N Romance -- I have plans to work on this at the stash bash retreat in April. I have made progress in that I got the background fabric but none of the blocks have been made at this time. 

• Tula Pink's City Sampler -- not started but one of my friends and I are planning to start this in the next few months, once we complete the MMBB.

• Keep up with the swaps -- Bitches Stitches: done, Studio Ghibli: Done, Tula Pink: done, Kitten Mini: Done, Rainbow: done,  Stash Bash: started, Spring Mini: started, Alison Glass Mini: started, Villains Swap: complete (see pattern test below)

• Make another Sew together bag -- I've actually made 3 (here, here and here)

• Keep up with the Bee Blocks -- right on track and I'm ready to whip up this month's blocks this weekend 

• Blue string block quilt for Father's day -- all the blocks are finally made and ready to be assembled. It's going to be 120 blocks when assembled, the picture below shows when I had about half the blocks made. 

• Make at least one of the many patterns that I have from my friend Lisa Alley -- didn't get around to it, this might be another Stash Bash project or 2. 

• Disappearing Hourglass -- completed 

• Complete the Scrappy trip along quilt -- most of the blocks are complete, only 6 more to go till I have all my initial ones completed. 

• Make at least one plushie from this pattern -- nope 

• Lucky 21 is another project I will be taking to Stash Bash -- still resisting the urge to buy Cherie yardage.

• Still working on my Moda Modern Building Blocks 

• Pattern test for @the_littlest_thistle this will be for my Villains Swap partner as her main item. 

• A Few other great patterns that I didn't get started on are Allison Glass' Tessellation (doing a workshop in June with the awesome Kathleen Baden), Taffy by Jaybird Quilts, Mod Pop using my Quick Curves Ruler and All Squared Up by my friend May Chappell. 

• I'm also still working on Sewing My Stash, so far this year I am 45.5 yards lighter in my stash -- If I hadn't been adding back I would be over 130 yards lighter (but a girl's got to have a hobby right). 

As usual Happy Quilting Everyone.
