    July 2025 Goals

I do need to start quilting some of my tops. Maybe I will add one to the list a little later this month – maybe a Halloween quilt so that there can be a new one hanging this year. Related Images:

For my May goals – I am going to scale back a…

    Designer Mystery BOM block 10 Among the Stars month 6 Among the Stars month 7 Rose in Bloom month 4 Backing for Harvest Road Backing for Merry go round work on Sugar Cookie Sandwich, quilt, and bind 39 and holding i missed posting about last months goals. It has been very busy at work. My manager transferred to another department at the end of February and I was asked to be interim manager for my department on top of my regular duties. It has meant a lot of overtime for me. Related Images:

    February Goals – Revisited

    So these were my goals for February: Finish cleaning/organizing sewing room I finished – (as much as I could) organizing my sewing room from getting my dream box. I think it will still be a little while before I am completely done as I still have two more totes to unpack. Designer Mystery BOM block 8 – this was done (here) Designer Mystery BOM block 9 – this was done (here) Month 5 Among the Stars BOM – this was done (here) Month 2 Rose in Bloom BOM – this was done (here) Month 3 Rose in Bloom BOM – This was done (here) Sandwich Pink and Purple Quilt – nope, all I did was get it out of the closet with the backing. But hey! At least I took a step for this UFO! Start Basket of Blooms – I started this (no picture yet). Only have to add the outer border! However, I did finish quilting 4 quilts (Christmas Wreath, Trifiles, Pink Log Cabin, and Faux Stars). I have all but the Faux…
