Get it Done–May, 2013

I managed to accomplish quite a few thing during the month of April but not necessarily what I listed at the beginning of the month.  Here we go with an April recap.

1.  Finish, once and for all, that *@#% mystery quilt.  Here it is sitting next to my sewing machine, ready to go under the needle.

After a lot of issues quilting this quilt it finally was finished and turned in to my guild so that it can be given to charity. 

2. Now that my Mock Hidden Wells quilt top is finished.  I need to get the back pieced together and the binding ready.  This one is probably going to my friend Sue to be quilted. 

The back was pieced and the guilt was delivered to Sue last week.  She’s been gone so it may be a while until I get it back. 

3.  My Scrappy Trips Around the world is completed and the binding is sewn on to the front.  I need to finish the hand sewing of the binding.

Confused smileStill sitting here starring at me waiting for me to hand sew the binding down.  It will now move to the May list. 

4. I’ve had this Hidden Wells Quilt cut out for a while.  My plan for April is to start sewing the strip sets together.  I probably won’t complete the top but at least I can get it further along.  

Disappointed smileI had good intentions with this one but what can I say………It didn’t happen.  Another one moving to the May list.

Now on to my May “Get it Done” list.

1.  My Scrappy Trips Around the world is completed and the binding is sewn on to the front.  I need to finish the hand sewing of the binding.  And I really mean it this time.

3.  I brought another charity quilt home with me the other day that needs to be quilted.   This one was started by my friend Margie before she passed away last year.  I like to think she’ll be watching over me  (and my Brother sewing machine) as we finish this one up for her.
