My first week of participating in the To-Do Tuesday linky at Home Sewn by Us was a very successful one. I listed four goals last week and managed to accomplish all four of them. I'd call that a very good beginning!
1. Pin baste and begin quilting at least one of two baby quilts ✔one quilt completely finished!

3. Scrappy Bear Paw--make pink block ✔ done
4. Orange Peel--finish last pink block ✔ done
I'm having some trouble coming up with a list for the week ahead. There's another baby quilt to layer, quilt and finish. Other than that, the main thing I need to do is some cleaning/organization. The piles have taken over my cutting table!
To-do list for 6/30- 7/6:
1. 2nd baby quilt--layer, quilt and finish
2. Scrap Snap--join blocks into columns
3. Cleaning--clear away at least one pile
That should be plenty to keep me busy for the next week. I'll report on my progress and post a new set of goals next Tuesday. I'm linking up with other To-Do Tuesday lists at Home Sewn by Us.

The pink bear paw block is really fun! Cleaning up piles in the sewing room is always a good goal. I should be doing that, too!
ReplyDeleteI like the bear paw blocks - for the RSC I am finding it nice to find one block and do repeats of all the colors
ReplyDeleteCleaning and organizing is enough sometimes! I do that in between almost all of my projects--start out with a "clean slate" and all that. It also can trigger ideas.
ReplyDeleteI love your scrappy bear paw! Great colors! Thanks for posting about the Scrap snap! It looks like fun even if I'm late to the party! I think I will take a memo from you and work on cleaning up a pile too. Great idea!
ReplyDeleteHi again, Julie! I'm so glad week one was a success for you. I sure do LOVE your bear paw block!! Is that an RSC monthly thing or is it going to be a all pink quilt? I sure can't wait to see where that block goes!! Thanks for linking up today. ~smile~ Roseanne
ReplyDeleteGoal setting is an art form unto itself. I am still in the process of becoming more aware of how long it actually takes me to do each of the many steps that go into a quilting project from its inception to the final finish. I have learned to pare that weekly To-Do list WAY down in order to have a chance of success! Love your scrappy pink bear paw block, by the way!
