To-Do Tuesday 2/7/2023

The Tuesday to-do list has definitely been a big help in keeping me focused on my many projects that are in the works. It's time now to share how I did on last week's list, then figure out what I'd like to get done in the week ahead. The To-Do Tuesday link-up is hosted by Carol at Quilt Schmilt: For the Love of Fabric.


I was pleasantly surprised to get through most of the items on my extremely long list from last week.

To-Do List for 1/31 - 2/6/23

Happy quilting!

  1. Hi Julie! I think my favorite is your Storm at Sea pink heart. It is fabulous! Although I don't think you ever work on anything that I don't love. Good luck this week. Remember the journey is more important than your destination (although a finished quilt is a great feeling!)

  2. Julie 8 out of 10 is amazing! Well done. I really enjoy seeing your photos as you keep advancing your projects. Your PQ project (a favourite block of mine) is perfect and your SAHRR is stunning. I love your Storm at Sea heart in case I didn't tell you before.Good luck with your hop project and your list this week. Thank you for linking with TO Do Tuesday.

  3. I just checked out your guild block post and wow! Your projects are so bright and pretty, I really love your pinks. I used up all my RSC 16-patch star blocks in a scrappy quilt and vowed I'd never make another, but now you are tempting me!

  4. TTD keeps me on task as well! Thanks for the "dust" blog hop info. I'm thinking of joining. Your SAHRR is looking great. So fun to see all the variations!

  5. I love your Storm at Sea Heart project, but I already have a heart quilt to hang on the front door and a table topper with a valentine conversation heart backing, so I don't really need another one. You did well on all your projects last week.
