I have a qqueen size quilt I am hand quilting..Hoping to get a large amount of that done today...I have 12 out of 64 bloccks quilted...When I need a break, I will be going through my stash looking for some cute fabric for the mug rug swap..My partner has little info about her likes, so I guess I have to use my imagination!!

I did not think I could join in today since I have a midday get-together at a local restaurant (have to leave at noon, won't be back until around 5pm!). However, after reading that some of you just have as a goal to get to the sewing machine and sew something/ anything today, I am in! My goal will be to get into my sewing room and work on some Valentine mug rugs I started yesterday and to start cutting strips for a spring table runner. Keeping the goals light and hoping I get more done than expected:)

My goal today is to get some rows sewn together for my OBW. Sewing long rows together is much less fun to me than making the individual blocks. After that I am either going to cut and piece more triangles or will press a bunch of the HST I have been using for leaders and enders. I will probably press, that is easier to do while watching football.

My goal for today is to get as far as I can finishing my mystery train quilt, but first I will brave the ice and snow to go to church. I'll check in later.

Yesterday I achieved quite a lot of the top for Sasha's quilt, LovequiltsUK, just have 3 sides of the border to complete then I aim to layer and quilt it today, but as I have overslept it is going to be a tall order. So I must turn of my computer and get at it, will post pics of my progress later on :)

I won't have any time today to work on a project in depth (homework, ballroom, sister's choir concert, etc.). But I do have one goal for today that needs to be done. I need to iron a bunch of fabric. That's probably the only thing I'll be able to get done. I wish I had more time :(

Good morning. My work in progress is using 2 1/4" scrap squares and making stars for a scrappy quilt. Hoping to get 3-4 more blocks made today.

My goal for this morning is to finish a quilted pillow so I can bring it to my quilting group's show and tell party this afternoon.

I layed out my diamonds yesterday and determined that I need at least 5 more diamond blocks. Hoping do do at least one today. They are EPP 1 inch hexagons in the diamond shape rather than GFG, (which I have done 2 of) and are a bit slow going. If I can do one a day, I call it a good day. Then I need to do several half diamonds.

It sounds like you all are so very busy doing wonderful things, and if I can keep from checking back here to see what you are all doing, I may be able to get my goal done!
