    Trying to give myself a kick in the bum to get going on either my Flying Geese quilt or my blue and white UFO that I just discovered from 4 years ago.
    I dragged out the UFO and it likely only needs about 3 hours on the top before I can start the borders. I just need to actually begin.

    I’m in a similar boat. I have one UFO on the design wall- the quilting is done, but it needs some accent work- probably three or four hours then binding. I have another UFO on my PC420- It needs more thread painting this one needs hours and hours and hours of work. I have block 4 from the 2017 Helen Godden quilt along on my table to finish painting- probably take me about half an hour. But- I have a major case of the ”I don’t wannas” today and am instead laying on my bed reading Quiltingboard on my ipad LOL!

    Got started on my UFO...Made the mistake of counting how many blocks I have left to quilt...19. I should not have done that.

    I plan to do a big floofy feather border all the way around and I am eager to get to that, but doing the blocks is going to be a bit of a slog as it's all repetitive ruler work and I'm just not feeling it. Oh well...First World problems, right?

    Had Surgeon appt yesterday re my shoulder-exhausting, went to bed at 7:30pm
    Today, went to a group sew and then to lunch. Very refreshing. Got 3 of the cases done there. Have 3 more to finish then decide what next-probably LA.

    Working on trying to finish the border of a Sunny Skies quilt (by MSQC) that a friend wants made into a king size. But first thing this morning DH has a retina specialist appt for a checkup (after laser surgery 2 months ago for a torn retina). I need to go with him because he still has a "floater" in his eye, and hopefully they can do something about that. He says it looks like a big spider with hairy legs.

    Trying to finish up my Bonnie Hunter On Ringo Lake. I always seem to be behind in my projects. Trying to figure out how to quilt it.

    It’s such a busy quilt that I’d be tempted to do a quick edge to edge design.

    That one’s still on my UFO pile, blocks are made but not sashing- someday when I’m feeling it I’ll pull it back out. Yesterday had a tooth pulled so nothing got done in the studio. I’m hoping to work on painting block 5 of the Helen Godden 2017 QAL. Probably not up for much more than that.

    I'm putting a Quilt of Valor non-patriotic quilt on the longarm frame this afternoon. I'm quilting a cloud pantograph on it. Our QOV group offers non-patriotic quilts to veterans and the national organization asked for more non-patriotic quilts so we're busy sewing away for the next few months. I'll post a picture when it's loaded.
