April Monthly Goal

I'm happy that I finished my March quilting goal, but I didn't meet my personal goal of switching out the quilts on my ladder.
Yep--still the same.
In deciding which quilts to put on the ladder, I thought it would be nice to make it an all blue and white display. Then I remembered I had a couple blue and white tops that still needed quilting. 

After some digging, I came up with four blue and white UFO's (not including my Arctic/Summer Circles that I am hand quilting). Oops! 
Sooo......I guess it will be a while before I'm ready to attack that ladder! 

My excuse:
I've completely gone down the rabbit hole working on my Stonefield's blocks--they are just too much fun! This grouping had a few too many pink fabrics in the kit than I was comfortable with, so I added a bit of blue. 

Also, I felt the Mirror blocks needed a little something special, so I raided my little stash of toile prints. 



This is the next grouping I have finished. I didn't replace a lot of the fabrics this time, but did switch them around a bit. 

The designer's notes say that she planned this to be center block of the quilt, so I added an initial to it just in case I do the same.

My four unfinished tops now have their bindings ready and waiting, and one even has a back ready to go too.
Okay--I confess...
it's a small quilt and all I had to do is find a piece long enough to fit it. 

So, here's my One Monthly Goal for April--Wagon Wheels.
I'm so shocked that I haven't finished this quilt, because I do really love it. I've found a nice backing fabric and will do my best to get this one completed and ready to hang on that ladder!

  10. Your Stonefields blocks are just too wonderful! The centers of your mirror blocks are charming. When you finish this month's goal you'll be one quilt closer to enough for a ladder of blues!

  13. ومن الجدير بالذكر أن مؤسسة للخدمات المنزلية تقدم خدمات بأثمان خارج المسابقة، فهي أرخص مؤسسة نقل أثاث ، فاعتماد المؤسسة على أساليب وطرق عمل متطورة وجديدة في نقل الأثاث أسهم في إدخار العديد من الوقت في نقل الأثاث وأيضا التعب، كما أن مؤسسة للخدمات المنزلية تستخدم مركبات هائلة المقدار لتتسع لأي زيادات أو احجام خاصة بالأثاث، فالسيارات التي تستخدم لنقل العفش تكون مغطاة، وهذا للدفاع عن العفش في فصل الصيف و في فصل الشتاء من الأسباب الجوية المتغايرة مثل معدلات الحرارة المرتفعة في فصل الصيف ، وأيضاً من الأمطار والرياح في فصل الشتاء، ايضا حراسة العفش من الأتربة والغبار، كما ان حجز الخدمة متاح أون لاين طوال الأسبوع وطوال اليوم، والدعم الفني متواصل ومتوصل مع الزبائن.

  19. I am back for a second look at your blocks. A quilting friend and I had lunch today and a visit afterwards. We were talking about your Stonefield blocks. She has been seeing them on Instagram. My friend says she likes everything you make and I know I certainly do too.
