Challenging

Not like me to be behind the 8 ball (*guffaw*) but I am getting back on track now that my BOM is finished and out there.  So that means I can start back on APQ’s UFO challenge which I talked about here.

I missed out on March’s Challenge which was number 3 on my list

…my Birdie Stitches quilt which just has to be quilted and bound.  Perhaps I’ll find some time this month or catch up during the year???  That’s the plan anyway.

April’s challenge is to work on number 8, a project I started quite a number of years ago – a Japanese Kaleidoscope quilt.  Not my ‘normal’ style, as I’m not one for Japanese style, however this one caught my eye, but did go by the wayside for whatever reason.   I don’t have any photos of it’s progress as yet, but I’ll show you as I go.

What plans have you got for the rest of this month?

My February UFO Challenge

Remember I told you about the American Patchwork & Quilting UFO Challenge in this post?

I figured it wouldn’t hurt to try and challenge myself to finish, or at least progress further on 12 projects, rather than give myself the near impossible task of attacking ALL my UFOs in 2015.

Thanks to A.P. & Q., my list was written and I worked diligently on number 4 project, which was randomly drawn out for January, and we all know how that ended up don’t we?  (if you don’t, check back here to find out).

February’s challenge has been drawn and it’s…..

my Delightful Stars Quilt-a-Long BOM that I started with Michele last year but went wayside somewhere along the way.

It’s funny because I’ve been looking at some of those blocks I’ve had on my design wall as I was putting together Christmas Blessings and thinking, “I really should get back onto these!”  Isn’t it weird how it works out sometimes?  I have the first six blocks done so another ten to go plus borders and other bits and pieces….maybe not a finish this month but……

….you can expect to see some progress on this gorgeous quilt.

What will you be working on?

**PS….dont forget to enter my Grow Your Blog 2015 competition by commenting on THIS post for a chance to win two of my patterns.  This will be drawn on Feb 15th, my time….good luck!
