Charming Guys & Girls Quilt Club
March Goals

Every month I set goals and only manage to accomplish a few but this month I'm determined to accomplish every goal. Here we go; the list is long :-)

1. Roundabout Schnibbles pattern for The Year of Schnibbles club

2. Carol sent this sweet kit to me for my birthday last Summer and it screams Spring so it's a must do (psst, Carol, thank you, again)

3. A project using one of these Jelly Rolls - Aster Manor on the left or Dandelion Girl on the right
4. Quilt and bind my State Fair Schnibbles that I made last Spring - do you remember? Sigh!

5. Finish my Rabbits Prefer Embroidery project - it's been languishing in a basket.

6. I've spent the last two days quilting these two "Piece of Cake" quilts. I'll spend a few evenings binding them and then mail them away to two special friends. I'm hoping to have them in the mail by Saturday. (pattern by Thimble Blossoms & Simple Abundance fabric by Thimble Blossoms & Cotton Way/Moda)

Wish me luck! LOL I really believe I can achieve these goals. Stay tuned. :-)

Thanks for stopping by - I do appreciate your visit. If you need me I'll be with my BFF, Molly (my sewing machine)

In Friendship!

Ok. You've inspired me. I have got to start creating monthly goals to focus on. I tend to spend more time starting than finishing. Thank you!

You've got some great things lined up! I love the colors of your State Fair...so bright and pretty!

Sandie @ crazy'boutquilts said...

Oh my~ great projects! State Fair is so cute and I just love the rabbits in redwork!! :-) I'm looking fwd to your Jelly Roll project too. Happy Stitching!

Carol said...

Your Piece of Cake quilts are beautiful with Simple Abundance fabric, one of most favorite fabric lines. Good goals. I do remember now that you mention it sending you the turnover of Aviary. Have fun with all of your projects.

Nicole said...

You can do it! Gosh I love that Simple Abundance fabric.
I am so far behind with the Schnibbles, I don't think I can ever catch up!

Kaaren said...

It'll be a challenge, Darlene but I just know you'll do it this month. If not, it'll be pretty darn close.

Gorgeous projects which in itself is a great inspiration to keep on stitching and sewing.

Karen said...

Oh, you do have a lot on your list. I hope you can finish the Rabbits prefer embroidery quilt. I like it very much.

Well, I'm curious what jelly roll you will be choosing and for what project?
Enjoyed seeing all your latest goals and hope you'll share a picture of the quilts your mailing. I've been so busy lately that posting or visiting blogs seems far and few between. Always get excited to see your name at the top of my side bar!

Loris said...

I count at least 3 quilts and 3 bindings plus that beautiful bunnies and baskets quilt. That will be a full month. They all look like delicious projects though so hope you will enjoy every stitch.
I think I need to make a list too.

Thelma said...

Wow, Good Luck with those goals!

I love State Fair, the two skinny containment borders are perfect, and the fabric, yummy!

Here's to hoping you cross every item off your list!
