Wow - halfway through another month!! I just have to make a list of things to work on this week, because I have so many things I want to work on including a bunch of new things. So in order to focus my attention on Works In Progress, I really need that list.
** Saturday Sampler
** Sew Vintage pizza box challenge
** fix the 60 degree runner
** Rainbow Scrap Challenge
** Garden Star

We are doing Dresden Plate blocks for Saturday Sampler this time, and there are 3 different sizes to make. So this week I hope to get the biggest one sewn, but get the backgrounds and blades colors selected for all of the plates.
I have a couple of tasks for the pizza box challenge, and even though we aren't meeting again until August I want them done and ready to go. Each month a different member is sharing a pattern for a 12" finished star block with the group. This is the pattern that Missy shared with us, pulled from Blockheads 5 patterns. I love it. We're doing a RWB version to donate to Quilts of Valor, but some of us are doing an extra block for ourselves in various different fabric options. I'm doing my extra one in 30s prints. For the RWB version I want to do 2 - one with dark stars and light background, and the other reversed. August will be my turn to share a block pattern with the group, so I need to narrow down my choice and make my sample.
The pieces are cut for 2 more of the paper pieced Garden Star blocks. Even though we have all year to get these 12 alternate blocks done, I'm planning to add 2 more this month to the 2 already done.
For the Rainbow Scrap Challenge this month we're doing pastels, plus any "catch up" we might need to do from previous month colors. I had good intentions last week to get the pastel Salt Water Taffy blocks layed out into rows, but that didn't happen. Maybe this will be the week to get it them organized.
