A new month is here, and that means it's time for a new list of goals. Forward progress is the name of the game this month, but I'm also going to start a couple of new things because that is how to keep my mojo going.
- New Saturday Sampler is introduced this month at The Pin Cushion - always fun to start a new one!! There may or may not be a task involved with October. We'll know in a week.
- Continue sorting and removing books (and patterns) from my sewing room
- Final color for Rainbow Scrap Challenge is YELLOW
- Gingham (2)
- Ohio Star (1)
- Twinkle Stars (need several colors)
- Diamond Tile (need several colors)
- UFO projects to move forward at least one step
- Use 20 Rainbow String blocks to make a flimsy
- make more Flying Geese for border of previous Saturday Sampler. (need 120 total)
- make last 3 Bee Patriotic blocks
- Use pairs of Ritzy Cracker blocks to make a flimsy
- 2 pillowcases
- WIP (Works in Progress) - keep them moving forward at least one step
- Boo bench pillow - work on blanket stitching applique
- Spooky Houses - add embellishments, quilt and bind
- Cut out 1 Simple Whatnots project - either the new one or a previous one
- Pick a PIG - Snowman Meadow wall hanging
- Chose a design & fabric for a Christmas stocking for my daughter's MIL who lives with them
NOTE: just added some additional masks for grandkids to my October list including Halloween ones for the girls. And the October APQ UFO Challenge drew #6 for the month, and that includes a sewing themed door hanger that needs quilting. HMMM!!
The Rainbow Strings quilt will be small, with only 20 blocks, but I have a plan for an outer border to make it a little bigger. Black dotted sashing and borders, bright corner stones, and possibly bright 4-patch corners on the outer border. We'll see how it comes together. These string blocks have been collected over the past 2 RSC years, so it's time to do something with them. It will make a great donation quilt for a child.

Auto correct took over my previous comment. Nice set of monthly goals. I like the fabrics for the snowman wall hanging, especially the red plaid.
Love those colorful string blocks. You've got a good list for this month. Fingers crossed you have lots of progress this month.
