Oops! I got sidetracked and forgot to actually hit the Publish button on this post.
After months of having little or nothing on my calendar most days, November is shaping up to be very busy. College basketball season is beginning tomorrow, some Quilts of Valor will be presented at a couple of different events, there is some family time for Thanksgiving, and a week-long trip is planned. That means I either need to get better organized, or should not plan quite so many projects to work on. However - I've decided that ANY progress this month on UFOs or some of the WIPS will be OK. No pressure to finish anything!!
I had this quilt on my list of November goals, but then got the binding done on Happy Cats while watching football on TV last weekend. SDSU Jackrabbit football (homecoming) on Saturday afternoon, and Vikings football on Sunday. So I guess I have one thing checked off my list already. The Happy Block pattern is a freebie from MaryQuilts website, and it is great for showing off a fun focus fabric - or an I-Spy project. I used 6" squares for this one rather than charms.
The APQ UFO Challenge chose #10 for this month. One of my #10 projects is the Windmill, so this one will go to the quilter next along with the Hello Birdie flimsy.

Any progress is good! I can finally concentrate on inside stuff rather than outside and from the sounds of our weather coming up that is a good thing!
you have quite a list! I do not know what we are doing for Thanksgiving this year - maybe nothing!
Pretty quilts. My productivity has completely stalled and it doesn’t seem to bother me. I’m enjoying lazy days filled with reading.
Sometimes we just have to be happy with progress whatever it is for a given period. Good luck with your plans for November. Wishing you lots of progress!
It looks like you are well organized for this month. I look forward to following your progress.
