Working through the list

I always have a list, for quilting and for household things to do.  List making is just a fact of life for me, and has been for decades.  My kids might remember my sticky notes with things crossed off as I got them done.  Or maybe they never noticed it.  LOL

My list for this week is on a sticky note on my desk, and there are a few things checked off.  On the top right, by the pen - that's another list, with a couple of meetings and appointments that I don't want to forget this week.

On Monday's post I had a list of quilt-y things I wanted to accomplish this week.  I can check off the pizza box challenge, because I have both the RWB and 30s versions of this month's block done.  And, I've chosen the block to share at our next Sew Vintage group meeting.  In fact I've made a couple of samples of the block and prepped the handout with the pattern.  Check!!

For Saturday Sampler this month we're doing several Dresden Plate blocks, in a couple of sizes.  I have the first one sewn, except for the center.  I just haven't decided what color to use for the center.  And I have not sewn it onto the background yet.  But it's a good start.

The bad stitching on the 60 degree runner has all been picked out.  Now I need to redo the quilting that was removed.  No more pleats in the backing is the goal.

One more Garden Star block has been made, with a fourth one started.  However there is very little Rainbow Scrap sewing to report.  Today there are some pastels on the design board and hopefully I'll get to those things before leaving for an eye appointment this afternoon. 

Not on my To Do list for this week was binding.  I'll have a couple of actual finishes to report tomorrow because I've been binding 2 projects in the evenings this week.  Plus I need to cut some binding for 3 more Quilts of Valor today.  These 2 quilts arrived back from our state coordinator on Tuesday.  She did the long arm quilting on them, plus on a couple others she dropped off over the weekend.
