February Line Up

Here's to February.  We have a lot going on here this month and it's a short month.  January seemed like a very long month and I got a lot of stuff done. 
Here was my January UFO that I listed and got done... 

It will be interesting to see how much I can do this month.  We have our family coming to visit for 5 days. Oldest daughter and husband, grand daughter, her husband and 3 children.  We are so excited.  Our middle great grandson will turn 4 while they are here and this will be the first time we get to see our great grand daughter in person.  
Then a week after they leave, I have a 4 day retreat.  That is where I'm hoping to get my February stuff done.  So Here's what I think I want  to work on and do this month. 
For my Quilting UFO.. Charming Fractions I need to get it pinned so I can quilt it. 


Next I will be making a quilt for my Daughter in law.  It may take me all 4 days, but I'm hopeful I will finish the top at retreat. Her birthday is December 31st.  That will give me a few months to get it quilted.   
I did some practice circles and feel like I can handle. 
Next I want to make another quilt for my oldest great grandson.  He had a baby quilt but he's almost 9 now.  Time for a new one.  I've been told he really likes Minecraft... but want to verify before I do all that work.  And since he will be here in person I can ask him and show him what I'm thinking.  Once I have the go ahead I will make some version of this....
 I saw several versions on Pintrest, and since I can talk to Carter I can make sure I make it with the characters he likes best. 
If I don't get to it at this retreat, I have two more in March so I can start it then. 
Other things for February - I have a couple quilt tops that need a border, then they will be ready to quilt.  
I also will be posting another post about my One Monthly Goal.  
I'm sure this is more than enough, considering that I will also have guild workshops and charity projects, and my hand stitching projects....  Oh my.  :)
Have a Blessed Day!
