Hello May

The first day of a new month can be very uplifting.  I didn't feel like I got a lot done the last couple weeks of April, between my machine breaking down and just life - so I'm really looking forward to a new start.  Along with monthly items I will be working on for the guilds, charity and for retreats, I have some long term goals.  I have 12 items that I've given myself 6 months to finish.  I have way more UFO's but I'm doing this to try and keep myself focused. 
All 12 items include quilting them.  There is a table runner and 4 place mats that I'm counting as one item, another table runner that is quilt as you go and 10 tops.  Six of the tops are done, 2 have embroidery blocks that need to be finished and 2 need borders.  
Here's the line up:
Minecraft quilt for Carter - Needs borders and then quilted. 

Flag Quilt for Bri - Needs Borders, then quilted. 

Red and Tan Butterflies - Need to Quilt.

 Bag Ladies - Need to Quilt. 

Table Runner and Place Mats, need to quilt.

 Bee-Utiful Quilt - Embroider white cornerstones, add remaining sashing and borders, then quilt. 

 On Point Batik - Needs to be Quilted. 

Frog Works, Embroider a block and a half, then add borders and quilt. 

Small golf lap quilt - Needs to be quilted. 

Jelly Roll Jiggle  - Quilt as you go table runner. 

The Bears - The top is done and pinned - Needs to be quilted.

Charming Fractions - Needs to Quilted.

 And to wrap it up the On Point Frog Quilt - Needs to be quilted. 

These are my next 6 month goals.  I would love to put about 50 more things on the list - but there are a few things I'm doing that aren't on this list also.  I think I'm being really hopeful to think I can get two items a month quilted.  I guess we'll see how that goes.  

As for today - May 1st, I am going to start, because that's the first step to finishing.  :)  Today I'm going to put the borders on Minecraft for Carter.  Not sure after that.

Have a Blessed Day -
