5 quilt April 28, 2025

   last report March 31, 2025

I try to work on these 5 quilts until they are done. Their turn in the UFO closet is over, and, they need to be finished one way or another.  

I finished 1 ufo in April 

I worked on these older Ufos to finish them

1.  peppermint candy - This was my one monthly goal for April   it is finished

60 x 70 = 14 yards


1. kaleidoscope - I am ready to quilt this.



2. scrappy twirl - I need to join the blocks with the border 




3. fancy fox - a new older ufo on the list and it needs sashings and assembly

4. hollow nine - rainbow scrap challenge from 2023 that needs the border Which intend to applique. fingers crossed.







My April PHD report



scrap cutting

I have added another goal to the 5 quilts project. I want to take one day a month and cut scraps. I will have plenty to choose from since I really didn't cut any for 2024, and the bags of uncut scraps are piling up, all over the fabric room. 

I cut a big scrap bag for April. And it weighed 9 pounds 13 ounces of shirtings scraps. The cut pieces weighed 1 pound 5 ounces which is 4 yards of useable fabric. 2025 totals so far 12 1/2 yards useable fabric




 quilts to be quilted: 

1. wedding ring I have had this ready for a few years, but, I am afraid to quilt it myself. I want it to be special and I don't do special. So I will work to talk my self into it..... some day

Looking forward to April - finally adding a few new ufos to the list




3. fancy fox

  1. Your hollow 9 patch top is pretty! An appliqued border will be a great addition to the design.
