5 quilt may 30, 2025

    last report April 28, 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 2  ufos in May



74 x 74

fancy fox -  My one monthly goal for May is finished

52 x 62

 I worked on these older Ufos to finish them

scrappy twirl -all the borders are done, I need to trim it square and decide what I want for a border.




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

 broken dishes made with civil war fabrics I am not sure I am finishing this.




My May 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 May. The original box weighed 9 pounds 13 ounces of shirtings scraps. The cut pieces weighed 1 pound 4 ounces which is 4 yards of useable fabric. 2025- totals so far 16 1/2 yards of 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
