one monthly goal finish

 This cute donation quilt is finished. I bought this as a kit a few years ago. I thought it would make a cute boy donation quilt. This is my one monthly goal for November too.

I had it to the top stage here  at the beginning of the month and now it is finished. I really like the fabric.

I hand sewed the binding  and sprinkled stars in the quilting

Our guild's annual donation night was Tuesday and we had many quilts turned in and were given to the police department and family services.

one monthly goal - on the go

 I bought this as a kit a few years ago. I thought it would make a cute boy donation quilt. I plan on finishing this for my one monthly goal at elm street quilts for November.

I have it to the top stage here and need to quilt and bind it. I really like the fabric.

bonnie hunter has released the new mystery fabric requirements


luckily, I have my lowe's paint chips. I won't pull my fabrics until it is time to start cutting. I have found I pull way too much fabric, just in case, and then carry it around for the whole year. I'm sure I have everything I will need. haha

on the go top

 this past week I started working on an older ufo - on the go. It was a kit I bought in 2014 for a donation quilt. It is bright and colorful and easy. I added the outside borders this morning. It was raining or I would have a better picture. I have fabric for the binding, but, I will need to find a suitable backing in my stash. Then, it will live with the other quilts waiting to be quilted.


My radishes are ready for harvesting. I picked a mild radish, and, it is too hot for me. Good thing the leaves are edible. I have had 3 whole green beans from my raised bed. 


I have made a little progress on ongoing projects. I am still making waffle stamp blocks and I had a few sets of tiny houses cut. These are always a welcome diversion from cleaning and finishing quilts.

on the go

 The mint has really done well this year. I have had several versions of mint for years, and, have not done anything with them, except munch on a leaf every now and then. This year, I have started drying them, and making tea with them. I am really enjoying them cold. By now, I don't remember what the names are, I do know, I like the taste of the ones by the rose bush more than the ones in the wash tub. 

I cut them back 2xs a week.

these are the best taste.

I found my on the go quilt that just needs borders. I bought this as a kit a few years ago.


I sewed the first border on last night.

 

The outside border is pieced, but, it looks like I have the pieces.
