April 2019 OMG

My April one-monthly-goal will be


  • to complete the Almost Amish Irish Chain to a flimsy
  • to complete 2 BTCT hand applique blocks
  • to complete the machine applique on 6 Morrell blocks
  • to complete at least 2 more chapters on SMOWJ


And this is not an April Fools joke. 
I will be taking all this to the Shipshewana retreat next week.

I almost added complete the machine applique on the rest of 36 Huguenot Friendship Quilt but that would be a joke. But I might get it done also. 
Now to finish packing the project boxes. I need to find some thread to machine applique the hearts and the cone of Vanilla Milkshake thread for the Morrell blocks and a seam ripper. I have several. I should be able to locate one to take along. And travel insurance and US cash. I better get busy. 

Blessings,
Chris

  3. I once went to retreat without a ripper (mine is named Jack) and I never noticed before how many times I used it until I had to get up and borrow one. I seemed to have overcompensated because I have five in my tool bag now.
    Enjoy your retreat!

  5. I hope your packing goes smoothly! If it were me and I was trying to pack up so many different things for a retreat, I would surely forget important tools and notions that I needed for each one. Have a wonderful and safe trip!

  10. Gosh your boxes are filled with 'to do' stitching. I look forward to seeing these pretties all finished.
