March Challenge Mid-Month Check in

Hello blogland friends!  I have been out browsing blogs and noticed a few Chookshed Stitchers are once again early on their challenge goal finishes.  It is almost mid-month, so here is the linky party if you want to join in.


You are invited to the Inlinkz link party!

As for me, I have two finishes for March  hooray!  They are not my Chookshed Challenge goals, but I am super excited.

Quilted and Bound I present to you (drum roll please) Elephant Celestial Stars.  








Second March finish:  Blooms of Color is shown above.  I will show a better photo when I can take it in daylight hours.

I am thinking that two of my grand daughters will receive these quilts.  I absolutely love the quilting my local quilter did on them.  Thanks, CC.

How am I doing on my March Chookshed goals, you might wonder?  I have a good start on piecing Cross My  Heart, and I plan to get quite a lot done on it at a local weekend retreat.

As far as my Chicken Soup panel, the other half of my goal,  I am still undecided on how to finish it.  My goal is just to cut it out.  Once I make up my mind, cutting can be done in an afternoon.



Little princess had a birthday party recently and my daughter went all out with decorations and food.




Here are my grands minus little princess.  We are also getting a new one in the fall.  Hooray!








The party guests could wear a set of fairy wings or a garden gnome hat and beard.

  5. That is a fun party, love the decorations and the food. I'm buying my fabric this weekend and will have time in the last week of March to make a start on my project. This is a project I've wanted to start for some time and it's perfect that the number came up in the month I am visiting my favourite quilt shop.
