July is here and half of 2018 is gone. I LOVE July and especially this July because my son, who I have not seen for two years, is coming home. He has been in Germany on a church mission. His best friend just returned from his mission last night and I cried when I visited him. It will be a grand reunion!
My One Monthly Goal is to piece and quilt a small one for a friend's Christmas present. Yes, Christmas in July it will be. I have not yet even cut a piece of fabric for it, but it will be a red, yellow, and blue version of this quilt.
I did finish my One Monthly goal for June but forgot to link up. Oh well.
I always have other goals as well. I am going to list them, but I am not going to push super hard to really get them all done. If I do, I do. If I don't, I don't. It is more of a wish list because I want to spend some time with my son and do some house work.
1. I want to paint both of my bathrooms. The paint is beginning to peel and needs a refresh.
2. I want to stain the bathroom cabinet in the back bathroom. If I like it, I will do the main bathroom. Now, I don't even like doing this kind of work, but I visited my sister last week and fell in love with what she had done to hers. It inspired me. I ordered the product just yesterday.
3. Complete my Sliced Quilt top. I finished the last paper pieced house just days ago and began assembly. I have now renamed it the "Snow Globe Sliced Quilt". I know I can do this goal because it only needs four squares of fabric added to the four corners.
4. Quilt and bind Sweet Cherry Orange. This was a Stashbee Quilt.
5. Complete my Chicks in the Garden quilt top. I know it is wild and bright, but I like it.
6. Quilt & bind Chicks in the Garden
7. Cut the bees to go with the flowers I made last month
8. Sew the trees and assemble my Bear Paw Quilt.
9. Keep up with Block Lotto comments as I am hosting this month. Here are the blocks we are making.
10. Keep up with my family round robin. I just returned home with it yesterday.
11. Add my June section to Pieceful Country
