Lovely Year of Finishes March Goal

K.I.S.S. - you all know what that means, and that is exactly what I need to do to keep myself on track with my goals:  Put blinders on, set the goal, ignore all those other projects that are calling to me, and just get 'er done!





With that in mind, my March goal for Lovely Year of Finishes will be to get this lovely Christmas quilt quilted and bound. This way, I can take it out in December and have a special surprise!  I'm actually excited to get 'er done!


And best of all, I'll be quilting with a smile :)

February Goal for Lovely Year of Finishes

Well, shoot. I made my January goal too difficult. It just wasn't realistic with everything else I had going on.  But I did feel accomplished to get the Round and Round quilt pieced. And I have finally figured out how I am going to quilt all the negative space in it.

Looking at the calendar, February is a short month, plus I'm going to be gone for nearly two weeks, so I will make my goal easier.  My goal for February is actually two goals.

1.  I want to finish quilting the Round and Round quilt.

 2.  I will bind my Freedom Quilt, which is a project for Scrap-A-Palooza.
It's hard to see the quilting, but it's a floral motif and works well!




That's it. #2 will be easy. #1 is taking forever and the next day, but I will get it finished because if I don't, I can't get anything else quilted until it's off the frame. Good incentive for me. 

Looking forward to seeing what everyone else is working on for February!

Remember to always quilt with a smile!

I have let my blog side away in lieu of posting photos and updates over on Instagram. For me, it takes less time, and is a faster way to doc...
