First 2019 UFO Report & Friday Finish

My challenge this year has a 2 month deadline. As February is over, it's time to report on what got accomplished.

For my new project I now have three blocks done of 40. This is my  Finished or Not Friday. Sigh, not as many as I wanted, but since I only started this in February, I'm not too discourage.  They get constructed as leaders and enders. The blocks measure out to 16.5" square.  On my design wall at this time.


I'm happy to report I did finish my UFO for the first two-month period.  Winter Blue is all done.
I started this in 2014 with Karen at faeriesandfibres.blogspot.com Soupçon quilt along.  It has taken me 4 years to feel confident enough to do my own quilting.

Has broderie perse, EPP and paper piecing.

I love the back. 
I'm making a wall hanging for each month of the year.  This one will be for the month of January.  I've also got June, July, Aug, Sept, Oct, and November done.
Here's the July one hanging in the LR now.
Some baby tops done:







and got another round done on my Bliss EPP project.

Lastly made some scrap blocks from a scrap bag. I'll show those later. I'm linking to Finished or Not Friday, Can I get a Whoop, Whoop?, Free Motion Mavericks and a few others.  You can see them all in my Linky Parties tab under the header.  How did you do?

Quick and Cold I Like Thursdays

A quick I Like Thursdays because it's too cold for me in the computer room -temp is reading 60.  I like that my cyclamen gift is still blooming from the end of November 2018.  They are so pretty a red. Love them.
Hope you are all well and warm.  See you next week.  Go on over to Lee Anna's I Like Thursday post to read about others doing this past week.



Sunday's Some of This; Some of That

First the destashing - took a scrap bag and made 16 scrap blocks from it. There's a bit left for a few more blocks, however not for this quilt. That used up almost half a yard.  I used another fabric to sash four - another .25 yds.
The blocks won't necessarily go in this order. This will be a quilt for St. Anne's, and they're going up on my design wall so I can place them as I sash them. 

I made another of the new quilt's blocks - only 38 to go - lol.
I finished quilting my UFO for Jan-Feb and have binding for it. Also, as I'll be hand stitching these today, made 3 hexies for my Bliss.  Then found 1.33 yds in that scrap bag that will go to our guild sale table.  My new YTD total is 30.32 yds.

Now my 15 Minutes to Stitch 2019 report:

15 minutes stitching days/week = 7/7 days

15 minutes stitching days/Feb = 16/16 days
15 minutes stitching days/2019 = 46/47 days
Success Rate = 97.97% 

How about you?  Got some stitching to do today?  I'm linking with Can I Get a Whoop, Whoop?, Oh, Scrap!, Sunday Stash, Design Wall Monday, and a couple others - see my tab in the header. Have a wonderful week.

Progrees is Made

Progress is made, at least some.  More blocks were added to the baby quilt I was working on (see previous post). More scraps were used. I...
