My Second 2019 UFO Challenge Report

April is over and it is time for my second 2019 UFO Challenge Report.  I chose to give myself 2 months intervals to get things done, and it's kind of working more or less.  Here goes:

In my Create Your Own BOM, I'm one block behind but have managed to get 3 of the 4 almost done.

                First one - done; Second one - 2/3rd appliqued; Third one - ready to applique.

For the UFO challenge I was suppose to make the 4 patchwork blocks for that same quilt.
Got one unit of 16 units done - had to first figure out how to make an accurate 3 1/2" square that has 11 pieces.

one on right finally correct.

When all the units are done, it will be a 9-patch 9 1/2" block.  There are another 16 units of another configuration to make also.  Going to do this at the quilt retreat in two weeks.

Then in between this UFO work which had me so frustrated, I worked on another oldie.

This top was started in 2016 and finished that same year. Just needed quilting. It's for a family member. The blocks were from Pat Sloan BOW Winter Solstice to make Angela's RSC challenge of the same year. 

Then the charity quilts:

five scrap quilt tops while quilting the rainbow quilt.

Lastly, still working on that mini medallion quilt from scraps that's still on my design wall.

I've finished my medallion bunny quilt top. I've named it Bunny in the Garden.

Measures 36.5 by 38.5" . It will go to St. Anne's as a baby quilt for low-income mothers. I'm quilting it now.

Stash Report: I used  1.86 yds for this quilt.  Also used .20 yd for the other medallion. Added second quilt round.

Now measures 14.5 by 16.5"  - all from a scrap bag. That's it for fabric.  The new YTD total for destashing is  40.78 yds. 

Again didn't have time to post my likes on Thursday, but here are a few shots of my past week:

Another morning bouquet from DH's shade house

An empty carport - car at dealers for A/C work. Boohoo.

Primrose at their prime early one morning

I'm so happy that the car repair turned out to be only 1/10th of what we expected. Woohoo!

In the 15 minutes to Stitch, 2019 - I had one day without stitching this week.  New stats read:

15 minute days/week = 6/7 days
15 minute days/April = 23/27 days
15 minute days/2019 = 109/117 days
Success rate = 93.16%

Some of This; Some of That

On my design wall is my bunny medallion - 3rd round done.  Now measures 25.5 by 28.5".

Think I'll go for an all over print for the next round with "wonder of wonders" mitered corners.  We'll see if I have enough yardage for that. Can anyone tell me the extra number of inches I need for mitered corners.  Thanks!

Stash report:  0.48 yd for the scrap medallion bunny quilt top.  0.12 for scrap medallion Hawaii top. Then for all the trials I've done while working on my own two medallion round stitch a longs, I've used 1.6 yds so far this month. Year to date total now is 38.72 yds of destashing.

In the 15 minutes to Stitch, 2019 - I had some days with stitching this month.  New stats read:

15 minute days/week = 7/7 days

15 minute days/April = 8/20 days

15 minute days/2019 = 95/110 days

Success rate = 86.36%

That's what happens when life gets in the way.
