Re: Stashbusters!!!
The month is 1/2 over and I have not even touched my list yet! This is very discouraging. This baby quilt has taken precedence over almost everything. I needed to put a Star of David on the back, and couldn't quite figure it out until this morning. Now I just need to get it under bat tomorrow and quilt it. It's due on Friday evening.
Next week, DH is out of town for the week, so sewing is my first priority. Thanks, just needed to vent a little.

Re: Stashbusters!!!
Finally finished the lone star sweatshirt for my friend. Gave it to her Friday night at dinner. Then I quilted a baby quilt for my manager. It goes in the mail tomorrow.
Now I'm quilting my version of the flying geese mystery. As far as Mom's quilt goes, I can't get it done by her birthday, so I haven't started it so I won't stress over not getting it done.
After I finish the quilt I'm working on, I need to piece a couple of blocks from the Kansas Sprit books for my LQS. We are doing it as a BOM and I'm making the samples.
