Oh, my, I think maybe if I join this group, I will be better able to stay on target for this month. Here's what I want to do by end of month:

1. Neighborhood of houses quilt top finished
2. BOM -- El's on line block party, finish March and April
3. Burp cloths finished for special project
4. Birthday blocks quilt top finished (my blocks)
5. UGRR blocks up to date--all up to date 4/6/09

If I can get these 5 things done by month's end, I'll consider it a successful month.

OK, here are mine...

1. finish up some seam reinforcement on the rag quilt (from last month)

2. baste and quilt the Lone Star

3. get together with my friend to discuss patterns and then take him to the store to pick out the fabric for his quilt

4. start on a scrappy tossed nine patch

5. try out the tote pattern that I just bought

6. BOM before the month is over!

I didn't do too bad last month, let's see if I can keep it up!

I need to make the latest 9-Patch PIck and Stitch block and finish my "ugly" swap project. Once those are done, I can consider

making my daughter's polka-dot quilt,
putting together a Happy Scrappy Houses neighborhood,
putting the sashings on blocks from the Christmas Row Swap to get the top finished,
and about eight other things I know I won't get to yet.
