Monthly Goals

January has come and gone on that cold Arctic wind. There have been quite a few weather challenges in the second half of the month. We are currently warmer with temperatures going into the 50s this week and thawing.

 

It's amazing what a difference 48 hours makes.

Here's how I'm ending the first month of 2019:

UFO Challenge 

#3 - Color Bear Quilt done

Hosted by Clever Chameleon

It just took me a couple of extra days, so it's actually a February finish.

- assemble last row done

- machine quilt done

- binding - I ended up with self binding. I like it.

 

I love the whole quilt, but these are two favorite blocks. Now I need to decide if I'm going to save it for a gift for one of the younger great nephews, or donate it to one of the deserving charities I'm going to start working with.
