Quilting Goals

Here is a list of projects I would like to work on this quarter for the 2018 Finish Along for the first quarter. It is ambitious but any progress would be good on each of them. I've also separated out January's plans for the One Monthly Goal.

On Ringo Lake



When I added this quilt to the list of quilts I have started, I noticed that I had been really good at finishing the quilts I started in 2017. 100% of the quilts I started in 2017 are either finished or started late in the year and currently in progress. I am going to take the prize before the auditors find any mistakes in the record keeping.

I want to keep up with this accomplishment by getting this quilt finished this year. I hope to get the top made by the end of the quarter.

Adinkra

 

This quilt has been quilted and needs trimming and binding.

365 Circles




There are plenty of older projects that need attention, and I decided that rather than finding older projects to finish, I might as well work on the ones I worked on in 2017 to get them closer to the finish line. I hope to make many more circles for the circle quilt. I think a circle a day is manageable again, so I hope to make 90 by the end of the quarter.

Life of Plenty




This is another quilt I worked on in 2017. I would like this one bordered, quilted and bound by the end of the quarter.

Finish another UFO top

I hope to get at least one UFO quilted by the end of the quarter, but will choose it when the time comes. I want to allow myself some flexibility. The Droid quilt seems like it might be a good one to finish.

I've linked up to Capitola Quilter where you can see other people's plans for the Finish Along.

January's Goals

For the One Monthly Goal, I would like to finish the Adinkra quilt. It is the closest to the finish and it will be nice to get it done. I do plan on making more progress than just this quilt, but will be happy to have a finish to start off the New Year!

Ooh I love all of these! I wish I was more interested in piecing, I really like the look of the Ringo Lake. Great goals, and beautiful projects!

Lovely projects, isn't it nice to have a variety of tasks -- applique and piecing and quilting -- to work on.

Looks like you have a good plan!! I think if you are on a 2017 roll, go with it!!

My Quilty365 blocks are not even as far as yours. I would like to get that quilt made this year and have a few ideas. Just need to carve out the time. I remember how much I loved seeing yours with all their intricate and unique details. What fun to see it again here. Most people are using the same color scheme but your fabric choices for ORL are particularly nice. Good luck with these tasks.

Your circles are quite fun, including the newest ones in your most recent post. I like how you make the circles your own and not just one circle in a square like most everyone else. Very creative of you!
