Goals and Progress

   I happened upon Linda's blog in 2019 and loved this block of the month. 

She said she was playing and came up with it. She did not have a name, but it deserves a name. The units are triangle in a square or sometimes called dog's tooth units.

I have many of the units in blue and orange leftover after a Bonnie Hunter mystery a few years ago. I decided not to use them for the border. I love them in Linda's block.

For now I am calling the block “dog tooth stars”.

Major goals for this year are to:

1. finish UFOs

   I quilted and bound the “Butterfly Garden” quilt which will be baby gift. It started when I pulled out 3 butterfly orphan blocks and an orphan 3D pinwheel block. So glad they have been used.

   

   I sandwiched my “Seeing Stars” top, 

   
   
     pieced a backing for a pastel adopted project that doesn't have a name yet and then Sunday afternoon I sandwiched it for quilting.

2. decrease stash fabric

Stash fabric used or added: 

         this past week- Used:   4   yds      Added: 0 yd
      So far this year- Used: 20.25 yds    Added: 1 yd

3. control and use scrap fabric

I worked on cutting up neutral scraps into units -2 ½”, 2 ½ by 4 ½”, 2 ½ by 6 ½. Only made a little dent.



4. make charity/comfort quilts for church quilt group

   I finished quilting the “Ground Cover” quilt for my church group.

   
   
   

Stay safe and healthy while enjoying some time sewing and quilting.
