Been busy this past month.

Although I did not complete my goal for the month (both the AQS goal as well a the OMG goal), I did get a number of of other things completed.  Here's a couple of them:
Quilt as you go table runner

This painting

is from this video.  Took me three hour

Finally, on a happy thought I found this somewhere on face book and I wanted to include it in here...

Be safe everyone.

UFO ready to go for next goal.

I'm on the third month of this biggie....  Didn't get it finished, but sure got a lot done.  It was a Block of the Month (BOM) for 2019, and my gift to my Aunt for her 85th anniversary.   It started with 3 done after the month of April.  Each piece is a full row of 6 1/2 " blocks, with the correct number across, and a need for perfect piecing.  Here's what it's suppose to look like:










Right now it looks like this:



I have another row completed, and one row 1/4 done.  So that means I have 4 rows to complete and it will be done.  Last month I finished 5 rows, I'm sure I can completed it by the end of this month.

So I'm linking up to OMG (One more goal) with Elm Street Quilts to try try again.....  This time, its a done deal!!!!

Wish me luck.

On a side note I also need to complete another quilt top that's a squirrel from SewFresh.  I have the material but nothing else.  It will be a surprise.
