Go to the Mount Dora quilt show on Saturday. :)

Hopefully finish assembling my two Quiltville mystery tops. My original plan wasn't right so now I have to reconfigure at least one of them. Grrr.

I have a good friend who is being ordained as a United Methodist elder in June and I'm planning to make a stole for her, so maybe that will get started in March.

Keep working on my hand-quilted wall hanging.

I don't usually commit to anything, but maybe I'll at least get a good start on this Rising Star quilt I posted about.

I will try to be realistic but things have been hectic here. If I can get my Bonnie Hunter blocks together and off to the longarmer, I'll feel successful. I will still applique on the Hawaiian blocks but that's a lifetime project. Getting a fence built this week and trips to care for Mom are higher on the list.

I'm working on a Pinwheel baby quilt right now so that needs to be finished by mid March for a baby shower. Top is all pieced - needs border(s), batting, backing, quilted, and add the binding. Gotta get with the program. Headed to the fabric store to getting some last minute stuff and feed my need to shop for material.

Most of my February goals got pushed into March due to machine problems. Getting fabrics picked and cut for the monthly lotto blocks. Getting up the nerve to cut my twister blocks! Finish the Star Wars zipper quilt. That's about it for me this month.

I am not keen on making goals but sometimes, you just have to do it.

This morning, I sandwiched three tops to add to the one I did last week. So March plans are to quilt those and get them into the FO pile.

I am anxious to start something new but wont let myself until these four are finished.

My main machine has been in the shop so I think I can pick it uptomorrow and then get quilting.

The technician said there wasn't anything wrong with it but it was very "dirty".

How embarrassing! Like sending your children to school with dirty faces. I am not sure what he meant by dirty. I cleaned out as much lint as I could. Maybe there was more where I couldn't reach. But how to get it out? I will ask.

Theresa

I don't make many commitments to myself but I know for March I will finish another 3 string quilts for donation. Our weather is so mild and snow is going away fast that I like to get out for a walk in the fresh air so I will play the rest of the month by ear.

Like your colours, Linda.

Feels good to get something on its way, doesn't it?

Hope Mom is improving by leaps and bounds.

Theresa

Linda, I like your color scheme for Allietare! Mine is so blah I can't keep interested in it long enough to finish it. Maybe this weekend I can get the top done.

Donna

Very pretty, Linda. I loved the original color-way, but yours is lovely too. I would like to make Alliatare too, but I guess I'll have to wait for the pattern to come out in a book since I didn't get it on-line.

Linda..I very much like your alletaire color scheme! I was going to capture the directions each week, but time flew by and now they are gone. I still hope to make the soltice quilt from two mysteries ago...that's slated for my retirement.

i don't make monthly goals either, but this month I decided to make bunnies for all of the females in my family with birthdays this month since Easter is this month and it's my birthday. There are total of 7 in March..or is it 8 birthdays.... I keep losing count.....And of course I can't leave the other non birthday gals in the family out of the bunny hop.... Its a lot of bunnies!

Really cute!

Theresa

Aw, V, they are so sweet! And individual, too. :) Love the one with the paisley hip - did you fussy cut that one, or was it serendipity?

Donna

I never noticed the paisley hip... Total serendipity! Still have a few more to make, but they are super easy.

How cute is that paisley hip. Cute bunnies, V.

You girls that don't make a list of goals are really getting things done! Hmmmm... I'm getting some quilty things done, but just one thing on my goal list. lol The Take Five top is completed, I decided what to work on for National Quilt Day, and then put all the blocks together except one and one more seam to connect the Rectangle LW quilt before making that package to Calif. Have also been working on a project for my cousin. I'm doing the fabric part and she's doing the crochet part. http://beeinmybonnetco.blogspot.com/2012/08/fusion-blanket-crochet-along.html

If I've already posted about this, please forgive me......it seems to be that time of my life.

Those four tops have been quilted. Now to trim up and get some bindings done.
