It’s time again to set a goal for the month.

If things loosen up with the third wave still going strong in April, I’m not sure if I will be able to travel to the studio to get some quilting done and finish some quilts. Hopefully getting more needles in arms will allow more in person meetings or travel, but here in British Columbia we have been told it will be 4 months before we can get our second shot.
When things do loosen up and I can travel to my studio I need to finish this quilt for my granddaughter’s best friend in case they get to travel back to Canada. They have tickets booked from Mexico for the end of May. It’s not looking great. The first lockdown, my son was en route to work but was turned around and spent lockdown at home with his family. This time he might be locked down at work, possibly until November.

I am working on this pile of fabric goodness;
I’ve been collecting batik scraps for a quilt for my bed. Some are my scraps, some were prizes from Maryellen and Emily, and some were gifted from a wonderful friend, Susan. Now I just need to finalize my layout and see how many more blocks I need to make. I’m setting a goal of having this finished to flimsy stage by the end of the month.
My third and fourth goals are to finish the two pattern test quilt tops I need to make by month end. No pretty pictures of fabric pulls for these two 😉
I’d also like to finish my panel quilt challenge this month. It is sewn but again, I need to travel to my studio to finish quilting it. 😢
The only other must do on my list is to finish writing my blog post for the upcoming blog hop.

In other words I have a list that will or will not be done due to so many variables with our lives still being effected by Covid-19.
Thank you for stopping by to read my post. 😄 Carol

Thanks Wendy. It is fun to play with the batiks and I’m hoping to go next week to play on the longarm depending on Medical appointments 😉

Hi Carol! It’s hard to set firm goals when so many rely on outside factors well beyond your control. Just being flexible and not stressing about it seems to be the only way to go forth. {{Hugs}} ~smile~ Roseanne

Hi Carol, hopefully you will be able to get your OMGs done before the end of the month! If not, there is probably a lot of squirrels that may require your attention! 🙂

Gail I’m trying to avoid the squirrels but there do seem to be a lot of them viewing for attention right now 😉

Best of luck in getting to travel to do your quilting. I know that’s frustrating.
