August Block Count

 I thought I wrote this, but it seems to be lost somewhere or I never wrote it at all…

August was a quiet block month, with only 42 16-patches and 5 flower blocks.  That brings my total to 1215 blocks for 2024.

September will probably be even quieter, and that’s okay.

September Goals

 August called for…

1. Scraps: trimming, 16 patches, and flowers.  Done.

2. Quilt the hexagon quilt.  Done.  I love the texture of the quilt.

3.  Work on the alphabet quilt.  It’s been a forever UFO.  While I had great hopes of finishing one quilt and starting another, I am still finishing the first.  Still, it’s progress.

September will harder, busier, and more full than August, so I’ll keep my goals modest.

1. Scraps: trim, flowers, and 16 patches.

2. Finish the alphabet quilt.

3. Continue quilting the hexagon quilt.

4. Maybe start assembling some 16 patches into quilt tops?

Stash Report Week #35 and 15 Minutes

 No stash changes.  I am determined to finish the binding on the quilt this week, but it didn’t happen Saturday like I had dreamed.

I did work on my hexagon quilt every day.  It is slowly moving along.  Since I’m working diagonally across the quilt now, it’s a bit challenging to “feel” like I’m making progress, but I know I am.
