Get it Done - February

Well, I sure did not do a good job of "getting it done" in January. I am always thinking that I will accomplish more than do. I did manage to complete the top of Easy Street and I am very happy with the outcome. The black & white Nancy Crow project just did not inspire me in any way once I put it up on the design wall, so have decided to scrap it and do something else for my B&W challenge for Crossing Borders (contemporary art quilt group that I belong to). I just may work some of the components into the challenge. Who knows.
 
The Pine Tree table runner is on the quilting frame, but not quilted and bound. Also, I did not complete the Quilt of Valor quilt that I started. Brenda's quilt did not get machine quilted either. It is amazing how the month got away from me. Some things not on my list were completed. I cut squares for the postage stamp swap and sent them off in the mail. Finished piecing components for Blue Ridge Beauty and am now ready to piece the blocks. Blue Ridge Beauty is my group sew-in project because it is always ready for me to just grab and go with it.
 
January 2013 Get It Done:
 
· Machine quilt Brenda's quilt
· Complete Easy Street pieced top - Completed in January
· Piece and quilt the NY Sit & Sew QOV quilt
· Complete black & white Nancy Crow class project (this will fulfill my Crossing Borders challenge for January). - Scrapped this project
· Pine Tree table runner
February 2013 Get It Done: 
 
· Machine quilt Brenda's quilt
· Piece and quilt Quilt of Valor quilt (Counting this as two items)
· Pine Tree table runner quilted and bound
I will try not to over schedule myself so much in the future.
