April First-of-Month WIPs 'n UFOs


This is my monthly planning link for these wonderful motivationals:



 First, a look at the three April UFO considerations:

 Wild Rose Cottage (UFO) - bind it for the finish!!

 This quilt just got home from Canada! Kathy did the most wonderful quilting on it, complete with a doggie out front on the lawn. It charmed even my often-blase 19yo! I need to bind it, which will happen after the walking-foot portion of Run, Kitty, Run's quilting is finished.   I can't wait to do the finish report for this one. :D

 Dragonfly Party 1 (UFO) - is currently on Judi's quilt frame, getting this kind of attention~! I've got its binding all cut out for when it comes home.

Hoot Twister (NETY - UFO family) -  Time to do something with this super-fun layer cake that's been sitting in my kits storage for a good three years. . . 




Now for the current WIPs, which you've seen lately:
Baby English 1.0 (Gift from stash) - bind it for the finish; make the book bag; mail to Katie

Run, Kitty, Run (Gift from stash) - get the walking foot quilting done and the blue portion of the FMQ started.

BOMs (4 UFOs and the long-term WIP, Dear Jane) - continue one morning's work each week  on Kelly's Heritage quilts, Ruffled Roses, Block Swap Adventure, and Beachwalk. Try to catch up 25 Janes during the month.
