Thursday's Update

As usual, I am overly ambitious. Last night/this AM before work I almost completed the flannel top for Summer - I just need to add the bottom border. I also got my extra backing washed for Rachel's quilt. That took care of #3 & #5 and almost took care of #1.

Tonight my goals are:
1. Finish Summer's top
2. Baste Summer's top
3. Piece Rachel's backing
4. Baste Rachel's top
5. Sew the thangles!!!!!!

Depending on how I do tonight, my Friday goals are:
1. Quilt the flannel quilt (aka Summer/December Quilt)
2. Start quilting Rachel's quilt

Isn't that enough???

LOL, by the time I go to bed on Sunday I want to have both Summer's quilt & Rachel's quilt finished. Think I can do it? We'll see! Bubby may have to be neglected this weekend. Not :-) I'll have to quilt when he's snoozing. I would let him try out one of the quilts, but they both have pink in them and no nephew of mine is getting pink, at least from me, even for just a few minutes :P.

Speaking of Bubby, I got some fleece last night to make him a jacket. It will be for next fall/winter, so I'm waiting to make it until I know his size next year. I got enough to make a matching hat and a pair of mittens as well as a blanket. He'll be decked out come his birthday :-). I should have enough left over to make a little toy or something. But that'll have to wait til next September to be started.

I also purchased this really cute bear flannel print with aqua accents. I got some coordinating brown and aqua, enough to do two quilts. Best part? All of the flannel I purchased was on sale $2.00 a yard, except for the brown, but I did have a coupon for that. Go JoAnn's :-).

Well, off to JoAnn's again - mom needs some fleece from there.
