Goal for April

     After the crazy busy February and March I think I need a less intense goal than free motion quilting a quilt.  So this month I am going to focus on finishing the blocks for the Graduated Cross quilt .  I do have another name in store for this quilt but I think I will save it for the finish.


     Life will continue to be busy in April, but hopefully a little less stressful.  I have a lot of the fabric cut for this quilt so I'm hoping to sneak the block making into little bits of time here and there.

     This is not a current photo so the snow on the deck is not new...but we are surrounded by a winter wonderland here again.  Oh well.  I'm linking up with Heidi at Red Letter Quilts for the One Monthly Goal link up.

These blocks are going to make a very striking quilt--hope you find time to get lots of them made!

These are lovely, it will be nice to see you work on them and grow the quilt top this month.

I love the blues in this block. Good luck with your goal. We were snow free...until today. But it hasn't amounted to anything yet...fingers crossed xxxxxx

The crosses look like fun. I love the blue one you are showing. Our weather here is pretty awesome, you should come to Texas - flowers everywhere and high seventies. Pretty awesome!

The colors in your graduated cross block are beautiful Lisa!
We got a winter wonderland in spring too.
