2017 First Quarter List

     Last week was a busy week for me.  So busy that I forgot to link up a goal for One Monthly Goal. Oh well I haven't missed the deadline for the First Quarter of the 2017 Finish Along.

1.  I'll be making one or two quilts out of this fabric.  


Yvonne of Quilting Jet Girl is hosting an Allison Glass Challenge with a link up at the end of the month.  My One Monthly Goal for January is to finish at least one Allison Glass quilt.  I'm working on a simple plus pattern so I think I can get this done in time for the link up.  But I do need to buy some backing fabric

2.    This one is back on the list.   There's a lot to be done here.  Make more blocks to start...but I like it so I'll try to do it.



3.  It would be nice to finish my 2016 Stash Bee Quilt.


   4.  The Snowflake Shimmer Quilt Top (Quilting Jet Girl Design) is waiting to be quilted.


5.  As does this blast from the past.  This is the second quilt top I  made and it's time I quilted it.  It will be good to practice some fmq on.  I think it will look fabulous on that chair which is leather and freezing in the winter.  It needs something to warm it up.





6.   My aunt would really like a tea cozy and as I can't seem to find one of the sort she would like in the shops...I've decided to make her one and maybe I'll make one for me as well.  I'm thinking these one offs of Japanese fabric might make a good cozy.





7.  I've also got plans to make a donation quilt with these fabrics along with some others.



     Well I think that's given me enough to pick and choose from for the first quarter.  I'm linking up with Leanne from She Can Quilt and with Beth at Cooking Up Quilts. What's on your first quarter list?

Lisa, this is a great list. Those drunkards path blocks are pretty darn good, look at those curves! And I can't wait to see how you finish up the orange and green quilt. I'm all about digging out older quilts and giving them a finish this year.

That is a great list! It should be fun to finish up that old top. It sure is pretty and will make a great cuddle up quilt on that chair!

This is a good list! Good luck on reaching your goals. It's funny, I made the OMG list but thought I missed the FAL. Guess I didn't after all. Just need to write down all my Q1 goals now.

Lots of fun things to work on. Here's hoping you are able to get some done. I like your robbing peter to pay paul blocks. (Hum, or are they big clam shells?) Looks like sherbet to me.
