In the month of May, I didn't have lots of time in the sewing room due to a week of training at work and our family vacation. Even after arriving home, I didn't get much done. Even so, it was a good month. I spent 19.5 hours quilting and got the following done:
- Finished quilting and attached binding to Sara's quilt. I've spent the rest of the month tying off the ends of thread and now just need to sew down the binding and hanging sleeve.
- Finished B. Ferrier workshop quilt top and made binding for it.
- 6 log cabin blocks
- 2 woven star comfort quilt blocks
- Loaded and quilted my friend Lois' Trip Around the World quilt
- 1 buck-a-block
- Finished FQ quilt top and borders
- Finished piecing all the blocks for Five Easy Pieces
So, now I am going to participate in a UFO (unfinished fabric object) challenge with my online group over the summer. Part 1 of this challenge is to post your list of UFOs, so here's mine (including cross-stitch items as well):
So, having said that, goals for June are:
- Finish Sara's quilt and give it to her.
- Finish B. Ferrier quilt and give it to guild for the quilt show small quilt auction.
- Quilt at least one thing on the HQ
- Make a new purse for Columbus NQA show
I think I will leave it at that and hope that any additional time gets sucked up by the ufos above!

When are you going to Columbus? I'm going on a bus with my Guild on Saturday. Linda is going to with her other group of friends, but I will be buddy'ed up with Cathy.
