Finishing this lap quilt was my goal and I did it. I don't think I have ever completed my goals for three consecutive months. The pattern is Turning Twenty Again. I had assembled the blocks 10-15 years ago. I decided to make two lap size quilts for a charity project.

March Table Topper
I have been joining The Joyful Quilter's table scrap challenge. And this month I worked on a Santa Snack Mat from Oma's Place. It is for the Grandies in Virginia. I have one more to make for the newest little guy.

I cannot believe how fast this month is speeding by!!! No change in my yarn numbers this week but I am making steady progress on a cabled scarf and a pair of socks.

I did manage to complete a baby charity quilt. My sister gifted me this adorable panel and I used the elephant end to end quilting design from Designs by Juju. I have used several of the Juju's designs for quilting and have been very happy with each of them.

Stash Report Week 8
I am not sure where this week went, but I don't seem to have been particularly productive. But I certainly wasn't bored. Very little time was spent playing with fabric and I seem to be "tying up" lots of loose ends with my knitting.
There was no change in my fabric numbers.
As for yarn, I finished two more hats for my Zodiac Crafter Badge for ESK Yarnathon. Both of these hats are from the Forest Mosaic Hats pattern.
Yarn in this week: 0 yards
Yarn out this week: 284 yards
Yarn in YTD: 2511 yards
Yarn out YTD: 3813 yards
I have been checking in with quiltpaintcreate weekly where several us post a Stash Report each Sunday.

March One Monthly Goal
I have selected a lap sized quilt to finish this month. About ten years ago I had pieced a lot of Turning Twenty Again blocks. I pieced the blocks to make two lap sized quilts. One is done and ready for a charity donation. The second one is basted. It needs quilting and binding. I have been using my embroidery machine to do the quilting and have been very happy with the results.
