This was just the motivation I needed to do the binding of this Sporty Strippy Quilt. This not only completes my OMG but also goes for my PhD report. A two-fer-yahoo. I am off to check in with Anne-Marie
A place to chronicle my quilting and fiber journey with a little cooking and genealogy.

OMG February
I had decided this year to make a Rose of Sharon machine embroidery quilt. I had purchased a BOM several (many) years ago. It was for needle turn applique but then I found a couple of machine embroidery designs. After a few false starts I decided on an Anita Goodesign pattern. My goal this month is to make Block 1 using the fabrics from a BOM. I am going to link up with Stories from the Sewing Room.

For the past few years I have participated in a PhD (Projects half Done) challenge. I have made a little progress. But this is my year to make progress completing some of these projects. This is a screenshot of my list. I will add a few pictures of the quilts that I will be working on. I am going to link up with Ms P's blog, the hosts for this PhD challenge.

I have made my 2024 list of knitting, quilting and sewing goals. Participating in this challenge helps keep me focused. This month I have a knitting goal--a Musselburgh Hat. This is my first cast on for 2024. This is the first year in a million years that I don't have any knitting WIPs. I am going to link up with Stories from the Sewing Room
