Last month I decided to join in with a number of other bloggers and write myself a "To Do" list for June. I decided that each month I would try my hardest to get as many crossed off the list as possible. So how did I go? Well I am pleased with my result considering that our lives have been turned upside down pretty much throughout June. In attempting to rid myself of so many UFO's I decided that each month I would add one to my list in the hope that I could actually get some finished ! Well I am pleased to report that I have finished Amy's post & rail quilt.
It has returned from being quilted and now just needs it's binding sewn on. Amy is thrilled with it and I am pretty pleased to be able to remove it from the pile of UFO's.
I also managed to finish 2 more blocks for my Tis The Season Quilt. I haven't put the borders on them yet put they are on my list for the weekend.
I made progress with Block 2 of "Berries & Blueberries"
I am really enjoying this one - The birdies are just so cute.
And Block 4 of Henrietta's Whiskers just needs 20 minutes spent on it which I will finish tonight.
Block 1 of my "It's The Little Things That Matter" BOM Quilt is finished and Block 2 is underway.
3 Items were finished for Magazine Commissions
Including this "Easy Peasy" Chenille Quilt
Which used up some of my treasured Grand Revival stash - It was so hard to actually cut into it - But I was pleased with the result.
I also finished this little throw cushion as well as a kitty cat Tote bag and Cushion which I donated at the last cat show but forgot to photograph. So I am not going to be too hard on myself as I set the bar pretty high knowing that I wouldn't achieve the entire list but it really did help with motivation so if you are thinking about doing it too - Go for it !
I am now off to write up July's list on my side bar - The hardest thing is going to be choosing which UFO is next to go !!

You have done very well, I have had so much time and didn't get much done.

You're a machine Fee! All lovely, better get that binding on for Amy's quilt, she's had to wait awhile!!
Girlfriend, you AMAZE me!! You can give yourself a very big pat on the back (and perhaps a day spa trip!) for all that effort.

Everything is so pretty. The little bluebird made me smile though - I just love bluebirds.
Oh my goodness Fee, such eye candy here today - look at all you accomplished - you're amazing! Everything is so lovely!!!!!!
MMMmmm lovely colours in the post and rail quilt - Lucky Amy to get to keep snug under this one.
Gorgeous progress on all your blocks.
That's certainly a haul Fiona....well done. I'll be keeping an eye out for your Chenille quilt...very pretty!!
Cheers....Jane.
Well done Fee you are flying with all your projects. I don't no which one I like the most they are all beautiful.
I love all your work, so beautiful. I was looking at all your BOM's as I am doing some of the same ones. 'It's The Little Things That Matter' is one I would like to do, not that I need another BOM to do. Where did you find this little gem or is it one of yours that I have missed?
