February's ALYOF is finished...

February is almost over...where has the month gone?

I'm happy to be linking up  

to February's linky party for ALYOF

and I still have 2 days to finish another project.
I'm working on a few...hopefully I can finish another one with a ruffle.

Yippee...another UFO is finished.

The pattern is free on the Moda Bakeshop.

I quilted it with a Bubbles pantograph.

and backed it with more dots...I'm luving dots this year.

I will be making this quilt again...

as I really want to make it with a chenille backing.

Thank you Melissa and Shanna, 

I'm on track to finish 12 UFO's.
Check out the linky party here see all the February finishes.

Think spring...keep thinking it...think spring!!

ALYOF's goal setting party for February....

It's that time...to set my goal for the ALYOF February goal setting linky party. Last month I did succeed in finishing my quilt. 

...for February's ALYOF's goal setting party, I am going to machine applique the letters on this baby quilt, quilt it and bind it.  The words have been ready to applique for a few years. I am not sure if I will quilt it on the long arm or do a chenille backing.  I shared the chenille backing technique with Mama Spark a few years ago and she did a tutorial for the Moda Bake Shop.  The eat.play.sleep.repeat pattern was on the Moda Bake Shop too.

 

I have made this quilt a few years ago and loved how it turned out.

Other projects I hope to work on this month are:

• Something that has ruffles...I joined Sew We Quilt's blog hop...Think Ruffles.  I have a few ideas but I am still in the planning stage.
• I'm making a red and blue string quilt that will be going to the Veteran's Hospital in Ann Arbor MI.  Last week I came across a box with  some red and blue precut stripes...1" to 3" wide.  I have 36 blocks made and trimmed, now I have to decide how big to make the quilt. I think I will make 6 more blocks.  The blocks will finish 8".  They don't like the quilts to be too big.  
• I'm hoping to work on my Michelle Ridgway project...there is a peek on this post. 

I am linking up with Shanna and Melissa for their ALYOF February goal setting party.

I took this picture through our library window...
believe me I have seen enough of this white stuff
just wish it would go away!!
