Siggy Blocks and other randomness

I finally assembled my 101 blocks for Rachel's Modern Siggy Swap.


This picture is before threads being clipped.  Now for the hardest part....signing them.  My handwriting isn't the neatest.  The fabric used for my blocks is Moda's Eden.

Sherri listed her February quilting goals on her blog the other day.  I'm thinking I could use some motivation and direction right now, so I am doing the same.



#1) Sign all 101 siggy blocks and put in the mail.


#2) Decide on Liberated Amish Quilt Challenge design. (My book should arrive today.)  
#3)  Actually start working on this quilt project.



#4)  Complete at least one Dear Jane block - probably liberated.



#5)  Complete this charity quilt.
#6)  Make small Valentine quilt.  (The picture is in my head.)



#7) Make this quilt.

I'll let you know how setting these goals help me.  I am a procrastinator and work better under pressure with a deadline.

Have an amazing day!!!

  2. Go on flickr and read up about signing the blocks. Rachels guidance of buying the fine point sharpie is what saved my sanity. I also taped each one so they didn't move around.

    You have a great set off goals. My mother always said plan mopre than you can get finished because you might surprise yourself.

  7. You've got me thinking about that Dear Jane quilt.....it might be a nice long term project. State Fair, that's the first time I've seen that pattern and I like it! Good Luck with all your goals, not to be a Debbie Downer, but you've only got 2 weeks and 4 days left in this month!
