Here's what was accomplished this week:
I still haven't started any new projects this year. I know... I'm shocked myself! Lorna's QA is tempting me and calling my name. I'm holding back (for now...) even though I printed the cute stocking pattern and put it in a binder...
I finished Stars Stripes & Other Things quilt. You can read about it here.
I completed the block for the week (4/25) for Pat Sloan's Winter Solstice QA.
Some of my sewing never gets a photo. But it happens a lot. Here's a picture of three things that needed repaired/hemmed/altered in some way...bottoms:
I finished all the hand stitching on my Candy Cane mini. Now for some simple machine quilting.
After making a purple Soul Searching block that I can't show because Julianne from Quilting with Calicos and I are swapping QUILT TOPS soon! I made some plus blocks with left over 2.5" strips for the RSC17.
I finished this little top. My neighbor gave me a kit:
On Monday I started Moving It Forward Monday --moving things forward on this project and made a building... no roof, no sides, no chimney...
But my moving it forward I just kept going on Tuesday. You see, the building above was keeping me from putting all these blocks together. Now about 1/3 of the quilt top is done!

Congrats! on making progress on a number of project. Kudos on NOT staring anything NEW!!! I'm working on UFOs this year, too.
