Goal for March

This is the time of month to figure out what my monthly goal will be.

 At first I was sure I'd go with appliqueing the next border on my AuntieGreen'sGarden. I even got it out and ready to go....

I have a border started from a few months ago....not sure now if it's the top or bottom border....

....but, I've changed my mind. I'm going to try to finish the top for last year's Sarah Fielke BOM, Happy Days. Her new BOM has just started and I'm hesitating starting it as I'd really like to finish Happy Days first.

 Here's a reminder of some of the blocks...
At the very beginning of this particular BOM we were told to make 24 6" Ohio Stars that were to be used as fillers. The idea was that we'd then have all the next ten months to get them done. How many had I completed?.....none!

 So I've started on them now....

My plan is to make six each of four different fabric choices. It shouldn't take too long. I think I only have three or four of the 12" blocks to make, then a bit of border work.

 So, not bad....in fact, do-able! Right???
I have no applique prepped at the moment....so sad. There has been absolutely no time to get any pieces ready.

 So that means pulling out an embroidery project....my lovely Flowerville....

Hmm, I think I'll actually try to finish this block before putting it away again!

 I am linking up with Lorna at Sew Fresh Quilts for Let's Bee Social, and with Patty at Elm Street Quilts for One Monthly Goal.

 I also linking with Mama Spark's World for WIPs With Friends.

    AuntieGreen'sGarden is stunning! Your Happy Days quilt is going to be equally lovely once it's all together.

    Your Flowerville block is so pretty. I love the variegated floss you're using!

    Pretty ambitious! Good luck! I have to keep busy hands, too, and fall back on an Embroidery piece when I have nothing else prepared. Love yours!
