May OMG Goal 2019

Posted on May 7, 2019 | 19 comments

Remember the Aunt Bea Parlor embroidery quilt?

Yeah…it has been a while.

I think that October 2017 was the last time that I shared anything about it.

I put the quilt on a hanger and left it in the closet. Why, I wonder?

I may have been having a border issue, as in…my border wasn’t fitting the way the pattern said. Maybe I got frustrated.

And, no maybes about it, when I am done with this project, I will not be cutting triangles for borders before the top is sewn together.

For now, I will be satisfied to lose points and get the top done!

So that is my goal for May.

I am linking up with Elm Street Quilts to keep me accountable and motivated!

April OMG 2019 Update

Posted on April 24, 2019 | 17 comments

I kept my goal very simple for April for a great reason…I am happily sitting in a glider this morning at my son’s house enjoying vacation with family.

I will also be able to visit with my daughter and her fam during this vacation!

So, so happy!

My goal was to sew a pair of pajama bottoms. Done!

They are a little big, so will take in the seam allowances next time (Yes, I did this time, but not enough). They are also so soft and comfy. Love them!

I am linking up with OMG at Elm Street Quilts. It is inspiring and encouraging to see what projects others are making progress on!

April OMG 2019

Posted on April 1, 2019 | 16 comments

“Keep your face to the sun and you will never see the shadows.” ― Helen Keller

Work hours have increased; it is time to get outside and play in the garden; and I do have vacation time coming. It is a lot to pack into the month.

So, I am going to keep this month’s OMG very simple, but even so, I am not sure that I can complete it.

I purchased this cute llama print a couple of months ago (or so).

When I get home from work, I love to get comfy in a t-shirt and pajama bottoms, so I intended to make pajamas with it.

I have the pieces cut out…all two of them. Ha, ha! Not even any pockets!

What is your OMG for April?

Let’s all link up with OMG at Elm Street Quilts. We can inspire and support one another as we work on our projects!
