If you haven't already heard, Melanie Meyer @mellmeyer has taken over the quarterly quilting goal check-in link up party previously posted by Yvonne Fuchs @quiltingjetgirl. I plan to keep checking in quarterly, but in a simpler format than years past. Melanie suggested reflecting on our Q1 2026 quilting progress, so I'll keep it to that.
January – March 2026 Quilts
It's actually been a pretty productive quarter, which is great. For one, I participated in several groups and workshops that resulted in quilts in a variety of sizes.
- Improv for Everyone :: Fat Curves and Skinny Lines workshop with Maria Shell @mariashellquilts
- Building an Improv Toolbox workshop with Sarah Goer @sarahgoerquilts
Happily, I finished the 2025 Seattle MQG BOM with the help of longarm quilter Dionne Hersch @dinglebobbins. That sure felt good!
And I made a wall hanging for our son to (hopefully) hang in his office.
Finally, I made a scrappy quilt, my first quilt finish for the 100 Day Project/AKA 100 Days of Scraps.
Not only did you make lovely quilts this quarter, but you got a chance to go on retreat with friends! I look forward to seeing how your Pantone challenge quilt comes together and what you'll be inspired to make in Q2. :)
ReplyDeleteWelcome to the party! And you had so many beautiful quilt finishes this quarter. It sure must feel very celebrate-y to you - especially as they came of other "parties" ;) And how come I missed that beautiful calendar quilt. I will directly jump over and check it out!
ReplyDeleteAll the best for your second quarter. Very excited to see your Pantone quilt. Most of all I wish you lots of joy! xo
