Weekly Goals Again!

 It's Tuesday again and that means you get to check out if I met my goals for this week.  I only had two goals!

• Make another Bee table runner ✅
• Make another Lemon table runner✅

Here are they are, identical to the ones before, so you will have to take my word for it! 

Oh wait I can prove those are the new ones.  The following photo are the old ones with different backs!

I didn't list this one on my goal list last week, but I sure enjoyed stitching on it in the evenings.  This is a free design from Melissa at Pinker n Punkin Quilting and Stitchin'.  Thank you Melissa for your generosity.  It stitched up quickly this week while watching TV with the hubster;)  I then mounted it on a wooden easel sign from Hobby Lobby. I put magnets on the board and washers on the back of the stitchery and then I will be able to change it out for the seasons. 

Last Friday was my Birthday, thank you all for the Birthday greetings, I truly appreciated them!  I had a great week.  We got to watch the little granddaughter for a couple of hours on Tuesday and when daughter came to pick her up she brought me flowers and a box of Crumbl cookies-so good and the flowers smelled wonderful.

On Friday hubby made me waffles for breakfast, grilled hamburgers for dinner and we went on a wonderful afternoon bike ride. One of my brothers called, I video chatted with one of the grandsons, and our son called in the evening. Quite a full day:)

I really don't know what goals I want to set this week.  Oh wait I can think of a few. 

• quilt and bind a small lap quilt
• make a sunflower table runner
• make another bee table runner (yep I just sold the one above to a local friend)
• go camping with the grandsons:)

Okie dokie lets hop over to Texas Quilt Gals blog for To Do Tuesday. 

Weekly Goals- To Do Tuesday

 Another week has rolled around and a few more things have been accomplished!  It's time to check out my goals from last week.

• Finish Accuquilt Tutorial due on Friday ✅  Yes it is done but I can't show you until it hits their blog on June 4th.

• Make two table runners with new fabric I bought last week ✅  They are all done and all sold already! The first one with new bee fabric was kinda a request from a repeat customer.  She asked if I could do coasters with specific bee fabric. I didn't have it but I went shopping and found a different bee fabric.  Made it into this table runner and sent her the photo and she said it was perfect to go with her new bee decor and bought the runner 10 minutes later!  Here is the first runner of the new fabric.

And this is the second of a new fabric. So what's a girl to do with fabric with lemons but make a table runner out of it!  It was in my Etsy shop for two days and it sold also. I'm so happy that I can another since I bought fabric for more than one of them:)  I heard lemons were a new home decor item this year so I want to be prepared a little.  Both the bee and the lemon are from a GE designs table runner book.

• Quilt and bind a patriotic table runner ✅  Same design but different fabrics than previous patriotic runners. 

• Bind two donation quilts ✅  Finished and blogged about HERE.

• Make whatever else I wanted ✅  I guess that would be the three gingham table runners I blogged about for Table Scraps HERE

I met all the goals and still had time to visit the amish greenhouse with a friend. I was able to pick up the tomatoes and green pepper plants. And then it was time to turn my eye to some pretty posies.  When I saw this beautiful petunia hanging basket I was in love!  I wasn't planning on getting one, I usually just get the plants and make my own but they would take a long time to get even half this size.  This one is almost 24" across from bloom to bloom! And the price was really good at only $24.  

And this beautiful dahlia blossom is huge and has two more buds on it.  She is about 18" high now and almost full grown, so it says.

And the rest of the teeny posies I bought that day are all planted. Some will go on the front porch as they are shade plants and the rest on the deck which is the south side of the house.

I am ready for a lighter week, it's my birthday week.  If the weather would cooperate I would love to go for a bike ride someday. No big plans but it seems like we should do something as it's my 65th!  Good grief when did I get so old, LOL, I mean I still feel 35, haha.

So the only goals I am setting this week are:

• Make another bee table runner
• Make another lemon table runner

Hope you all met your goals for the week.   Set some new ones for this week and go link up with To Do Tuesday at Texas Quilt Gal.

Limes and Oranges

The lemon slice placemats needed their cousins done.  So I listened and got right to it.   Introducing 'Aren't you Orange'

 I have listed them in my Etsy shop selling them as a set of two.  

 I sew the orange print and white together, quilt them, then applique the orange wedges and bind them. 

 And the lime slices.

 I had fun pulling the dishes together to match the placemats. 

Don't they look cute all together!
