Did I make progress on my January 1, 2025 goals List this year? Well a little bit.
Let's take a lookie! 👀
On January 1st , I posted four quilts that I wanted to make progress on .
JANUARY 1st 2025 GOAL # 1
🧵1. Flaming Butterflies- It is my focus quilt for 2025. I want to have it finished this year.
SO HOW DID I DO?
⭐ Yeehaw! I get a golden star for I completed this goal. This quilt was made up of scrappy thrifted butterflies that I appliqued while in AZ. It is in memory of my sister.
My heart was all "a flutter" when I completed Flaming Butterflies this year. 🦋🦋🦋🦋

Even Blackie approved of my finish.

🧵2. The Easter Quilt. Do you remember that one? I did not mention it in 2024 because I was just plumb embarrassed that it is hanging on like a hair in a biscuit.😜😅 I started it ages and ages ago, and I still do not have the quilting finished. Oh boy, I am a Miss Slowpoke. -

| Progress at the beginning of 2025 |
SO HOW DID I DO?
⭐Hip Hip Hooray! I am on a roll! I finished it too! I get another gold star! Excuse me a moment while I break out into a happy dance. 💃💃💃
🧵3. Rainbow Sherbet- I would like to get 1/2 of it completed. It is indeed a slow stitch. I bought this quilt top at the World's Longest Yard Sale a few years ago.
SO HOW DID I DO?
❌ YIKES! A Swing and a Miss! Big Strike out on this one. I don't think I put in one single stitch on Rainbow Sherbet. Now what was wrong with me? 🥴😳
Hmmm ... THINK... THINK... THINK... Should Rainbow Sherbet move on to the goal list of 2026? We shall see. 🤔🤔🤔
I am biting my nails! How did I fare on Goal #4?
GOAL #4 as of JANUARY 1, 2025
🧵4. Mason Jar Blocks- I would also like to work on my Mason Jar blocks if I can find them. 😕😳😉🤨🔎 Hmm, where did those blocks disappear to?
❌ STRIKE TWO! Oh BUTTERSCOTCH! The mason jar quilt blocks are nowhere to be found. Hmmm, I may have to put a BOLO alert for these blocks. Has that stitching bandit been back to my house? Hee! Hee!
Well there you go.😀😏 Only half completed . Hmmph a score of a 50 - not very good in my eyes! But on the other hand , it is better than nothing. 😁
Oh well, I better skip to the quilt room and decide which quilty projects will be on my 2026 GOAL LIST.
Will you be making some quilty goals for yourself?
I will be gearing up for my New Year's Day start tonight. I will show it to you tomorrow.
How about we ring in the year with our fabrics flying and our needles on fire?! Sounds good to me. How about you?
Have a wonderful and safe New Year's Eve, Sweeties.
Happy Stitching and Quilting,y'all
