Goodbye, May

In May, I set out to
  • keep stitching the threadkeep--yes, the I have completed another section, just one to go!
  • keep stitching on the marquoir--yes, I finished section 5 and started section 6
  • make something for my dad's birthday--ran into a situation. I need a few feet of Petite Treasure Braid in PB07 and no one in this area has it. I think I'm going to take out the letters--again--and stitch them with a different metallic
  • start an anniversary present for the dude--I chose Erica Michael's "To Thee My Heart" and mounted it so I could start stitching
  • class quilt--I managed to do nothing on this quilt this month. I am putting it away until the new class in the fall. Remind me I am not in the class to start a new quilt. Do not let me get sucked in by a pretty new quilt or the possibilities of new fabric! I will need your help with that. Promise me!
June:
  • Finish the Threadkeep
  • Keep stitching on the marquoir
  • Finish the Las Vegas piece and mount it in a box before June 26
  • Finish the anniversary present for the dude
  • Make the Bermuda map pattern for the dude's birthday

Well done on your achievements, and good luck with the goals for June.

And yes, I promise to remind you about quilt class :o)

We will do our best to stop you from starting a new quilt, but how much influence will I have from Australia? I checked my stash but sadly I don't have that PB treasure braid:(. I hope you find a solution.

I should be able to get you PTB 07 to you via mail today, if you like.

I see that Donna has already offered, but I will check my stash when I get home for the PB07, as well.
