This was my Ready Set Goal project for Quilters Corner. Still need to embellish and finish.
One big accomplishment was all 100 of my 100 blocks 100 days challenge sponsored by Gnome Angel are done. The Kinship Fusion Pattern was a joy to work with. I hope to get these blocks together as a top before the year ends.
This is my October Ready Set Goal project to complete. I need to stitch around the applique, quilt, and bind. It’s going to take some late nights.
And shifting gears, this is my new Quarterly Goal. I started this over 10 years ago and stumbled over it looking for something else. It’s time this got done. This is my new Finish – A – Long for Quarter 4. I need to finish the blocks making sure there are no duplicate fabrics. Construct the top, quilt and bind. This is what I was doing instead of working my last Finish – A – Long for last quarter. It’s a little compulsive.
The stitching that I have done lately has provided me with comfort. My priorities the last couple of months have shifted, as they needed to. Hug the ones you love, and Peace, piece, Peace.

Good afternoon! I just love your last project – the one you stumbled upon looking for something else. I’m glad it is going to get the attention it deserves. I think it is really cute! A worthwhile list, all of these project are indeed. ~smile~ Roseanne
Oops – it posted before I got to add that I really love the Pickle Fish patterns and your blocks. I can’t wait to see that complete! ~smile~ Roseanne
I know that I’ll get back to the Prickle Fish. It’s worth the time, and I fall in love with it every time I see it.
Thank you Roseanne. When I was employed I started a ridiculous amount of projects before finishing many. I’m discovering all of these sweet pieces now that I am retired. I try to finish one before starting something new, although it doesn’t always work that way.
All of your projects are quite time consuming, but well worth it. I’m glad that quilting brings you peace at a time you really need it. Happy piecing!!
Hi there! Love the prickle fish..can’t wait to see it finished. Instead of finishing a old project, I did a rainbow “geese migration”. Just have to find time to quilt it. Really enjoy seeing all of your pics. Marilyn Engelking
Hi Diane! Love the Prickle Fish colors. What a challenge that one is! I can’t wait to see it finished. I fell off finishing ufos and sewed a rainbow geese migration, just have to get it quilted. Now back to my unfinished stack of projects, along with the children’s charity quilts at church. your Asian one is beautful, you have a way with colors. Hope everything in your life is going ok and you just need sewing therapy. Isn’t it great how it does that? Marilyn Engelking

Hi Marilyn! The Prickle Fish is not all that challenging. The paper foundations can get a little boring after a while, but I know I’m going to love the end result. I love you rainbow geese migration. I started a circular flying geese quilt in July when I went to Vermont and took a class with Sarah Bond. I’ll try to show that progress in a couple of weeks. The last few months have been emotional my father has taken his final journey. He passed on September 26 after battling cancer. He was such a trooper. But the end was a difficult thing to watch. Quilting has soothed me and allows me the chance to have enough solitude to move through my thoughts and feelings and sort things out. Although it was not a surprise, his lose was still poignant. Love to you! Diane
