I was actually looking forward to turning the calendar over today. The first of the month is the release date for the UFO number we will be working on for the month. My #9 is the quilt I am making from the strips I won/was given at the Texada Retreat in November. Although the idea is to tackle unfinished items my list includes a few projects that have deadlines attached. #9 will be a new project for me and I’m ready for something new.

I had to make a quick trip to the Hall this morning but was home by nine. I volunteered to bring goodies to the Guild meeting tonight and since my cookies from the concession last weekend were given away I had to start fresh. I made a batch of oatmeal cookies and I’ll add a plate of cheese and call it done. The rest of the morning was taken up with getting reports written for the meeting.

I have two more Valentines ready for binding. I hope to start on the final project tomorrow. I thought there was some hand stitching involved with it but as I read my pattern this afternoon it is all pieced. Even with being away for the weekend I think I’ll still have time to finish it before the 14th.

Off now for some dinner and then my meeting. I’m hoping to get a bit of knitting time tonight after the meeting. I only have a few episodes of Once Upon a Time left and I’d like to get them finished before the weekend.
