One Monthly Goal - Another One Almost Like the Other One

You may be thinking, She does go on about this quilt!  It's beginning to feel to me like I may never finish it.  Either I'm a slow quilter, not devoting enough time to quilting, or I'm quilting it more heavily than other quilts.  No matter, I will eventually finish it.  


This quilt has
30 blocks
38 cornerstones
71 sashing/border rectangles

I've finished quilting
20 blocks (more than half)
20 cornerstones (more than half)
28 sashing/border rectangles (not yet half)

This month my goal is to hand quilt (at least)
6 blocks
5 cornerstones
8 sashing/border rectangles

I'm linking this post to One Monthly Goal September Link-up at Elm Street Quilts.  Thank you for hosting, Patty.  I appreciate it more than you know!

      Thank you, Julierose.  It's great to have this quilt on hand when I don't feel like doing much else.  At least I can hand quilt!

      Thank you, Janet.  I hope I can share some other things between posts about this.  At the moment it seems like the never-ending quilt.

    Hand quilting ALWAYS takes longer than I think it will. This quilt will be well worth all the time you're spending on it.

      Thank you, Robin  You're so right about it taking longer than I think it will, and I always seem to forget that.  I'm grateful I'm not the only one who underestimates the time it takes.

      Thank you for reminding me of that, Jennie.  I'm really grateful to have the time to work on this quilt.  I just wish I had more to show between posts about it!
