Just One Thing Challenge

Amy over at Amy's Creative Side challenged us last Monday to pick just one thing for the week and get it finished.  I decided to get the straight line quilting done with my walking foot finished on the four panels of my Lily's Quilts QAL quilt, all with the exception that I didn't go into labor.  Well here I am, still pregnant (38 weeks) and with proof through pictures that I accomplished my goal! Woohoo! 

The quilting went smoother than I expected, and I enjoyed it, which is always a plus.  Now I just have to do a tad bit of free motion quilting on the center circles, then start joining these panels via my (and Leanne's "She Can Quilt") method of quilt as you go!  I will be joining the four panels and then adding a border to the whole quilt when finished.  This project is my goal that I set in Rhonda's (Quilter in the Gap) Finish-Along, so I need to have it completed by March.  So far, I am right on target to actually wrapping this project up!  I'm going to try and get as much finished before I go into labor, wish me luck folks!  Thanks again Amy for hosting this challenge and helping me to reach my goals!  I always need that extra little push.

Congratulations on reaching your goal! The panels look fabulous - love Sherbet Pips! I stopped at one giant dresden in that QAL; I admire you for doing 4!

38 weeks! You could go anytime - good luck!

Oh, that is happy! The quilting looks great! I remember 38 weeks... it was all I could do to just sit on the couch. Good for you for getting stuff done! :)

Here's hoping that by now you have a healthy and happy new addition! :)
