November ALYOF goal

Tick - Tick- No Excuses

If ever there was a project that had absolutely no good reason for taking so long, the one is it.  My son chose the design and approved the fabrics for his bed quilt so long ago I can't even remember.

Progress at October Retreat 

I've worked diligently on it at two retreats and several sessions at home.  The pattern is not too difficult for me, I like the fabric, I really WANT to gift it to him - none of the typical stumbling blocks apply here.

Parts from March Retreat

There has been progress.  It has rolled from month to month and although I feel a little like the quilter who cried wolf,  it is my official ALYOF project for November.  Goal Setting Linky party is open at Fiber of All Sorts and Sew BitterSweet Designs. 

We are after all headed rapidly to a new year and it will NOT be on my 2016 Resolution List.  Yup, you guessed right, it was included in this post from January 2015

Initial Pull

I've decided to keep the fabric almost exclusively Parson Gray, mixing from various lines rather than the scrappier pull shown here.  Framing it in a mid-to-dark border is also on the redesign plans and not just because I want to finish but because I think he will like it that way.

As usual, I'm strategically selecting on item from my 2015 FAL Q4 list as well.

Wish me luck and hop around to cheer on the other participants too!
