May's Goal and some WIP updates

So April was a bust on finishing my April goal for the Lovely Month of Finishes.  But also for anything on my Q2 list as well.  So May means some serious time at the sewing machine and since it is getting nicer out (well, hopefully around here)  means more time outside.  So let's hope for the best!

So once again I putting the X and + quilt on the list to get done.  I have made some serious progress at least since last month.  The quilt is together and I only have 2 blocks left to make!  No border and I need to find a back this week in my stash.  So it is going to be done much sooner than later and this one will be the goal for May.

I did make some progress on my Stitch and Flip and all of the rows are together. Now for press and final assembly.


I was hoping my new machine would be here on Wednesday but only the new sewing table.  Still need to wait on that and I so wanted this week. This is worse than Christmas!  I am so anxious to have it! Oh well more time to get a few more things done.

I am linking up to Sew Bittersweet Designs - I really want to finish this one!  Also linking up to WIP Wednesdays, Let's Bee Social, and NTT.  I got it covered this week!

    Wow, your x and + quilt is looking so amazing! I just love that pattern. Are you getting a sewing table where the machine sets down in it......I am so jealous:)

    I like what's happening with your Stitch and Flip quilt. Are the triangles all the same or do they vary in size and shape? Your X and + quilt is very lively and fun.

    Good luck on your May goals. Is that partial row sewed on to your x and + quilt?

    Those X and + blocks are gorgeous and scrappy! Can't wait to see what you do for the backing. Waiting for your new sewing machine? Must be excruciating! Hope you soon get that happy mail!
