Chookshed Challenge report - May 2025

  

(Here's my challenge list at the end of April:
  1. complete strip sets for blue strip twist quilt
  2. quilt and bind A's quilt (March)
  3. second backstitch embroidery kit (for while I'm travelling)
  4. quilt and bind S's quilt
  5. quilt and bind R's quilt
  6. continue flower blocks for J's quatro quilt (January)
  7. complete bunny Fat Quarter Mixer quilt top
  8. start on Amelie's quilt
  9. backstitch embroidery kit (for while I'm travelling)
  10. quilt and bind Mason's quilt (February)
May's number was #8 - and my rulebreaking planning is working out as I worked on Amelie's quilt in early March.  I reported on the quilt in https://patchmaggie.blogspot.com/2025/04/more-happened-in-april-than-i-realised.html

So far - so good.  

For June, Deana has pulled the number #5.   
My number #5 is to quilt and bind R’s quilt. 

So this is how my challenge list looks so far. 
  1. complete strip sets for blue strip twist quilt
  2. quilt and bind A's quilt (March)
  3. second backstitch embroidery kit (for while I'm travelling)
  4. quilt and bind S's quilt
  5. quilt and bind R's quilt
  6. continue flower blocks for J's quatro quilt (January)
  7. complete bunny Fat Quarter Mixer quilt top
  8. Start on Amelie’s quilt

No photos in this post as I’m travelling and find it hard to update posts on my phone or iPad. 

Chookshed Challege 2025 - Deana from Dreamworthy Quilts is one member of the Chookshed Quilters.  Each month in 2025, Deana will select a number from one to ten and quilters work on the project with the corresponding number from their own list.  The main rule for this challenge is that there are no rules, which should work for me as I am away for large chunks of 2025.  For example, if the number six is chosen, and that particular month is a bit tricky to work on that numbered project from my list, I can change the project!  And a goal could be just making minimal progress on a particular quilt.  I like those sorts of rules.

July 2025 - what a busy time I've had!

A little bit of shopping was done while I've been travelling the last three months.  This will mean my fabric tally will not be looking ...
