So my February Key Goal is to quilt Dylan's Hawthorn Quilt. See other participants monthly goals on Elm Street Quilts One Monthly Goal February Link-up.
The Hawthorn Quilt is from Sharon Holland's book Utility Quilts and is big bold blocks with strong fabric choices. I love it.
The backing is pieced from an assortment of stash fabrics... including a little applique block Dylan designed and we put together about 8 or 9 years ago (and it's finally finding a home).
January had a mini goal to get this all basted... which was done. Now to quilt. As I am a notoriously slow quilter... getting this finished will be a real challenge.
On a side note, I have chosen the Patchwork City quilt top to baste this month... and so the cycle somewhat carries on... fingers crossed!
On another side note, I have found my WIP list enormously useful as far as plotting which quilts have backing fabric... and taking advantage of fabric specials as I find suitable matches. This also goes for binding options. AND also choosing what project to work on next. With a free day on Friday after completing everything on my January to do list I chose the Avalon Quilt to sew together the blocks. This quilt was chosen as with 16 blocks it was relatively quick, and it was started in December 2012... high time for it to get finished.
Yay... another top to add to the quilting pile!

You really are super dooper organised - good luck with getting your quilting done this month. I like the way you have basting as a mini goal to get it ready for the next month. Very wise. Oh and congratulations on the win!!
Maybe Dylan will be the nagging influence to get his quilt finished! And congrats on the fabric win. I hope it is something worthwhile and useful.
Oh my, just loving your Little Piggies!
Pretty quilts, enjoy the quilting!

I really hope you are coming along nicely at getting your One Monthly Goal quilted! It is a beauty and has a lot of space for gorgeous quilting. I too am slow at machine quilting. There are just too many options in quilting patterns and I get a little bored with it.
As claimed by Stanford Medical, It's in fact the ONLY reason women in this country live 10 years longer and weigh an average of 42 lbs lighter than we do.
(And really, it has totally NOTHING to do with genetics or some secret-exercise and really, EVERYTHING around "HOW" they are eating.)
P.S, I said "HOW", not "what"...

Did you know there's a 12 word sentence you can say to your man... that will induce intense emotions of love and impulsive attractiveness for you buried within his chest?
That's because hidden in these 12 words is a "secret signal" that fuels a man's instinct to love, look after and protect you with his entire heart...
12 Words Will Fuel A Man's Love Impulse
This instinct is so hardwired into a man's genetics that it will drive him to try better than before to love and admire you.
Matter-of-fact, triggering this dominant instinct is so essential to getting the best ever relationship with your man that as soon as you send your man one of the "Secret Signals"...
...You'll immediately notice him expose his soul and heart for you in such a way he's never experienced before and he will distinguish you as the only woman in the world who has ever truly fascinated him.
