February Quilting Goals Almost done

 2 out 3 got completed and I'm close to being finished the 3rd one.

Love Entwined makes a really good project for working on during zoom calls.  Two vases are now ready for flowers. I got all of the satin stitching and applique done on the blocks for the guild BOM.  I still need to finish piecing the house blocks.  A bit of blue for the sky and some green underneath

Longtime Gone is a monthly project.  Elaine assigned the Jacobs ladder block and the 9 courthouse steps for this months work.  Jacobs ladder is cut out here and ready to stitch together.  This is the most important one to get finished as I don't want to get to the summer and find this has become a UFO. I started Love Entwined the year that Esther released the pattern as a fre
