March goals and April Challenge

Well ..... March flew by didn't it!  We are almost at the end of the month and what do I have to show for it?  There have been doctor appointments, physio, snow shovelling, a bit of babysitting and some days of just sitting and watching t.v. or reading a book.

This top for one is done!  All from scraps except for the borders.  Yeah for me as I will never have to touch those scraps again. Part of my goal for April is to make a few more blocks from scraps.  This brings a total of 5 tops to go to my lovely LAer.  Three more backings need to be made and some frankenpieced batting need to be done.  

Row 10 is finally done on my Chevron Log Cabin quilt-as-you-go quilt.  I will be working on Row 11 for my April challenge.
A bit of secret stitching has been done.  I joined the Humble Quilts doll swap again this year.  It has been a couple of years since I last participated and it is time again this year.  Nothing more on this until reveal time.  This little mini has to be my goal to finish in April as deadline for mailing is May 3.  Must, must get this done on time.
We have been enjoying a spat of nice weather lately (with a few snow storms added in to remind us we are still in March).  Starting this afternoon around 3 p.m., we are due for a major snowstorm.  Whoever is responsible for this forecast has a sense of humour.  Where I live (in North Bay), we are in the red sector (at the top) and that means 3-4 bags of chips and 10-15 drinks over the course of the next few days.  Yesterday, I went grocery shopping and ran other errands.  My pantry is stocked up and my snowblower is ready!  LOL
Cherish your day, cherish your life, cherish your country (and my country will always be CANADA)!

Both your latest quilts look so good. I love the colours. It was nice to see you on Zoom. Stay warm during the latest weather event. I hope you stocked up on chips and drinks when you went grocery shopping.
