I am still struggled to stay on top of things. Though it's seem the world is struggling, so I am not alone in this daily struggle of life. I have had some blissful moments at the machine, though nowhere near long enough. I had big hopes of get my Glacier Star quilt to top stage before the end of July. It did not happen, bur the centre is all together. That counts for something, There was progress, but not quite enough of it.
We specialise in patchwork and quilting, small projects to large projects for beginners to advanced skill levels. Cynthia's Ark runs regular weekly workshops on a variety of projects and techniques. We would love to have you join us on this crazy fun adventure.

One Monthly Goal - May's Goal Completed
This month I had a two part goal to complete. You can see my goal setting here.
Part one of this month's challenge was to sew three sections together to form a diamond. This was the easy part of the goal, so this was easily achieved.
My completed diamonds and laid out as the centre of my quilt.Part two of this month's goal was to piece the next section of my Glacier Star. This part was more time consuming but I got there just in time. These sections will fit over the top of the diamonds.
I am very pleased how they came out. I am looking forward to the next section, which I managed to cut ready to sew.
I have linked my post with Elm Street Quilts post, so pop over and check out how everyone did this month.
Until Next Time

One Monthly Goal- May's Goal
Things are crazy here and I want time to work on my unfinished projects but it is not working out for me. So I am set myself a goal that hopefully will be achievable in the sense I need to do it before the next workshop to stay ahead of my students. So far this year I have been doing ok with this one, so I am planning to keep it that way.
So that plan for May is to join these sections together.
That is an easy task I hear your say and yes it is, only 16 seams to sew. That is only part 1 of my plan. I also want to complete the next section which has two section in it. It is the spikes that run along the joined sections.
So there is a bit of work in this month's goal. Though it was tempting to only set the first part for the month. That would have been really cheeky of me.
