| ID Badge holder number 2 |
This badge is also a gift for a person who loves the color purple. Again, I sorted through my larger scraps and found enough fabrics to stitch it.
What is fun about giving these two as gifts is that every month that I see these ladies at the guild meeting, I'll be seeing these ID Badges too!
I used 1/4 yard of fabric for this project bringing my total to 4 1/2 yards of fabric used from my stash. I'm slowly chipping away at that 50 yard goal! This is finish number four for the quarter and it was goal number 2 on my 1st Quarter FAL list.

| Block fabrics |
On the quilting front, I've been drawing 8 1/2 inch circular designs. The block challenge for the CCQ guild is to make a circular block using the required Moda grunge and only Kaffe Fasset, Phillip Jacobs and Brandon Mabry fabrics. My thought was to take a traditional square block design and tweak the design to be circular. Some of my tries have looked so odd. . .meaning terrible!
I'm ready to try to draft a couple of designs. My progress has to be a secret until after the April quilt show. I can share the background fabrics and a couple of squares I was given for the contest. (I can use the squares or not! I haven't decided about using them yet!)
Oh and I thought that this year I would track how many people I've trained. . .30 in American Heart Association Basic Life Support CPR; 21 in American Red Cross BloodBorne Pathogens Training and 21 in a backboard inservice. The swimming lessons end next week so I won't count those numbers until the end of February. Still training 72 people in a month is a big number!!!

I knew you did training, but I didn’t realize how much. Congratulations on all that you do. I doubt you’d count it, but just think about all the things you’ve been training your grandkids to do,,, You are a very special lady in more ways than one! I look forward to seeing your ‘circle’ project.
Luann, someone asked me how many people I train in a year. . .well, I haven't tracked it so I figured I would! I've been working on my challenge project and haven't worked more on the challenge block. I'm rethinking my block plan already!!! Thank you for the kind words.
Very nice finish - I love purple! On behalf of the 2018 FAL hosts, thank you for finishing along with us!
Izzy, Thank you for stopping by to visit. I don't know why I kept putting off that project for so long. In the end, it wasn't nearly as difficult as I had anticipated!
