✔3. Catch up with the 2024 Temperature quilt.

✔4. Determine the fabrics for the 2025 Temperature quilt.

✔5. Determine the pattern for the 2025 Temperature quilt.

✔6. Continue with my knee PT rehabilitation.

Clue #1

✔10. Share the results of the Mt. Hood Quilters Guild show.

✔11. Make progress stitching in the ditch on a RSC project.

✔12. Document any play time with the two older granddaughters.

My favorite post of the month was Miss J's recap of the day we spent together. This knee recovery has tested me in so many ways. Not having to come up with post content was sure nice; however, spending time with the two oldest granddaughters was the best! All the food that they made was truly welcomed as I've done little cooking since my surgery.

Some of Clue #2

I'm finally almost comfortable to sit in my chair after having knee surgery October 1. The nerve pain continues to lessen so I'm hopeful that I will be able to concentrate and complete the software lessons. Being able to swim a couple times a week at my friend Wendy's pool has sure helped my
progress. 

My goal is to go back to work January 13 and to travel to London in March for the youngest granddaughter's third birthday. I feel like I'm at the point I was three weeks after my first surgery. I'm telling myself to stay the course and to get discouraged. . . .;BUT, I am getting tired of the pain!!!!

My December goals are:

1. Finish quilting the RSC project.

2. Complete making the blocks for the 2024 Temperature quilt.

3. Continue with the clues for Old Town Mystery which is Bonnie Hunter's 2024 mystery.

4. Watch for Modern Quilts Studio information release to sign up for the alphabet sew along and the Sweet Tooth mystery. Sign up when it is available!

5. Order the fabric for the Sweet Tooth mystery.

6. Finish the legend on Rita's Temperature quilt.

7. Complete the August bonus lesson and the September embroidery software lessons.

8. Order the fabric for the 2025 Temperature quilt.
