My Annual Goals are:
✒1. Have a net loss of 100 yards of fabric from my stash.
✒2. Finish six UFOs

| Challenge, Sweet Tooth binding and Sweet Additions fabric purchases |
Net loss/gain this month: 20 3/4 yards
Net loss/gain year to date: -24.25 yards
My July goals were:
✔1. Make the Rainbow Scrap Challenge blocks. This month the color is purple!
✔2. Make some 2025 Temperature quilt blocks each Friday of the month when possible.
✔3. Continue with the knee rehabilitation. Last May, I was able to schedule two PT appointments.
✔4. Work on Grassy Creek at least twice.
✔5. Figure out the back and binding for Sweet Tooth.
✔6. Begin quilting Grow. I scheduled several days to start; but, it just didn't happen. I got sidetracked with quilting Stitch by Stitch and by the scraps from the Sweet Tooth mystery.
✒8. Spend 15 minutes before each sewing session processing scraps--prewashing, cutting, etc..I started well; but, lost momentum. I need to rethink the scrap processing as I am easily distracted seeing SHIBs! Also, while prewashing is necessary, doing it with small pieces takes time and patience.
My August goals are:
1. Share my progress with the Triple Treat Leader Ender project.
2. Make the Rainbow Scrap Challenge blocks.
3. Sew more 2025 Temperature quilt blocks.
4. Make progress on Grassy Creek.
5. Document gifting a quilt to my niece for her wedding.
6. Begin documenting my trip to London, England.
7. Document Rita's Rhododendron Trail becoming a top.
8. Bind and label Sweet Tooth.
9. Make progress on Stitch By Stitch.
10. Document one QoV presentation.
11. Make progress quilting Grow.

You did a fantastic job on checking off your July goals, Terry. It looks like another busy month ahead. Are those the fabrics you are auditioning for the binding or will you be making a scrappy binding? Darling either way. Hugs and Blessings.
Lol, I am also easily distracted from scrap processing by other projects that are unearthed when doing that! That's a pretty pile of solids you show in your first photo- do you have plans for that? Lots of good checkmarks for July, Terry!
