Friday Finishes -- and Happy February!

I can't believe February is already here! Amazing how the weeks fly by when you give yourself loads of things "to-do!" Again, I almost finished everything on my list for the week. Almost. Plus a thing or two I hadn't planned on, so I guess that's fair.

  • Straighten the basement, get the TV hooked up and get on the treadmill. (My excuse is that I'm waiting for my hubby to hook up the TV. Realistically, I could probably do it myself if I tried. Mostly, I just don't really want to get on the treadmill. LoL)

  • Clean out the front hall closet. (What an amazing improvement. We can all hang our coats up now! Just wish I had taken a "before" picture... it was BAD.)

  • Personalization on pink ragtime quilt.

  • Make another pink ragtime quilt for shop.

And this was not on my list, but since I was kind of on a roll with the flannel quilts, I also finished one that's a little more boyish.

I really need to focus a little more on making things for boys. I have a strong tendency toward pink fabric, for some reason. Strange, considering I'm Grandma to two adorable boys. Then again, maybe that explains it. As adorable as my boys are, I just get cravings for frilly pink things!

Case in point, I went out shopping today -- not for fabric, mind you -- and somehow came home with this:

All flannels, and notice how they are mostly PINK? LoL Well, it's something to work on...

I feel really bad that I've linked for the past two weeks with other Friday finishes, but haven't been around to visit everyone like I usually do. I've been so crazy busy, I just haven't found the time. But I feel like if you're going to join a linky party, you should follow through and show up for the party! So I'm going to try again this week, and make it a priority to get around and visit everyone at Crazy Mom Quilts "Finish it Up Friday" and TGIFF, hosted this week by Quokka Quilts. Looking forward to some inspiring finishes!

I have a thing for pink, frilly things too, Heather! Luckily I'm mama to two girls so I have an excuse. The quilt is cute. I'm sure Harper Marie will be one happy girl!
