Finish-Along Goals Q4

It's time again for goals for this quarter.  Last quarter I completed 4 projects from my list of 7.  Not too bad, I think.  Maybe I should find someone who encourages some goal-making for home organization....of course, I probably wouldn't be quite so motivated to work on those goals.  :) 

1.  First of all is a quilt that I plan on making for my parent's cabin -- if I can finish it by Christmas it will be impressive.  If not, it will be a Mother's Day/Father's Day gift.  :)   

2.  A paper-pieced quilt for another sibling.  I only have a few more blocks.  Sadly, I ran out of gray background fabric (I am making it smaller than the original pattern....I underestimated the amount of fabric I would need!)  I have not been able to find the same gray since, and of course I don't know what the color number or name is.....oh bother.

3.  Started a quilt recently for a friend...hope to be done by December!

4.  Just need to add a border, prepare backing, and quilt this Shot Cotton quilt.  I am thinking I'll try Cotton Lawn or Voile for the back...sure wish I could find it in Local Stores!  

5.  I recently pulled out my "flimsies" (that is a completed quilt top, not quilted.)  I have several.  Many are quilt tops that I made and was disappointed in....it makes me sad to pull them out and see all the time that went into those, only to be dissatisfied.  I've decided to pull this one out and quilt it -- it is a smaller quilt, a good one to practice from free motion quilting on my own machine.

6.  Hot Pads for Christmas.  No picture here, but I plan on making 4 or 5 hot pads to give away for Christmas.  I have the pattern and will be making them scrappy.
