ALYOF March Goal

After much indecisiveness, I have settled on my March goal.   I have so many projects going it was difficult to pick just one - so I won't.  I have several...first I want to sew a king size quilt-top together. I have selected a pattern called,  "A Box of Chocolates" by Jeanette Sherrick of the Christmas Goose Quilt Shop in  Las Vegas, NV.  Here are the fabrics I have chosen.








21 fabrics 
13 4 1/2 inch squares from each fabric  
26 41/2 x 1 1/2 inch rectangles and 26 6 1/2 x 1 1/2 in rectangles from each fabric.
For some reason I am having difficulty uploading a picture of the pattern.  I spent most pf the day 
cutting out fabric and I have made only a small dent in the hundreds if shapes needed to actually
begin sewing and this was using my Accuquilt Go die cutter!!!  I'll be back at it tomorrow.  I have taken 
a few days off for a quilt retreat that was later postponed :(.  However the great gals at the Christmas Goose
have allowed me to come and sew with them and Jeanette and I are having our own "Quilt Retreat."  I love my sewing room at home and it is always nice to sew with friends.  Until next time.  Shirley
