Goal Setting and A Quilt Along

Ok, so its August and I must post about my August goal. 
Actually, I can't believe its August and I've linked up with 
A Lovely Year of Finishes for the past seven months, 
meeting my goal each month. 
It's been a wonderful accountability experience for me.  

So here's my August goal

Get the binding on this big, heavy quilt.  
It,s on the larger side of queen size and I anticipate some sore fingers. 
I'm thinking I'm going to have to take it slow.   

Also for August, the Star Surround QAL I joined is starting to roll. 
We've just begun making our half square triangles. 
I originally posted nine fabrics and planned on nine stars, 
but once I got started I decided I'm probably going to really love this quilt 
so I added more fabrics and went with 16 stars.

Come and join the Quilt Along
Its not too late!
You can make one large block or several smaller ones. 
It's your choice. 
Melissa has them all planned out beautifully!

Happy Quilting : )
