Monday Morning Star Count 2014/43

Wow!  I had the busiest week ever, but so every free moment I worked on EPP.  So excited that I finished 5 flowers.  I only have 9 more to go!  I am going to try to complete the last 9 before Thanksgiving :)  then on to the background hexagons!  And I have to start thinking about backing and whether I should hand quilt....so much left to do!  Any suggestions...machine quilt or hand quilt?

Linking up with Jessica at Life Under Quilts for Monday Morning Star Count!  Hope you all have a wonderful week!

Monday Morning Star Count 2014/42

Whose idea was graduate school anyway?  :)  That's what I think when I see my EPP sitting beside me and I have to research and write papers!  I know it will be worth it in the end, but I really, really, want to stitch!!  LOL!

Well, I did manage to complete 4 papers this week and squeezed in stitching for a mental break. This is the best I have been able to do for a while.  I completed 3 flowers and counted up what I have left to complete.  So...I have 13 flowers left to complete!  Woo hoo!!  Then I can focus on basting background pieces and putting it all together.  This is my first EPP project  and I started it in July 2013 and I am anxious to put it together :)

Here is this week's progress:

So fortunate to be a part of Monday Morning Star Count!  Thank you Jessica at Life Under Quilts!  Thank you all for your wonderful support too!  I love watching all your progress and projects even when I cannot find time to stitch!
