Thoughtful Tuesdays. To Do Tuesdays - Yo-Yos, 4 Patches and More - Oh My!

Thoughtful Tuesdays
Don't you just love when God moves in a seemingly impossible situation and shows us just what we can achieve through His strength?  

 A loved one achieved a very  important milestone this week.  I was so proud of him.  What he thought was impossible, became possible.  
What he thought would be hard, was easy for God.  On her blog Crystal shared a story about how God gave her to ability to do something she never thought she could do.  Now, to be honest, as I re-read her post, a smile crossed my face as I'm not sure I would have been as calm as she.  But with God, all things are possible!   
Take a look at her post and be reminded that what we think is hard is oh so easy for our Father!  
Last Week's List 
As a stomach bug stole three days from me, the last two goals will be moved to this week.  I'm pretty happy with my progress, though!  
1.  Make at least 3 yo-yo flowers to add to my quilt. Tada!
So far so good!  I believe I've found my groove - 3 yo-yo flowers a week is working!  

The "Yo Yo Bag" is filling up!
2.  Finish up the blue flowers for my afghan - the Maria's Blue Crayon Spring Granny Afghan Crochet.  I finished the purple ones instead!


3.  Sew a few more of fun four patches inspired by Amanda Jean at Crazy Mom Quilts. Done and Done!  I shared them here!

4.  Make labels for the Construction quilts!  Here's the one for my grandson!  This will be added to this week's list.  
5.  Contact the organizations to give out the drainage bags.  This will be added to this week's list.

This Week's List:
1.  Make at least 3 more yo-yo flowers to add to my quilt.  
2.  Finish up another color of flowers for my afghan - the Maria's Blue Crayon Spring Granny Afghan Crochet.  
3.  Sew a few more of fun four patches inspired by Amanda Jean at Crazy Mom Quilts. 
4.  Make labels for the Construction quilts!  
5.  Contact the organizations to give out the drainage bags.  
6.  I would like to add the pillowcases and my RSC Challenge quilt from 2017 to next weeks list.  What better way to remember than to put them on To Do Tuesday's list?  :)

    It is a good thing to have goals! God CAN help us because He can do the impossible. I love the scripture, I can do all things though Christ which strengthen me! Phil. 4:13

    Especially love the purple yo-yos!

      Thank you! Yes! I'm loving seeing a bag fill up with parts! My daughter made the bag for me and I'm so glad she gave it a vinyl cover!

      Oh yes! I'm so so much better! I think yo-yos will be in my future for a while! They are so fun! Soon, I should have a nice balance of darks/lights to start putting the quilt together - well at least a few rows of it! :)
