June's monthly goal

Unfortunately I didn't make much progress with my goal in May. I started quilting but strained my right shoulder and have stopped again for the moment. My goal for this month is the same as for last - to quilt the Do Good Stitches quilt the Comfort Circle group made in March.

Proof of progress: 

assembled, layered, pinned and partly quilted.

I'm quilting the sashing with, supposedly, a wishbone motif but the loops are turning out too rounded when I'm moving the quilt away from or towards me. I only seem to get it right when sewing from right to left. Still, it looks quite pretty the way it is.

It's not perfect; I blame the shoulder! However, more practice wouldn't go amiss!

I'm linking up to Elm Street Quilts for One Monthly Goal in June.

Happy sewing,

Marly.

I hope the shoulder continues to feel better. Glad I'm not the only one to have missed my May OMG. :-)

I hope your shoulder is feeling better soon!

The backing fabric is the perfect choice for that quilt.

All the best with achieving your goal.

I love how you call it a "supposedly" wishbone design. I think I'll start doing that. It looks pretty good to me. Keep feeling better!
