Spring Challenge

DH stained the gazebo, and it looks really nice! He also stained the wooden bench and two tables. He got the shed partially done before the sprayer quit on him.

Currently working on the second sleeve of the cardigan. Need to knit the button band, sew the cardigan pieces, sew the buttons, and wash and block. Won't finish it in the next 36 hours so it's now June's Finish It project, May's Finish It is a knitted pair of slippers I knitted and donated to a DV survivor in the mutual aid community. Fabric arrived for the Spider quilt backing arrived yesterday. I have family commitments this weekend so I'll baste it next weekend.

Working on the Summer to do list, and figuring out the July Finish It project since it needs to be small and airline friendly.

I still have a lot left on my list, and I'm quite sure I won't get everything done by the solstice. I have made some progress though:
Make all the ornaments for the December fair (studio prefers not to get inundated with ornaments to be fired late in the year) - made quite a few, but not all
Start seeds - done and most are in the ground
Paint 1 interior room (would like to get the whole interior painted within the next year) - not done
Wash windows, screens, curtains, shades - completed as of yesterday
Clean closet & rotate seasonal clothing - done
Make cover for bedroom radiator -will probably defer until fall/winter
Clean out shed - done
Garden clean up (we've been "leaving the leaves" this year, so will hold off on this for as long as we can stand it) - mostly done
Order and spread mulch - might skip it this year, haven't decided
Regular seasonal stuff: connect hoses, hang hammock, set up fountain, plant containers, change out storm/screen doors
Stain gazebo (or more accurately, ahem, remind/encourage DH to stain gazebo) - done
Get a key lock box from fire department for Mom's house (apparently this will require multiple follow-up calls since person who handles this doesn't respond, so annoying) - not yet
