To Do Tuesday #47

Hi Everyone! Hope your Mother’s Day was good. I spent it with my sister and brother-in-law. It was a great day with great food. I will be linking up with Carol again at Quilt Schmilt for this week’s To Do Tuesday linky party.

To Do Tuesday #10

It’s been what I would consider a fairly productive week. While I did not quilt every day, I did little things on almost everything on my list as well as finish binding my Over & Under Quilt from 2017. I am a happy quilter!

To Do Tuesday #9

Whew!  Went to post on April 5th and the website was not working.  I tried a few things but needed to get ready for my vacation in Hawaii.  Finally today, I found the right number and the right person and we seem to be back in business baby! 

Honestly, I didn’t do a lot since I was in Seattle April 1st – 4th and Hawaii April 11th – 18th.  I took stuff with me, but we were having way to much fun.  I hope to post a travel post soon.

I saw there was two fabric stores in Kauai and I made it to one and purchased border and backing for two future Hawaiian quilts whose charm packs I picked up 4 years ago in Maui.

To Do Tuesday #8

How has your week been? Mine has been fairly productive. I worked on everything from last week’s list except one thing and even finished a lot. Feeling good. Last Friday was my Quilting Zoom Day with quilty friends. It was awesome and so motivating. Sometimes I wish we did it more often than once a month.

My orange kitties have been very helpful this week. Sitting on projects while I try to sew. Stealing my thread spools and pins. Even running around with thread and needles and scaring the crap out of me. Even now Simba is petting me while I am attempting to type. He has already walked across the keyboard multiple times. He is such a sweety when he is feeling helpful.

To Do Tuesday #3

How quickly the week has come to an end. I got my weeks mixed up. Last week had a holiday weekend with a Sister Day, but no Zoom Quilt Day. This week is the Zoom Quilt Day. (Can you see me rolling my eyes?) Even with the mix up, I tackled some big projects and made some nice progress.

2022 New Year … New Goals

It’s been a while since I posted anything. The past summer found me on the road more than not. Once again, I had computer issues again so here we are more than six months later. I had to switch over to my laptop as Word Press is no longer working on my iPad which makes it a challenging process for sure.

Long Arm Goals for 2022

During 2021 I retired and purchased myself a new long arm machine. It took forever to be delivered and when it was finally delivered, I ended up on the road for six weeks. I got home and I finally did my first quilt. Then Gammill changed the distribution and consumer channels so that means I had no one locally to get help from.
