Wow! First Stitchy post of April. This move has definitely knocked me off my creative crafty horse 🐎. At least I did get some stitching done before the move and just this week finally got settled enough to get going again. I have a few challenges since I haven’t unpacked the craft/sewing studio yet. Let’s get caught up!

To Do Tuesday #138

Hello Everyone! I know it has been almost a month since I posted anything quilty. It has been a busy month. I finished packing up all my stuff and my cats and officially moved April 11th to Vancouver, Washington. I have not got to sew yet this month but this week I finally did some English Paper Piecing just because I needed it.

I am happy to be able to work on my cross stitch projects during this time of chaos called MOVING. LOL 😝 I have some things to share with you for this week as things are going very well. Not sure how April will go but March has been pretty darn good! Let’s take a look.

Starts & Finishes

I started my final project for March but haven’t finished anything new. I am close so next week I will share my final finish with you.

I don’t have a lot to share this week. I had my last Quilt Zoom day until after the move to Vancouver, Washington. Last week we started packing the sewing studio. On Monday I will be taking a trip to buy furniture and take some of my sewing stuff. We shall see how it goes.

I plan to linkup with Carol Schmilt at Quilt Schmilt for To Do Tuesday.

Hello Everyone! Sorry about missing last week’s blog. Just had a bad week so this week will be a lot since I did stitch everyday this past two weeks. LOL! 😝 Still working on the move which will be the theme for the next month.

Starts & Finishes

I am excited that I have already started five of the six planned starts for this month and one of the two finishes for March. After a mediocre February, I am feeling good about March. Let’s take a look:

START: WIPGO Project: Hello Summer by It’s Sew Emma (FQS)

I got a great start on this WIPGO project for the month. I am already 1216 stitches into my 1500 stitch WIPGO goal. Feeling pleased as ice cream over this one. I have been looking forward to starting this Stitch Quarterly project from a year ago. I love the vibrant colors and it is a delight to work on. In just two nights I am already over half done with this project. Just love stitching on this navy aida.

It has been two weeks since I shared with you. Last week got away from me. First I didn’t have anything to share because my machine ended up in the shop for a week. Since I was not sewing, I kind of just got out of my groove. I even have a second machine to sew with. I just didn’t.

Started backing the quilting/crafting stuff today. I spent some time this weekend, pulling together all the pieces and parts for several of the English Paper Piecing projects that were kept in two of my four rooms (dining room & Harry Potter closet). Neither of the these two rooms were single use rooms, so there was other things with sewing stuff. LOL!

Welcome back! This week has been a fairly productive week with all my cross stitch projects. I am looking forward to sharing what I worked on this week. So let’s get started!

February WIPGO Results

Welcome to this week’s quilty addition of To Do Tuesday. Only got one good day in this week which is more than I have had for several weeks. Let’s take a look.

Happy Friday! It’s a good day. My daughter who works with USGS is still employed. The next four years, no matter what happens, will be a roller coaster since Donald Trump does not like scientist especially those who work with the environment or climate. But this platform is not a political one and I certainly don’t want to make it so. Just please make sure you get all the facts before you speak.

On to more fun things like all my stitchy projects for this week. Let’s get started!

To Do Tuesday #134

Hello Everyone! I hope you are having a good week. Since my househunting trip I have been very distracted and totally lost my creative mojo. I still managed to work on a few things so I thought I would share the little I did this week.
