Quilts & Adventures

Floss Friday #194

Hello Stitchy Friends! Last post of August. Can you believe it! The week has gone by quickly. As usual, my expectations were much higher than my time to complete those expectations. But I made a nice dent. So let’s take a look at this week’s projects.

Starts & Finishes

One! Just one new start with plans for so many more. LOL! My grandiose plans 🙄 have not come to fruitation this month. Yet, I can’t regret being an optimist. So let’s take a look at what I did get started.

Hello Stitchy Friends! Wow! Summer is just zooming by. I can’t believe we are already down to just a week and a bit left of August. Then we will be into all. I hope you have had a great summer.

Starts & Finishes

I did have a finish this week, but no new starts. I have a list of five things I wanted to start this month. This next week, I had better jump on that!

To Do Tuesday #193

Welcome back Quilty Friends! This week has been another busy week (surprise!) A couple of trips over the river to one of my local quilt stores. Once to pick up my machine for a Workshop on Saturday. Then again yesterday to pick up a foot for my machine that I had ordered but wasn’t there yet. Last Thursday was a quilt guild meeting. Sunday ended up being just a reading day to unwind from a crazy week.

I plan to link up with Carol @ Quilt Schmilt for To Do Tuesday Linkup.

Hello my Stitchy Friends! It has been another crazy busy week. I ended up missing stitching a couple of nights but still made some nice progress that I can’t wait to share with you! Let’s get started:

Once again no new starts or finishes.

WIP Updates

While I may not have a lot to share this week, I feel pretty good with what I did do.

To Do Tuesday #192

Welcome back my Quilty Friends! Lots of Happy Mail this week to share. I did more prep work than sewing this week. Which is okay. I am making progress on WIPs and ended up starting another new project.

I plan to link up with Carol @ Quilt Schmilt for To Do Tuesday Linkup. Check out her blog at the link below:

Welcome my Stitchy Friends! It has been a pretty good week. Still busy but found some stitching time. I just want to share with you everything. But first ✋🏼 Let’s take a look at the results of last month’s WIPGO.

To Do Tuesday #191

Welcome back to my quilty blog! This week was pretty good but most of it was spent in class learning my new Bernina 990 and everything it can do (which is everything but cook me dinner!). I am very excited at the possibilities. Not only does it have a laser light (where the needle is) but it also has a camera. It can even count my stitches and automatically stop when I am chain piecing! How crazy right? I don’t actually do a lot of chain piecing because I like sampler quilts or to build pictures of some kind.

I didn’t realize that it has been two weeks since I posted to my quilty blog. Two weeks in a row commuting to multiple day classes left me more exhausted than I remembered. Obviously, I am feeling as fresh as a daisy today!😂

Floss Friday #190

This past week was another full week of learning. This time I took a 3 day class in Portland to “Master” my new Bernina 990. That’s sewing and this post is about cross stitch. I only mention it because it meant that I was in traffic for an hour every morning and 90-120 minutes. When I got home, I had homework to do for the next day. By the time I finished my homework, I had enough time to eat and go to bed so I could do it all over again the next day. Not a lot of stitching happened.
