January 2023 – Quilts & Adventures

To Do Tuesday #36

Welcome back to To Do Tuesday. I will be linking up with Carol @ Quilt Schmitt. See the link below the cute logo below.

My experiment with 24 hours of quilting was overall a success. It didn’t got quite how I was picturing it. I only got in 16 hours of quilting. Yet I still got way more done than I normally would in a weekend. I may have to rethink and plan a little better for next time. Not bad for my first quilting marathon.

Floss Friday #32

With 24 hours of cross stitching last weekend, I made great progress. So let’s get started!

To Do List #35

Whoa! I can’t believe this is the first time I am working on my quilt log and journal this month. I don’t even have my monthly goals written down. I find that crazy to even think. I knew I had been gone for half the month, but I didn’t realize how out of sync I was. LOL!

FLOSS FRIDAY # 31

Hello Fellow Cross Stitchers. January has been a crazy month in my little month as I have been travelling with my grandson Shaun for hockey the first half of the month. Not a lot of quilting or stitching has happened in my world recently, but definitely more stitching then quilting just due to portability of the hobby.

Floss Friday #30

Welcome to 2023! My first post of the new year. I missed To Do Tuesday this week because I didn’t do anything. Okay not much. So we are jumping into Floss Friday instead. We have a lot to cover since I participated in #NYE12x12 #TeamWIPs.
