Floss Friday #23

It’s been a typical week. We’ve had lots of hockey practice and running around like chicken’s with our heads cut off but I still managed to have some time to stitch. I’ve even checked off almost everything on my list this week. Only thing left was a Final Finish….

To Do Tuesday #28

It was nice to be home all week. I was able to clean up a (very) little in my sewing studio and start looking at upcoming projects. Of course, starting a new project requires that I finish something soon!

Floss Friday #22

How time flies when you are having fun! I was just reviewing my October progress and November goals in regards to my cross stitch. October felt amazing! Only 2 starts, but 6 stitch finishes, and even 1 Final Finish! What a great feeling.

I am looking at my November goals and I sure am optimistic. I have myself starting 3 new projects and finishing 6 again this month and even made a list of 6 possible final finishes. Whew! And that is with a holiday and much travel. Hmmm. Oh well, if you don’t reach for the stars, you never get there.

Starts & Finishes

No new starts or finishes.

Final Finishes

No new final finishes.

Works in Progress

As you may have recalled we were in Chicago when this week began. I only took one project with me so it is not surprising that I spent a lot of time on this project and didn’t work on very many other projects. This next week will be a bit different.

Autumn Beauties 2021 SAL with Fat Quarter Shop

I worked on this project mostly. Although, I felt we was always on the move over the weekend from airport to hotel to rink, etc. Of course, you have to eat as well. When you go with the whole team, it does not leave much free time. I managed to finish my border and start working on the sunflowers. I hope to finish page one of the chart this upcoming week.

Bats & Boos 2021 SAL with Fat Quarter Shop

Woohoo! I am so close to finishing this one that I am not going to let up until I am done with this one! I finished one side of the border Wednesday night and will continue working on this each week.

I wanted to get page 3 of this SAL from last year done before putting away for another year. Stitching on 14 Ct Fabric Flair Cobweb with DMC 310 and leftover from Bats & Boos Weeks Dye Works oranges.

Upcoming

I finally get to spend a whole week at home before we head off to another hockey weekend on the 18th. I’ve set some very big goals for myself this coming week:

Finish the bottom border of Bats & Boos
Start Nov 9 path
Start Prim Stitch #9
Work on MFE2021SAL project April page
Finish Center of August Cottage of the Month
FFO: Let’s Talk Autumn Hoop

Have a great weekend everyone!!!!

To Do Tuesday #27

Been a busy week. Not a lot done this week as we took off for Chicago over the weekend for another hockey tournament. I am hoping this week will be a bit more productive.

Floss Friday #21

Hello Everyone! It’s been a hectic week. I am in Chicago this weekend for my grandson’s hockey, so not a lot of stitching is happening. At least it is not snowing here! I can’t believe it is November already!

To Do Tuesday #26

This will be short and sweet this week.

I will be linking up with Linda’s @ Texas Quilt Gal To Do Tuesday. Thanks Linda!

Floss Friday #20

This has been a week of procrastination in my life. I set myself a task for the week that is hard for me and now it is being reflected throughout my life. But isn’t that what being human is all about. Overcoming challenges.

If I am honest with myself, it has not been that bad. I am just focusing on what I haven’t done instead of what I have done. So let us switch to what I have done this week.

To Do Tuesday #25

I don’t know about you, but my week went really well. I got some serious sewing time and made some incredible progress. Starting with our monthly zoom quilting call all the way through the weekend. There was a moment,

Floss Friday #19

The week sure went fast with the quilt show last week. I still managed to get some stitching in despite all the chaos.

I don’t have as much to chit chat about this week, but it was definitely great seeing all my quilty friends last week.

To Do Tuesday #24

Hi Everyone! Hope this finds you all busy working on your projects . As we talked about last week, it has been a busy week with cooking and quilting classes. Then walking the quilt show and attending another Hockey weekend. The bright side is my grandson’s team qualified for the regular season over the weekend so we get a by for the next hockey weekend at end of October. Yeah! I will spend it quilting!

I am linking up with Linda for To Do Tuesday over on her website.
