To Do Tuesday #14

Hello Fellow Quilters!

It has been a few weeks since I posted. I was overly optimistic about having energy to quilt while my brother was here. I love my brother and it was awesome spending time together – just the two of us. Several people left comments that they did not know how I was going to find time to quilt. LOL! Yea, that didn’t happen.

It’s been a few busy weeks since we last posted. If you follow my Tuesday blog, then you know that I have been running around and have had visitors. With cross stitch, that means my routine is broken up.

I don’t have a few new starts and new finishes. I have been working on my monthly goals and have made some nice progress on them. Let me share that with you.

To Do Tuesday #13

Wow! Where did the week go! I had a lot of distractions this week so only a few things done even with my all day sewing on Friday. I don’t know about you, but any progress makes me happy.

To Do Tuesday #12

Happy Tuesday everyone! Hope you have had a great week. Here is San Jose it has been nippy for May. I had a nice Mother’s Day with my son Steven. He took me to dinner and a movie.

Happy mail arrived today – my Alison Glass fabric! Whoohoo!

Floss Friday #7

Welcome Back! It Friday before Mother’s Day and I feel like the week has not been as productive with my Cross Stitch this week. I am sure that is because I didn’t stitch on something new every day this past week. Let’s see what I did do.

To Do Tuesday #11

This week has flown by. I feel like I got a ton done. My list doesn’t seem to reflect my feelings. LOL! Probably because I have been working on some of my larger WIPs. I’m definitely on a feel good cloud!

On top of all of that, I decided to participate in an unofficial WIP challenge with one of my Instagram quilty friends @flyinggoosestudio (Jocelyn). She is challenging herself (and anyone who wants to jump in) to spend the next 50 days (May 1 – June 20th) working only on WIPs. No new starts.

Happy Friday! I am attempting to type while Simba is petting me and the computer. Not only is he distracting, he keeps stepping on the keyboard. He has been very needed today waking me up at 4:30 this morning requesting cuddles. This is not normal behavior for him so not sure what’s up.

Okay. I spent some time petting him and he is settling down for a nap. Keep your fingers crossed!

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!

Floss Friday #5

If you didn’t see my recent post, I had website issues and vacation that kind of put a kink in all my plans. So this will be a catchup post.

I had a mother/daughter weekend in Seattle first weekend this month. We had a spa day and watch NCAA gymnastic at the University of Washington. It is always fun to watch people you know!

The next weekend had us flying off to Kauai, Hawaii with my grandson and his auntie (my daughter) for fun in the sun. I have never been there in April so I wasn’t sure what to expect. Of course since it is spring, it did rain but not too bad. We had lots of relaxation and fun with plenty of good food. Since we were having so much fun, I only worked on one project that week.

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.
