To Do Tuesday #38

Happy Valentine’s Day!

Welcome back everyone! How many of you watched the Super Bowl on Sunday? Or was that a great time for you to disappear into your sewing room undisturbed. I am a sports fanatic so even though I am not big into football (especially when my 49ers were eliminated by the Eagles the prior week), I did have it on while I tootled around the house. It turned out to be a great week for me!

To Do Tuesday #37

My word of 2023 is ENRICH. I want to spend this year doing things that enrich my life. One of the things that I chose was switching over to a digital planner. Of course, this is a slow process as I am definitely a paper and pen gal in general. I still get my bills in the mail even though I pay everything online. So this is an interesting journey in general. BUT moving my Monthly goals, Weekly Goals, and Daily To Do’s to the digital planner has been absolutely awesome! I love “lassoing” an item I didn’t do yesterday and dragging it to what day I think I will do it. Or duplicating an entry (such as To Do Tuesday) and just dragging it to the next Tuesday. With that said, I feel like this week has been particularly productive. Obviously, I still didn’t complete everything on my list, but I sure got pretty far!

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.

QUILT DIARY: June 2021

This week’s blog is very challenging. WordPress had an update and I am struggling with the changes. I even consider myself computer savy (LOL), but I have been working on this for an hour…. I usually like to use my Ipad to write the blog because it is so much easier to insert photos but I am back to my laptop in an effort to get this blog written and hope WordPress fixes the apple app soon. Hopefully you will still enjoy the blog.

EPP DIARY: June 2021

Another month has slipped by with plenty of hockey. A matter of fact there has been so much hockey that I kind of got burnt out for a week. I took a week off and just read instead. LOL!

QUILT DIARY: Update May 2021

I haven’t had a lot of drive this month to work on things. I have pittered around with a few projects but not my usual focus on getting things done.

EPP DIARY: May 2021 Progress

Time is zipping past at the speed of light. I got my second Covid-19 shot today. In another 2 weeks, I should be 95% protected. Of course everyone wants you to keep doing the masks and everything. I just want to get back to normal and quit living in fear.

QUILT DIARY: April 2021

Today I received a bouquet of my favorite yellow flowers without a name on the card with awesome words: Thanks are the highest form of thought and gratitude is happiness doubled by wonder. The gift brought me much joy but left me wondering who I had helped enough to send flowers on a random Thursday. Of course, those gifts are the most appreciated because they are unexpected.

EPP DIARY: April 2021 projects

This particular post is so much faster than any of the others mostly because if you are slow stitching, you really can’t have too many ongoing projects if you actually want to finish them. I do really love English Paper Piecing. It is so satisfying seeing all those tiny stitches.

QUILT DIARY: Under the Needle in February 2021

Same as in January, I have focused mostly on my free motion quilting and have really neglected my other sewing projects. You throw in a trip to Florida the last week of February and I really shut down my own progress. #sigh I apologize for the week late post.
