2022 New Year … New Goals

It’s been a while since I posted anything. The past summer found me on the road more than not. Once again, I had computer issues again so here we are more than six months later. I had to switch over to my laptop as Word Press is no longer working on my iPad which makes it a challenging process for sure.

Long Arm Goals for 2022

During 2021 I retired and purchased myself a new long arm machine. It took forever to be delivered and when it was finally delivered, I ended up on the road for six weeks. I got home and I finally did my first quilt. Then Gammill changed the distribution and consumer channels so that means I had no one locally to get help from.

Finish-A-Long DIARY: Qtr 2 2021

It’s hard to believe that another quarter has flown by. I had 28 projects on my list for second quarter of 2021. I finished four of those. They all happened to be applique projects but they are in use already and look beautiful. Let’s take a look!

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.

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.

Finishalong Diary: Quarter 1 2021

I really thought I would finish more things than I did, but I still finished 7 different projects this quarter out of 21. I feel good about that. I keep getting more organized as time goes on, so all is good!

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.
