Fall – Quilts & Adventures

To Do Tuesday #160

Wow! This is the last week of November then we will be in the last month of 2025. The year has certainly been a busy chaotic year. I thought I would be nice and settled in by now. I am close but not there yet. I am already thinking about my 2026 goals. You?

This week I will be linking up with Carol @ Quilt Schmilt for To Do Tuesday. I hope you find some time to check out what other quilters and creators are working on. Maybe you might even find some time to join us. Check out the link below:

To Do Tuesday #159

Where did the time go? I can’t believe that another week has gone by. I am trying to think what I have done this week. Doesn’t seem like much. LOL! I ended up getting caught up in reading and probably read 4 books this week instead of hitting the sewing room.

Despite that, I did make it to the sewing room once this week and worked one night on my English paper piecing. I will be linking up with Carol at Quilt Schmilt for To Do Tuesday. Check it out!

October is over! So hard to believe that 2024 is coming to an end. It’s been a good year for me. Hope it has been good for you too. I have a few ideas of things I will be working on in 2025 but haven’t really nailed it down. Check the end for my thoughts on 2025. Let’s take a look at this past week.

October WIPGO Results

This has been an exciting month since I finished both WIPGO Projects. Let’s take a look. First up:

Last Friday of October already. Honestly this week has felt like the last week of October but I still have 7 more days of October! How exciting. The November WIPGO projects are out and we will take a peek. By default, that means we know the December projects as well. I have chosen not to go there. I am excited about winding down October and starting on November. Let’s get started!

November WIPGO Projects

The goal each month is to work on the project at least five times or have a finish.

Welcome back! Not as many projects this week but some nice progress towards my goals.

After having days of overcast and windy, it is nice out today with a high of 77F. Very nice fall weather. Perfect Fall day. Guess that is why I am finding so much joy stitching autumn and halloween this month.

Floss Friday #112

Welcome to another week of cross stitch. I have to write this post on Thursday because tomorrow is a Quilting Zoom Day and then I will be off to Monterey for the weekend. Things are going great and I am super happy with all my progress. I have things to do so let’s get started.

Starts & Finishes

One finish and one start this week. Is that awesome or what?!

Friday Floss #111

The heat wave that started on Monday peaked on Wednesday but is still with us through the weeked. Welcome Autumn! I expect next week I will be complaining about being cold. 😝 Hopefully you all are enjoying your October. Can you believe it is here already!?

It has been a fairly productive and fun week. Yesterday I received happy mail from 123 Stitch so I spent the afternoon kitting up the next in two series I am working on: Santa’s House (Fabulous House Series) and Winter Baskets (Triple Play Pillows series). I finished so many projects in September that I had a pile of floss that had to inventoried and put away. It sure felt good to complete that task!

Welcome back my friends. It has been an unexpected productive week. That makes it an exciting week. Let’s take a look!

I had a great stitchy week. Worked on mastering Mark R-XP app. I am loving it when everything goes smoothly, but not so much when it doesn’t. LOL. Typical me. I have definitely had fun playing with this app. I was surprised how inspiring it is to know you only have 4 green stitches left or that you are 78% done. Very cool. Let’s take a look at what I worked on this past week and what I hope to work on this coming week.

Happy Friday! Hope you had a great week. Mine has been pretty productive overall. My 24 Hours of Cross Stitch was great. I ended up stitching more than 24 hours. Friday was my new start day. Saturday was a Fall/Halloween stitch day which left Sunday as my everything else day. Let’s take a look.
