Quilt Diary: Hockey, Family, and Quilts

I had all these plans to do all this quilting this past Easter weekend as it was suppose to be some alone time for me.  The rest of the family originally had all these other plans.  The only things I had on my agenda was a MLS and a NHL game to attend and watch respectively.  Tons and tons of me time!

Quilt Diary: April Update on Sew-A-Longs

Regular Hockey season is overall for youth and NHL.  For NHL it is Playoffs and my Sharks are in but have lost 3 in a row.  While working on the games I usually am working on my handwork projects.  I also work on them (and my blog) while at Shaun’s (grandson) hockey practice.  Spring hockey is now in full swing starting this week so I have my designated blog time on Hockey Wednesdays.  (Yea!!!)  Makes my work day a little short but hey, you do what you gotta do.

Quilt Diary: April One Monthly Goal

Linkup with Elm Streets one monthly goal and current project update

ONE MONTHLY GOAL

Last month I set a very big goal to finish my NYE quilt started in 2010.  I did work on it but got derailed when I started the Alison Glass #trinketsal in March.  With working on two different daily sewalongs, I do not see me having enough bandwidth to reset that as my April goal.  So I am going to set that aside and work on my Charity Hexagon Quilt which has also been on my list for a couple of years and I have worked on it.  I do not like my thread choice so totally derailed.

Quilt Diary: Update on Sew-A-Longs

It is Hockey Wednesday and I find myself at my favorite blogging place – Starbucks!  I’ve been on a good roll blogging the past few weeks so I certainly don’t want to break that trend.  So I have been sitting here for the past 30 minutes flipping through my pics to see what I have done this week.  Since last weekend was hockey weekend not much sewing and quilting really got done.  Although, I am not disappointed in my progress.  I spent most of the weekend working on my sewalongs and my March one monthly goal.

Quilt Diary: NYE Quilt – March OMG

February I picked something different than one of my other goal setting blogs I am participating in with the hope that multiple projects will get done.  Haha!  Not so much but I am getting the hang of setting realistic goals and slowly working on my very old WIPs.  Progress can’t be sneezed at.

Quilt Diary: Knot & Dresden Potholder finish!

Knot Potholders

Already finished my knot orphan blocks into potholders.  I decided not to put loops so they can double as hot pads for the table if needed.  Once I got focused, it was not so bad and I played around with some ideas for when I quilt the finished quilt top this orphan blocks belonged too.
