Quilting, Cross Stitch & Travel Adventures
I only finished two quilts in 2020. It was my first time participating in this challenge. It worked like it was supposed to other than I got discouraged. The idea was to work on a random quilt each month to progress and hopefully finish.

We just went back to tighter covid regulations including a curfew statewide in California of 10pm. If you are out after that you need a note.

I will try and close the gap and not make this too long of a blog. I have been busy with my projects as well as work and home.

Well this past week found me finishing up a bunch of items for the end of Quarter 1. I wrapped up both Blooming Pumpkins and the Halloween wall hangings as well as finishing up the blue pinwheel potholders. That put me at 11 finished projects for Quarter one. Definitely one of my best quarters with a full size quilt as well as many small projects completed! Continue reading “Quilt Diary: 2020 Quarter 2 Finish-Along”
I don’t know about all of you, I am so tired of this virus running my life. It is throwing our economy into chaos and spinning us into a recession. Lucky for me, I have a fabric stash that should carry me through. How about you? Continue reading “Quilt Diary: Welcome to April and another month of COVID-19”
As I begin this blog it is Saturday morning, February 1st. On our way to tutoring (and Starbucks), I realized I haven’t posted for awhile. I’m torn between giving a rundown on everything or sticking to one area. When I do the rundowns, they are such a long post. I keep meaning to have more posts but shorter. #sigh So far that has been a pipe dream. As the title suggests, I have decided to do the rundown on what I have done the past two weeks. Hopefully, this post will not go on and on. Continue reading “Quilt Diary: January 2020 Wrap Up”
My 2020 first quarter goals for Finish-A-Long
We are starting this post making my list for first quarter. I already posted on Instagram (@quiltadventures) on Friday night. Some of these have been on the list for a while. For the old ones, I added them to my All People Quilt Resolution 2020. I will tag those items as I go. Because it is so random drawing for the #APQResolution2020, I included all of them in my quarterly goals just in case! Continue reading “Quilt Diary: Finish-A-Long 2020 Quarter 1 List”
Holidays were full of family, friends, celebrations, and hockey. As for most of you, there was not a lot of time to sew in the past two weeks. I am sure no one is surprised. Just got home tonight from a hockey weekend in Anaheim. I really thought I would have plenty of time to write my blog and get started on some of my new projects. (lol – such an optimist). Where to start? Continue reading “Quilt Diary: New Year’s Resolutions-Self Care”
We have been back for almost two weeks, yet I don’t feel like I have any time to sew. I have been putting in a lot of hours at work. Meetings all day and my actual work at night and weekends. Every November seems to get like this. Just Crazy! When I get home, I am exhausted. There is no food in the house again. #sigh I currently am not seeing an end to this grueling pace. I will get a break next week when we head to Halifax for American Thanksgiving. That will be nice. Continue reading “Quilt Diary: November Project Update”
Wow! It is already the last week of October. The month has flown by and not a lot of sewing has happened. Continue reading “Quilt Diary: PIQF 2019”
