Home Grown – Quilts & Adventures

Floss Friday #197

Hello Stitchy Friends! The quilt retreat has gone well and today is a travel day back home. So hopefully, I can finish this post tonight, if not then Saturday. 🙈. With so much quilting, cross stitch time was pretty limited. Let me share what I did do this week.

Hello my Stitchy Friends! It has been another crazy busy week! Home only for a few days before heading off for my next trip. Just one more after this one and one class then I can settle into a nice rhythm for a month or two. (LOL!) 😂

Floss Friday #195

Welcome back my Stitchy friends! I am travelling today to Kentucky via Nashville. I am not sure if this will really post on Friday or if it will end up being on Saturday.

I have a lot to share today as I forgot to share the September WIPGO last time I posted in August. Which means this is my first time posting in September where I share the results of August WIPGO. I am going to tackle these first.

Wow! I got really hyper focused this week attempting to finish all of my Halloween WIPs. I normally would just work on night on something, but I really really wanted to wrap up these projects.

I considered doing this with my Fall WIPs. I don’t think I am close enough to finish any of them if I want to everything else on my list. Not sure if I will get my November goals posted as I still want to spend some time in the sewing studio today as well. So much to do and so little time (and I am retired!)

Hello Everyone! I am finally home for a while. It feels so good to be home although I had a great time in NYC. If I find some time, I will do a travel post to cover everything I did in September & October. It has definitely been a very busy fall so far. I am looking forward to some extended time at home and to get back to my normal routine.

Unfortunately for all of you, this may be a bit longish. I will try and wrap up all of October since my post on October 3rd.

It sure was a busy September. I was on the road a lot, so I missed quite a few Fridays. I had a great time at the Quilt Retreat at Zephyr Cove on Lake Tahoe. I shared a little more in the To Do Tuesday #156 post.

The latest trip took me to Redmond/Bend, Oregon for a long arm training with Gammill as well as a shop hop one day. Learned a lot and met a lot of great people. The teachers were fantastic! I can’t wait until next year to do it again when I have more experience with my retrofited Statler.

September WIPGO Update

Floss Friday #153

First Friday of September! Welcome Fall. We are still having warm weather but with a few showers to help break things up. I am sure in 4 months I will be complaining. For now, welcoming the change. It has been a pretty good week so let’s take a look.
