Quilting, Cross Stitch & Travel Adventures
Oops! Had an unexpected trip last week. Left Tuesday for San Jose, California and got back home Sunday night. Accomplished what I needed but not everything I wanted. With the Thanksgiving holiday and the trip, I didn’t get any sewing done until yesterday.
I will be linking up with Carol @ Quilt Schmilt for To Do Tuesday. Check it out!
Continue reading “To Do Tuesday #161”Hello everyone! Hard to believe the kiddos are headed back to school. Summer went way too fast. Plus it is just sad to think that we end summer in August now. I like it better when school started in September. There just seemed to be more …. Summer.
The plan is to linkup with Carol @ Quilt Schmilt again this week for To Do Tuesday. Jump over and check out the projects.
Hello from Vancouver, Washington where it is freaking hot today! I didn’t move to the Pacific Northwest to be roasted to death. It has been over 98F for several days and I am looking forward to the predicted rain that should be here by Thursday. I would never have guessed I would be looking forward to rain 🌧️
With my studio on the second floor, it has been unbearable to be upstairs for extended periods of time in the sewing studio. I managed to work on a few blocks as well as start unpacking my fabric boxes. I have already unpacked 10 boxes. For someone who doesn’t like green, I sure have a lot. I am guessing it is becauses every collection comes with green and I tend to not use it. LOL! I elected to focus on sorting fabrics by color in the new studio and that is where I am at for now.
Continue reading “To Do Tuesday #152”Welcome Back! We are now in the last week of July. Overall it has been hot here in the Pacific Northwest but not over the top except for a few days. I am definitely enjoying the gorgeous summer here in Washington. I am loving it!
I will be linking up with Carol at Quilt Schmilt again this week. Jump over and check out all the cool projects. Get some inspiration.
Continue reading “To Do Tuesday #150”I am still playing catchup (again) 🤣 I never posted last week because it was quilt zoom day and then I just … forgot. Oopsie! So here we are making up for lost time.
I have a bit to share with you but first wanted to just let you know I have been on a hunt for the fabric I knew I purchased for the June WIPGO project Field Guide to Dragons. I searched in all my unpacked cross stitch supplies (and realized I am missing all of my 14 ct aida hmmm). Then I realized that I probably had put it in the tote bag of cross stitch haul that still needs to be scanned and organized. I looked in that tote twice. I went to put away some recent haul from 123 Stitch and my new FQS Stitch Quarterly in THAT tote. Guess what I found? Yep, the missing fabric. What a relief!
Continue reading “Floss Friday #143”Another week has flown by and I am happy to share that I was in the sewing studio several times this week. Still only working on one project as I am still unpacking and organizing my space. Yet, it feels good to be sewing again.
I will be linking up with Carole at Quilt Schmilt again this week for To Do Tuesday linkup. Check it out.
Continue reading “To Do Tuesday #141”Hello Everyone! Still a slow week in the sewing studio but I did make it up there. Still unpacking and organizing my stuff, but I had an opportunity to do a little sewing this week so I wanted to share with you.
While I haven’t done much, I thought I would go ahead and linkup with Carol over at Quilt Schmilt for To Do Tuesday. Go on over and check it out!
Welcome to this week’s edition of quilty things. Still moving in so not much happened until yesterday when I spent the afternoon in the sewing studio with my Covid kitties – Simba and Nala.
I will not be linking up with Carol this week because I didn’t really do any sewing this week, but please check out the linkup so you can see what others are doing!
Continue reading “To Do Tuesday #139”Wow! First Stitchy post of April. This move has definitely knocked me off my creative crafty horse 🐎. At least I did get some stitching done before the move and just this week finally got settled enough to get going again. I have a few challenges since I haven’t unpacked the craft/sewing studio yet. Let’s get caught up!
Continue reading “Floss Friday #136”Welcome back! This week has been a fairly productive week with all my cross stitch projects. I am looking forward to sharing what I worked on this week. So let’s get started!
