Quilt Diary: March 2021

My focus this month has been finishing up that Christmas Wedding Quilt that I have been working on forever. I especially wanted it done in March. It would be an understatement to say I was done! With that said, my other quilty projects have been neglected. Once I mailed off the quilt, I have jumped in with both feet trying to catch up on my other projects.

QUILT DIARY: Under the Needle in February 2021

Same as in January, I have focused mostly on my free motion quilting and have really neglected my other sewing projects. You throw in a trip to Florida the last week of February and I really shut down my own progress. #sigh I apologize for the week late post.

EPP DIARY: What’s Happening in 2021?

Can’t believe it’s already been a month since we last talked about my English Paper Piecing projects. I did get a lot of hockey time which equals piecing time! Although our county shut down, a couple counties away, the rinks were opened so we were able to do two weeks of hockey camp. Thank goodness!

QUILT DIARY: What’s Under my needle in November

It is hard to believe that tomorrow is Thanksgiving and next week will be December. Where has the time gone? 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.

QUILT DIARY: October Sewalong Updates

I finally hit a wall and have had to take a step back. I had so many sewalongs going on that I fell behind and then I was feeling terrible about myself. When I realized I wasn’t having fun anymore, I dropped the idea of joining two more sewalongs starting at the end of September and beginning of October.

Quilt Diary: February 2020 Goals

Time flies by!  It has already been another week. I thought I could update you on what I have been doing this week towards my February goals.  Even though this is a big travel month, I do also have some home time.  I think it will end up being a very balanced month.  My daughter is coming for a visit next week.  She is going to watch Shaun play hockey next weekend and come home with us.  Then her boyfriend will be flying up and the two of them will be skiing for a week.  When she gets back, Shaun and I will be gone to another hockey tournament.  Including this weekend, that is 3 weekends of hockey, hockey, hockey.  There is only one weekend without hockey and luckily Caitlin will be here.

On to quilting….. Continue reading “Quilt Diary: February 2020 Goals”
