What Are Quilters Blogging About Today?

 It’s the time of year to begin another Round Robin. Starting next week the hosts will be giving prompts for what to add to our centre squares. There will be six different prompts, one per week, and then the reveal. It is a busy time, but so much fun. A great way to pass the winter months, or at least a couple of them. This week we start off by showing our centre squares. Mine is a piece that I was working on last fall in an attempt to finish an English Paper piecing square I’d been working ...

Good morning, my friends. I'm happy to say we've banished One Drive from the laptop for the second time. Strangely, there was, for a while, a folder marked "One Drive." There was nothing in it, and anything related to One Drive had been disabled. Still, if we deleted the folder, it would reappear within just a few seconds. Kinda made us wonder why Microsoft wants in tentacles in everything we do. Weird. But you’ll note that was all in the past tense. Mike spent some time watching a video that told him how to delete it completely ...

 I was pleased with the dent I made in last year's list. I whittled down my UFO list considerably and left room for new projects I've been looking forward to making.Carry-overs from last year*1. Book Nook - just finished binding this one the other day.2. Old Dirt Road - I pulled this out last year, intending to work on it, but it always seemed to end up on the back burner. I'd like to get

 I have a finish!

It's January in the upper Midwest which normally would bring cold and snow.  I never used to mind winter, because we went skiing.  And we had jobs that kept us very busy.  Now that we're old and retired (relatively) those fun ski trips are long in the past, and we're home a LOT.  With little interaction with actual live people.  And this month has been so gloomy!  Every day we have a grey sky and brown landscape.  ARGGGG!  Can you tell I'm struggling with that scenario?

Maybe I should be sewing with brighter colors this week ...

SAHRR 2026 begins today. I thought I had just the right starter block but I'm having second thoughts....I'll make the decision by Friday. Come back to see what I choose!  

Meanwhile..... I've made nine Trip Around the World blocks.   I'm using batiks so that though there are many colors there's some genre uniformity.

I found two tutorials, one with five fabrics and one with four fabrics.  Both involve sewing strips and making a tube, slicing the tube, then unpicking the seam to create the stepped effect.   Five-fabric is somewhat livelier but trickier to piece ...

I  wasn't going to play along with the 2026 SAHRR hosted by Quilting Gail.

Welcome to Day 3 of the Starry Seas BlogHop.

Here is my response!

Dawn to Dusk

When Jennifer of Inquiring Quilter asked me to join the Starry Seas BlogHop, I did not respond at once. I needed to see the fabric collection first. 

Hmmm, what does that inspire? Let's take another look.

It reminded me of my commute. My new job requires me to leave home before dawn and return after dusk, meaning that I experience sunrise and sunset (especially during these winter months), through the sometimes murky train windows. It is both sad and beautiful.

How many times have I lamented that I need just one more day? A few I know. Well, guess what? I just got one more day!!

I had something planned for today, and it got postponed until next week. So that gives me one more day to prep for the two classes and the UFO Club on the weekend. YAHOO!!!!!!
