Good morning, my friends. We had a slow day yesterday. Our only plan was to go have lunch in Boulder City, and then get some fudge to enjoy with our afternoon cup of espresso. Before leaving, I spent some time on my embroidery, filling my hoop.

Good morning, my friends. Today I can reveal my “Motion” quilt for The Endeavourers art quilt group, but before I do, lets catch up on what happened yesterday, shall we? And let me just tell you, we made good on our goal to do nothing for the entire day. It's good to attain one's goals, wouldn't you agree?
I spent some time on my slow-stitching, finishing off the right side of the turtle.

Good morning, my friends. Our time here in Escondido is nearly at an end. We'll be here today and tomorrow, but then we'll move along to Boulder City, Nevada. We're still enjoying our time here, and we have yet to see everything on our list of things to do. Anything we don't do this trip will go on the list for next year.
My yesterday started with my slow-stitching. I've filled the hoop on this section now.

Good morning, my friends. It was a busy sewing day yesterday. I managed to finish off my "Motion" challenge, and then I had time to quilt the first row of the Whimsical Garden quilt.
My sewing started with embroidery, as always. But then I moved to hand-stitching the binding for the "Motion" project. It was a small quilt, but I'm sure it was easier to stitch with the help of my trusty stitching cat.

Good morning, my friends. Our weatherman has been right about the forecast. We had a couple of reasonably nice days Tuesday and Wednesday, but the rain has returned today. We're expecting a wet weekend. That's Oregon for you. If there's anything you can count on here, it's rain in winter.
We were late getting off to the grocery store yesterday. That meant I didn't get into the sewing room until nearly 3:00 p.m. Despite my late start, I was able to get my challenge quilt to binding stage. As I mentioned yesterday, I ...

read moreGood morning, my friends. It was a busy day yesterday. All the items on my to-do list were checked off. I've been working at procrastinating less. You might say I'm procrastinating on my procrastination. It feels good to have everything finished at the end of the day, but it cuts into my sewing time. Nevertheless, I started my "Motion" project yesterday, and I was able to get farther along than expected. I was so involved in the process that I neglected to take any pictures until the end of the day. Here's your peek:

Good morning, my friends. It was a mostly sunny day yesterday. Like us, the kitties were suffering from cabin fever after so many days of heavy rain. They were champing at the bit to get outside.

Good morning, my friends. What a nice day we had yesterday. For whatever reason, it felt less hurried than usual. I finished one project, and I'm on the cusp of finishing another. Possibly the lack of projects half finished made it seem less busy.
Of course, I have lots of projects half finished, but I take them in stages. When I'm talking about "projects," I'm meaning whatever stage it happens to be in currently. Take the Barnyard quilt as an example. I made the blocks one per month. When they were all finished, it went to the ...

Another finish. I finished a quilt last summer which I started about 15 years ago. This UFO was from a guild brown bag block challenge. I selected fabrics for the challenge and placed them in a brown paper bag. Each month, our group exchanged bags, rotating through each member. While I stitched blocks for other […]
read moreGood morning, my friends. It's another Monday. Happily, it'll be a mostly-sewing day for me. I took the weekend off from doing any workouts, but I'll need to get back to that today. Aside from that, it will be NBS for me.
As expected, I didn't get much sewing done yesterday, but I finished my "Circus" piece. It now has a space on the wall of my sewing room. Here's a peek for you.
