How are you adjusting to the time change? The early sunset seems to have sapped my evening energy. But that's not new. I started the 15 minute stitching time challenge because I remember driving home in the dark after work and just having no energy to carry me to the sewing room. It was easier in the summer. I must be at least partially solar powered. Now that I'm retired it's not so bad as I can get into my sewing room before it gets dark. So it's no surprise that time change didn't play ...
read moreI pressed the huge pile of flannel chunks and started cutting. This pile is 31 three inch tumblers. They are joining the 84 that were cut last year. I need to cut a couple hundred more for a small quilt, or use them in a quilt with lots of different shapes.
I needed a few more dark 2" finished triangles, but in the end I cut lots of both dark and light.
I paired the darks and lights and have enough ready to sew 58 little blocks.
I could use them to make 8" star blocks, or 4" hourglass blocks ... read more
I wasn’t on the computer much and spent a good part of the day with the heating pad at my lower back. I woke up the early morning of Saturday barely able to move – sciatic? I don’t know, I was glad that I keep the cane close to the bed every since the horrible […]

read moreI am super excited to share this sweet little quilt as a completed top! It was easy once I made the decision to NOT put the ladies in a castle. I simplified and conquered!
The back is complete, and this baby is ready for the quilter.
It is a nice size for a child or to hang on a wall.

It's a rainy and dreary day today. I opted to stay home and do some sewing. I'm on the last strip of my scrap quilt. I'll post about that another time. I put all the Halloween decorations away and hung this turkey in anticipation of Thanksgiving Day. I think it's the only quilt I've made for this holiday.
I've made lots of progress on my daughter's scarf. It now measures about 32" long. I think it's coming out great. I'm getting a little faster at knitting each row. I think it ...

read moreI can’t be the only one with this problem: you line up your fabric in the cutting board, you carefully place your ruler, you get your rotary cutter, and you start. And so often the ruler slides and my cut is uneven.
So my solution has been to use a pressure ruler. It’s 24” long. When you press down on it, little rubber bits cling to the fabric, like this:
And sometimes even my grippy ruler slides a bit. But a new system is solving my slide-y ruler dilemma It’s SewTites. This clever system has a magnetic ... read more
Good morning, my friends. It was a productive day yesterday. I'm closing in on a finish for the Cats in Pajamas. It should be an easy task to finish it today. Under Smitty's watchful eye, I turned the fourth corner on the binding.

Sorry I have not been very active on here lately. There are so many other things I have to get done each day and I don't always have the energy or desire to write a post.
I draw the line at working past 9pm. Sorry...
