It's 3 1/2 months into the year and I haven't even rolled the dice. Well, I have rolled them just to see what it would have been, but I haven't opened any of the tubs.
That doesn't mean that I haven't had finishes, I have. Here are a few of them.
I completed the Bee Bag that I started at retreat in February. I think I'm going to like this bag better than the By Annie bag that I made earlier.
I had some chalkboard fabric and chalk markers that I used to label the contents of each pocket.
Then I quilted Mary's QOV using an eagle pantograph.
When she picked it up she brought three quilts to be quilted and told me that she'll have two more when she gets the backings ready.
And then, several of our Thursday Stitchers were making the By Annie bag. Susan, who is a very talented quilter, got mad at hers. So much so that her husband said it would be okay to trash it. I told her to bring it with her and I would help her. Little did I know, I was bringing it home to finish for her. It was a fairly easy finish. All I had to do is put the binding on the pages. She had sewn a very generous quarter inch seam on one of the pages and the binding wouldn't wrap around the edge. To fix it, I trimmed the seam allowance and completed the binding and then applied the bindings on the other pages.
I also prepared for a demonstration that I will be doing next week. I'm demonstrating the Quick Curve Ruler by Sew Kind of Wonderful. I completed two quilts for that, and I will post once that demo is completed.
So, it's not that I haven't accomplished anything, it's just that I haven't rolled the dice. And we all know how I like to roll the dice.
Until next time.....
Wishing you more stitchin time than I will have.
