January Goals Revisited

How did I do on my January goals?

  • Opportunity Quilt – 6 blocks - I did part of them and handed them over to the Chair for this project to complete.
  • Friendship Braid – Piece Backing – Completed!
  • Simply Sophisticated – Two Blocks - Completed not only the two blocks that I wanted to do, but finished the top.
  • Sweet Treasures – Two Blocks – yea… didn’t get to this one
  • Friendship Braid – Bind – nope
  • Friendship Braid – Quilt – nope
  • Friendship Braid – Sandwich - nope, I am having problems sandwiching now that I have a new dining room table.
  • Pastel Lucky Stars – Complete Binding – yes, this was done
  • Home for the Holidays – Piece Backing - yes, this one got completed
  • Home for the Holidays – Sandwich - again, nope because of the problems with sandwiching things
  • Home for the Holidays – Quilt - nope
  • Home for the Holidays – Bind - nope

All in all a productive month, but some things I really wanted to do didn’t get accomplished.  I do need to find a way to sandwich my quilts without having to put them on the floor.  I used to put them on my kitchen table and clamp the layers to the table and then pin.  I got a new dining room table at the first part of the year and now I don’t want to mess it up at all.    I tried to use my table in my sewing area, but I can’t clamp to it because the table is too thick.

I hope you had a productive month too!

State of the Stash – Week 5

There was nothing in or out this week.  The fabric I ordered last week still hasn’t arrived.  The whole house was down with a cold, so no sewing this week really.  I did go to a guild workshop yesterday for making fabric postcards for our quilt show to sell.

So on to the numbers:
