February 25th, 2018 - The Sewing Room
Just a quick post. I’ve been working on a real oldie BOM from LizzieBCrea8ive called Piece, Love, & Applique. It’s very time consuming as I have to do some applique on every block. And on my mother’s machine. Oh how I miss my Bernina. I should hear something this week. This BOM would have taken less time if I did it every month when I originally purchased it.  I will post pictures when I’m done. Right now I’m up to Block 7, halfway done. I didn’t include it in my stash report but once again when I’m finished I will do the math. I did cut out some sashing for another old BOM where I actually have the finished blocks.
Fabric used this week: 2.46 yards
Fabric used YTD: 26.97 yards
Fabric added this week: 43.14 yards
Fabric added YTD: 43.14 yards
Net fabric busted: -16.17 yards
In the sewing room, I’ve been sewing almost every day. I managed to sew for a total of 30.5 hours with no sewing at all on Saturday. I took my grandkids to a birthday party for my great nephews and I was just too tired to do any sewing after that. I will certainly make up for it today.
I’m linking up to QuiltPaintCreate and Life In Pieces for the stash report and 15 Minutes to Sew. Have a wonderful week.

[…] No fabric in or out this week. I had to go out of town for work this week, which killed the stitching time. The travel date got changed then postponed and then rescheduled with almost no notice. The schedule change resulted in long days so we could accomplish what we were there to do. I didn’t have time for handwork in the hotel at night because we worked so late. I’m grateful for the new week so I can get back to those projects. Before I left I added more paint to the bottom of the bird quilt. I no longer feel like it’s top heavy. I basted it and started quilting, but didn’t get very far. I plan to work on it more today.

I have some UFOs that will take me a lot of time too. I’m saving those for after I finish others and get the UFO numbers down. Look forward to seeing the finished top.

That’s a lot of fabric incoming for just one week! You’ll have lots of fun stuff to play with now. Congrats on finding lots of stitching time this week. Happy stitching!
