Addicted to chain sewing



 For the last week and a half I have been working on my little blocks. It is the last project that I picked to work on from the beginning of the year. I have all my blocks ready and will be starting to put the top together later today. I would have been done last week but I decided to increase the size of the quilt and that meant making more blocks.

My intention at the beginning of the year was to get the four projects I chose done and in June pick 4 more to complete by the end of the year. Oops...I may be just a month or two behind. I think the next four projects might be UFOs. Tops that are done and just be sandwiching and basting then quilt them! Yup that sounds like a great idea. With Fall fair time coming at the end of August, I could have a couple ready to enter as exhibits at my local fair!

The past two and a half weeks I have been knitting up a storm. I joined a challenge to see how many pairs of socks we could knit in the month of June...sockapaloozza!! I put off starting then got one pair done and the leader of the group extended the deadline over the holiday weekend. I had enough time to make a 2nd pair. All total in the month the group made 15 pairs of socks. Pretty good showing

The garden is growing and flowers are starting to bloom so while they do their thing, I will be trying to get things done in my sewing room!!

Let me introduce myself....

 It would seem that maybe I should re-introduce myself as I have been away from blogland for way too long. I have heard from some of my read...
