It is finally feeling like spring around here
which is putting everyone in a better mood.
Everyone is out walking, biking, working in
the yard--anything to be outside of the house!
I've been inside way more than I'd like, for sure,
but that will be changing. Before I get to that,
I want to check in on what I've gotten done
over the last week.
1) Finish the Americana quilt
Well, I didn't finish it but I've been working
on quilting it a little here and there. See #3.
2) Make two Farmer's Wife blocks
Just one completed. Again, see #3.
3) Finish all masks
I finished!!
I completed 355 surgical masks for the hospital!
🎉Hallelujah! 🎉
It feels like that is all I've done for weeks! Getting
back to quilting, or anything else, seems as great
as the arrival of this spring weather.
Oh, today is a GOOD day!
4) Don't take on ANY more mask orders
This was a super easy one--I didn't!
5) Knitting
I got a decent amount done.
Still frustrated with my choice but so be it;
the scarf is slowly growing. I look forward to
making this again some day in a solid.
Accomplishing my to-do's for next week looks
more promising than it has in about a month.
1) Not to sound like a broken record but...
finish the American quilt. Really.
2) Start a new quilt!
I've been really excited to start this one.
I always say my quilting tastes are all over the place.
I'm usually traditional but I think I can find something
I like in almost every category--almost.
Anyhoo, I'm just giddy about starting this one.
After all those blue/white masks, this is going to
be such a breath of fresh air--and therapeutic.
3) Continue with evening knitting on scarf
4) Figure out this month's Christmas finish
In January, I joined the "One X-Mas Item A Month"
group. I don't even have an idea of what to make
next but projects are to be posted on the 25th of every
month so I need to get on it--fast!
None of this is outside but there's always garden
work, decks to clean, plants to be potted...
you get the idea. But when it's time to rest?
I plan on sitting outside in the sun, or on a deck,
or in the garden--I have created lots of resting spots!
I think after making over 400 masks, I've earned it.
I'm looking forward to being back next Tuesday
with some actual quilting progress!
Happy quilting!
