Sunday Summary: October 20

/ quiltinggail

A Triple Finish!

I made 3 quilts for Create with Claudia’s Twilight blog hop. You can read about them HERE.

Stitching Stuff

Kate, from Life in Pieces, is hosting “Stitching Stuff” and the goal is to sew for at least 15 minutes a day. I use Kate’s guideline, but my personal goal is to sew for 30 minutes a day. On those “blah” days, it does motivate me to sit at my machine and 30 minutes often turns into several hours. Thank you Kate for the motivation!

Since we’re home now, I’ve been able to sew every day!

  • January – September:  245 / 272 days
  • October: 19 / 20 days
  • 28 missed days since January 1
  • Total: 264 / 292 90 %

Design Wall Mondays

Judy, at Small Quilts and Doll Quilts, hosts a linky party for “What’s on your Design Wall” every week.

Piecing projects:

  • SAHRR ’25: working on Prompt #5
  • November Island Batik project

Quilting:

  • Floral Fusion: not started, yet

Sunday Stash

Donna at Quilt Paint Create hosts a weekly linky party where you can display your stash numbers. This has really kept my stash from growing (somewhat!) Before I buy anything, I am always mindful of the fact that I need to report it on my blog … That sometimes stops me in my tracks!

  • Fabric Used in the last week:  13.5 yards
  • Fabric Used in 2024:     176.5 yards  from non-IB: 70
  • Fabric Added in the last week: 0 yards
  • Fabric Added this year:     29.5 yards 
  • Net Fabric used:              131.5 yards
