That’s a great reason to quilt on … and leave the dust there! 😁

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!

• January – November:  295 / 335 days
• December: 15 / 15 days
• 40 missed days since January 1
• Total: 301 / 341 88 %

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 #6
• Test Quilt: SSB

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!

In the past week, I posted about my Island Batik December challenge. You can read about it HERE.

• Fabric Used in 2024:     210 yards  from non-IB: 85
