September 2008

I did not realize that so much time had passed without any posts. So, here's what's been happening:

Binding
Folding stash
More binding
More folding stash
(you get the idea)

I can now announce that my stash folding is done! I have a few smaller pieces of fabric to put away (some FQs and 1 yd cuts), but otherwise all fabric has been returned to the stash closet. Yay!

In addition, I have finished the binding on 2 quilts, one close to twin size and the other about 65" x 65". Two quilts still need binding: one small twin and one large queen.

The only new project that I am allowing myself as part of my challenge (see Aug 5, 2008) are the quilts that I will make using some fabric I was given by my guild. I have already selected my patterns and have started cutting fabric for one of them.

I'd like to be further along in my challenge, but life seems to interrupt. Working with a personal trainer 3 evenings per week eats up a fair amount of sewing time during the week. In spite of that, I'm not giving up. I still think my goals for this 6-month challenge are do-able. I persevere.
