The new year will be here before we know it. Most people make “resolutions” on what they want to change or do differently in the new year. I do have my own goal, which is to continue to declutter this house, and to organize. Both will help me mentally as well. I did some organizing…

WIP Wednesday–Rug
Had to title it rug since that’s about all I worked on. Last week I said my to-do list was to do whatever I felt motivated to work on. This next week will be the same. After the Christmas break, when Heather goes back to work, the plan is for me to stay in the…
WIP Wednesday–Christmas Gifts
I only put one thing on my to-do list for this past week and it was to finish the Christmas gifts that I am making. I did get that done. Fabric boxes with candy for family gifts–yes, we have quite a few families in our family. I have a pillow for Jordan, snip it monsters…
WIP Wednesday–December Already
Whew! It’s December already and every day is one day less to get Christmas gifts made. I am moving along on them, but have discovered that I need 2 more fabric bowls. How is everyone else doing on gifts they are making? This is my list from last week: I should have removed my coat…
WIP Wednesday–Happy Thanksgiving!
So that everyone could be there, we had our Thanksgiving dinner this evening. If my count is right, there were 36 of us in attendance. I did take Elizabeth too (her urn and picture). I tried to get as many as I could in my picture. Better take a look at last week’s list– I…
WIP Wednesday–7 lbs. 2 oz.
Yep, Lemmy Lynn Elizabeth was a work in progress for 9 months and she is now here! She was stubborn and didn’t turn. The Dr. got her turned, but then the induction wasn’t doing anything. 12 hours later my daughter had a c-section. Long day but so worth it! As to sewing and crafts, here…
WIP Wednesday–Retreat Report
The retreat was great. I was exhausted, but I love the dedicated sewing time that I get at the retreats. From last week’s list: I want to start with the little fabric bowl that we learned how to make at the retreat. It was easy and fun, and finally an idea for Christmas. I have…
WIP Wednesday–Another Retreat Coming Up
Yay! I have another retreat coming up this Friday and Saturday. I plan, and have packed up, small projects to work on. These will be notebook covers, microwave cozies, coasters, and tissue covers. We are going to learn to make a fabric bowl with 10 inch squares while there. I look forward to that. Last…
WIP Wednesday–Baby Blankets
It’s late, but I didn’t like the idea of missing a week of posting. There is one more day of the quilt retreat. I have more panels for more blankets, but need to find backing and batting to make more. Last week’s list was to be for 2 weeks, but I will still make a…
WIP Wednesday–Quilt Retreat Next Week
I doubt that I will do a post next Wednesday as the quilt retreat is Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. And, we go to family night on Wednesday evenings at the Methodist church. My plan for the retreat is to work on baby blankets. I have a large bag of fabrics and supplies ready to go…
