Greetings!
This month, I have mostly shoveled, cleared ice ( we had a lot of ice storms), and walked my dog wearing cleats. My husband has been away for the last 4-5 weeks and missed the work. He's home now.
Lucky is recovering from an ear infection and the vet lectured me that he had gained weight (a whole 1.5 lb--but he is a little dog). I said to the vet, "What am I supposed to do in this ice? We went from walking 2-3 miles a day to 2-3 blocks!" We will both lose some weight when the weather warms up.
So while my husband was away, I was on "a quilt retreat for 1". The house stayed orderly, the meals I made were easy, and I sewed through most of the day and even in the evening.
Finishes for this year include:
A lap quilt for us:
Pajama Rama Ding Dong finished:
2 baby quilts:
2 small pieces, table runner for Karen
and hexie piece for my round table.
Happily, I've also been making some tops to use up some orphan blocks. More on those later!
Have a safe and happy sewing day!
You've had a productive month! Gotta love a shoo-fly.
ReplyDeleteAll that shoveling and ice-breaking-up is hard work! You're building muscles! I love your quilt retreat for one idea, and it looks like you got a lot done. The hexie table-topper is a hint of Spring!
ReplyDeleteYou are on a roll! What nice progress. I haven't finished anything this year but "slow and steady . . . "
