Projects in 2024 were 34 with 11 in the quilting queue at this moment. As always I do my best to have something in the queue for quilting. I just finished the stitchery on two projects and am anxious to find another one to work on in the evenings. I do have a great many to choose from; one will surely quench my itch. I have five projects in the stitching process. Two are the Bonnie Hunter Winter Mysteries, Indigo Way and Old Town (Starowka), and one from the 2024 Jolly Box, Snowman Society. The other two are the sashing that brings the stitchery blocks together into a quilt.
I started counting my stash movement in July 2010 and still continue to capture my usage and purchases to this day. I find this exciting each week and encouraged to use fabric and not purchase too much. This year I moved 269 yards of material around in the sewing room. I purchased 148 to get projects finished with only a few purchases of new projects. All said and done, the net used was 121 yards. Since retiring in July, I have been really busy with sewing by increasing my net used nearly one and a half times that of 2023. Yes indeed I have been sewing!
I am working hard to catch up on my UFOs from previous years. A list for 2025 has been started and you will see it soon. I am also stitching projects that have not made it to a UFO list ever. Can you imagine ever having no UFOs?
I do attend more sewing events now that I am retired. Love having a free schedule to do things quilty.
