15 Minutes To Stitch 2020 - Weeks 2 and 3
I loved participating in Kate's Life in Pieces 15 Minutes to Stitch in 2019 and am a fan of her blog. She's hosting again for 2020
My 2020 goal is to stitch at least 15-minutes 50% of the days in the year.

I missed reporting last week so combined both Weeks 2 & 3 in this post:
- Week 2: 6 of 7 = 86 %
- 100 minutes/day average across 7-days
- Week 3: 7 of 7 = 100 %
- 141 minutes/day average across 7-days
- January: 17 of 19 = 89 %
- 2020: 17 of 19 = 89 %
Second 2020 project has been completed, the Name Tag for my local Modern Quilt Guild's January Challenge. Since the reveal is next Sunday, this project will need to also remain a secret until after that. Below are pictures of the back. I loved the Fat Quarter Shop ribbon and used it for my ties. I didn't like how the old nametag was a fixed length, so this one can simply be tied.
While I was thinking that I would do Foundation Paper Piecing, I decided to go in a different direction and again used the Cricut Maker. It was great to have precision pieces cut without my fingers cramping up.

You've got a pretty good start with your stitching time in 2020. The back of your name tag is pretty fun, I really like that print. Hope this week is even better than last week. Happy stitching!
