15 Minutes To Stitch 2021 - Week 6
I loved participating in Kate's Life in Pieces 15 Minutes to Stitch since 2020 and am a fan of her blog. She's continuously hosted since 2011!
My 2021 goal is to stitch at least 15-minutes 50% of the days in the year.
- Week 6: 7 of 7 = 100 %
- 79 minutes/day average across 7-days
- February: 7 of 7 = 100 %
- 2021: 32 of 38 = 84 %
This month so much is going on that slows down my sewing: work project ramping up, 15-month old puppy training, and 10-year old dog with a severe ear infection. It's been a very involved month. Luckily, I am in just the right place at the right time.
So, how did the sewing go this week?
Top items with progress:
1) Patterns By Jen's 2021 Color Challenge - finished 2 additional January block 6" & 2" in addition to the 12" finished last week:
Lil Trixie is so excited that she's getting her very own quilt from the 2" blocks!
All 3 February blocks have been started, but no photos.
3) Received my Pink Door Fabrics Smitten EPP BOM in the Heather Ross Malibu Fabric Line. It's so adorable!!!
And earlier in the week, I was able to practice and try different glue basting techniques with my Pink Door Fabrics EPP starter kit with Kate's supervision:The Accounting Kinder Happy Hippo is her assistant and keeps track of all our lists.4) Haven't made any progress in the last three weeks on the chapters of the Janome workbook, but the Facebook group keeps everyone's posts since it's a work at your own pace.

Sounds like life is hectic at hour house these days. Congrats on finding time to stitch 7 out of 7 with all of that going on. Love the bold colors in your Color 2021 block. Enjoy your new EPP project. Looks like you've got a good start on it. Happy stitching this week.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Kate. These weekly updates really help me keep calm and knowing that I am making progress even when I fell overwhelmed. Have a lovely stitching week!!!
