On the Needles Friday
This week has flown by. I am really not sure where the days went. It isn't like we are going anywhere. But I did get to spend some quality time with my sewing machine and yarn. My first yarny finish for the year is a hat for Meg.

And I was able to cast on my Q1 project for ESK's Yarnathon.

BOM's Away Monday
I have resolved this year to concentrate on BOM's that have been started. Starting off this year is Joy of Life. It was a 9 month BOM that I started around 2010. I am working on block 9 of 9. I want to update my progress until it is DONE, including the quilting.

Weekly Stash Report and Plan
During a Blog Hop last week, I found some great ideas that completed the sentence: My stitching resolution for 2021 is ________________. At ChrisKnits I saw her Stash Report that was simple but informative. I am taking her lead and will keep a list of what comes in and what goes out. Starting next Sunday January 10, I will hopefully add a few numbers to show that I did something constructive this first week of the new year.
SEWING: I have no idea how much fabric I have. My goal for the year is to only purchase what I need to complete a project. I have never tracked the amount I have spent. I really, really didn't want to know!
Fabric In: 0 yards
Fabric Out: 0 yards
Net Fabric: 0 yards
Fabric YTD: 0 yards
Spending YTD: $0.00
KNITTING: I did calculate how much yarn I have. Again a promise to myself to work from my stash and limit purchases.
Starting Yards and Skeins: 53394.5 yards/355.5
skeins
Knitted: 0 yards/
0 skeins
Purchased: 0 yards/0 skeins
Ending Stash: yards/ skeins
Spending YTD: $0.00
Plan for the Week
