Sunday Summary

 I am definitely behind I have never been a prolific blogger, I initially wanted to keep track of my quilting and knitting projects, genealogy research and maybe some cooking and baking.  I recently pulled out an applique project that I started several years ago. I completed the 8th of 13 blocks.

It's September and I am Back

 The header is a little misleading.  I haven't been anywhere.  The summer flew by just as it did for many of you. It is time for me to get back to a routine, make to-do lists and organize some sewing, quilting and yarns spaces.

My knitting projects for the week:

Quilting Projects
  • Bind Underground Railroad Quilt
  • Honoring Emma Block 9

OMG February

 I had decided this year to make a Rose of Sharon machine embroidery quilt.  I had purchased a BOM several (many) years ago.  It was for needle turn applique but then I found a couple of machine embroidery designs.  After a few false starts I decided on an Anita Goodesign pattern.  My goal this month is to make Block 1 using the fabrics from a BOM.  I am going to link up with Stories from the Sewing Room.

PhD Challenge 2024

 For the past few years I have participated in a PhD (Projects half Done) challenge.  I have made a little progress.  But this is my year to make progress completing some of these projects.  This is a screenshot of my list.  I will add a few pictures of the quilts that I will be working on.  I am going to link up with Ms P's blog, the hosts for this PhD challenge.
