OMG October Finish

 I am making steady progress on Vintage Rouge.  I completed stitching the bias stems and center poinsettias.  I just may reach my goal and have the top completed before 2022.

Weekly Progress

 The past few weeks have been a little of this and a little of that.  I was cleaning up and organizing my sewing room.  And realized I have so much fabric that will never be part of a quilt.  I remembered that a nearby church has a mission group that makes dresses and shorts for Haiti as well as blankets and pillowcases.  So far I have made 4 dresses and 3 pairs of shorts.

I will be using my personal stash for the dresses but the shorts are kits which are cut and ready to sew.  

I finished another hat, Pimm's Cup Hat for a favorite niece. 

I haven't posted any numbers in a few weeks.  So these are catch up numbers that reflect my progress this year:

Fabric in  this year:  5 yards

Fabric out this year:  26.5 yards

Yarn in this year:  14665 (clearly not a good cold sheep year)

Yarn out this year:  10059 yards

If I could knit 4606 yards by Dec 31 I would break even!!!

One Monthly Goal October

 I will still be working on the same quilt, Vintage Rouge.  This month I will start the applique borders. There a four of them.  My goal is to applique the stems--8 of them and 4 Dresden poinsettias.
