Snowed In
We are snowed in here...so rather than get cabin fever and bored, I have set myself a challenge to do some project each day using my stash. ( I could stay busy till Summer). I have been making things for Project Linus to sell at craft shows to make money to buy fabric. Right now, I am working on casserole carriers made from place mats. How are you friends occupying yourselves while you are home bound?
Thanks, |
I am trying to cut charm squares, so I can get the fabric off my ironing board, so I can use it to iron some clothes that I want to list on Ebay. I am also on the last corner of hand quilting the quilt for my bed, it will be nice if I can get it done before spring. I would hand quilt all day but it makes my arm sore.
Just saw your location - NC!! how much snow do you have there? |
I'm probably in the minority here but I love this time of year. It's quiet, no holidays to think about, no yardwork, just create!
I'm sandwiching a Christmas quilt that didn't get done. Improving my FMQ, which I'm happy about. It's taken me forever to get the hang of it! Many projects in my head but I also need to get my sewing room cleaned up. It's messy messy!!! |
My plan is: using the “Fabric Moratorium” method of keeping track of amount of fabric bought vs fabric used. I hope to complete a UFO every 2 months. I think I have 4-5 so it’s do-able. DH is beginning to cook :) and helps clean on Friday :) :)

I'm keeping two young grands while school is out so keeping occupied is not a problem.☺

I actually have put my machine away after Christmas to do a couple of 1000 piece puzzles I got.

Definitely taking advantage of the day off. No school. Working on a BOW using stash.
|
I'm starting on a quilt for our bigger bed coming soon. :) Also working on ufo's, and organizing my sewing space. I enjoy this quiet time of year. It's really cold outside, so more reason to stay inside and sew! :)
