What a month. I had such great aspirations to have a really productive quilting month. And then we moved. And then I took a part-time job. And then I accepted another part-time job to start in the next couple of weeks. And then I remembered OPAM. And then I got overwhelmed.
But, I did manage to finish a quilt this month, but that’s only because it needed binding and tying off some quilting threads. It’s my quilt from the ’12 Days of Christmas’ line from Moda, I LOVE that fabric! One of my favorites. A week before Christmas of 2010, I said, ‘I think I’ll whip up a festive quilt real quick’. HA! 2 years later I’m just getting it finished. But, I’ll say, I’m really pleased with it. It’s hard to make a bad quilt when the fabric is this cute.
So, I now have to figure out how to be a full-time mom, work 2 part-time jobs, spend time with my husband, and still get some sewing in for myself. I’ve barely figured out how to do the first one and still get a shower in…
That seems like an overwhelming schedule! Once all gets “sorted out”, I’m sure there is a ‘routine’ in there……somewhere!?! Hugs, Doreen
That does seem like an immense schedule. I can barely fit in time for sewing with one full time job (albeit a demanding 90+ hour week) and a new Hubby. I cannoy imagine adding children to that equation and getting any time for crafts. I really hope you can keep making time for quilting as your work is beautiful. The quilt pictured is so, so lovely. Very unusual with the circles…
Well, you’re ready for this Christmas one beautiful quilt!
How do you do it all? Oh, ya, you are young(er). LOL Darling quilt! Hope your family is doing well.
Ooooh! I love circles on quilts. This is gorgeous. I haven’t tried them yet as they look difficult to do. must try soon 🙂
