This week, thanks to my Making Christmas list, I have been listening to the hum of my sewing machine for about 30 to 60 minutes every night. I am 10 strips out of 15 into my 23 log cabin blocks for my Northcott BoM. A lot of sewing but still so much further to go. PLUS, I only have 3 of my 12 actual BoM blocks done. However, this time last week I just had a bunch of strips of fabric, so I am focusing on the progress. As slow as it is....
I have made progress on other items on my list, but it has meant I have started two new UFO's. The fabric below is for my cardinal pillows. This is all from my stash, which makes me very happy.
I also added to my stash this week. I decided to make Tree Napkins for my children's teachers. That required new fabric, right? Of course! The plan is to use something from my stash as the second fabric. Once I actually make a decision, I will be sure to share.
