I do miss him quite a lot.  Not feeling very profound about it all.  

Just missing him.

Lobster, Butter, Big Grin

Too productive to take photos...

... that's my story, anyway.

First week of January:

• The relocated UFO's were sorted & organized at the Vancouver Branch.
• Broken dishes binding was completed,
• Spousal unit's quilt was also bound.

Last week (in spite of stomach flu):

• Baby Martin's quilt got a label & can leave the house.
• Libby's bunny got binding & a label.  Ready to get shipped out!!
• Broken Dishes - also labelled & waiting for transport to Japan!
• Pieced the back for baby jasper & it's sandwiched, ready for quilting

Oh - I've settled on a pattern for 

the ongoing crochet project.

As of bedtime Sunday, 

my count is at 6.

Next up:

• Photos!!
• Quilting for Jasper
• Start a larger crochet project
• Label spousal unit's quilt
• Clear the sewing room bed (yikes)
• (random year end accounting crap because work..ick)

Star Time

Epiphany.  Stars.  Words.

I don't have time to elaborate but if you've made it this far you probably already know.

New art for this year:

Welcome to 2019.  May you find meaning...somewhere.

Finished is the new Perfect.

After shifting an impressive pile of fabric to the Vancouver Branch, it was clear that I need to work on my follow thru!!!

So - here's the list:

• Piecing partially completed
• half hexi baby quilt
• Tiffany stained glass
• On-point QAYC strips
• Pulse
• Pieced - Needs borders before quilting
  • Turquoise disappearing jelly-roll...thing
  • Tula - Acadia (huh - remember the fabric line but not the quilt pattern...)
  • Random 4 patches with blue minky
  • Pink/red/white split rail with fox minky
  • Loly's baby
• Sandwiched - ready to quilt
• Mystery quilt in yellow to red
• Scattered Showers
• Quilted - Needs binding & label
• Improv Project (à la Joe Cunningham) in orange & yellow
• Spousal unit's Asian themed BOTM
• Libby's bunnies
• Broken Dishes for my belle soeur
• Rainbow diagonal jelly-roll race
• 2 seam X-blocks in yellow & batiks
• Quilted & bound - needs label
• Baby Martin
• The Random ones
• Neeky's cousins - needs binding
• Wall hanging for Neeky - needs sleeve
• Vintage butterfly - repair or frame up??
• Pentecost banner - serious remediation required

That's a little bit exhausting.  One at a time, right?  But that's 18 quilts + 4 misc projects that are each 1-2 days from being DONE.  That would jump start the year, right?

Stay tuned....
