On a Monday

I hope you all had a lovely weekend. I was able to get a small quilt basted, sew 2 and cut 2 more blocks for the variation stars quilt, finish my swoon block x-stitch, and  make this little coaster. They were all little things but I felt like I accomplished a lot. Sometimes between school, dishes, diapers, laundry, cooking, cleaning...repeat...it seems like all I do is plan for sewing and never get any done. I was happy to get a few things done this weekend. Now back to Monday and the rest of the week. Hope yours is a great one!

Happy Sewing!

    Yes, sometimes even just little finishes can help propel you through the other things on your to-do list. Love the coaster!!

    So glad your got to sew, (because we get to see your beautiful work!!) Finishes, even the little ones, feel so good. But even your 'little' projects are quite entailed so give yourself a pat on the back,,,your deserve it!!

    This is so cute I'd be afraid to get it dirty by setting a cup on it!

    I feel like that a lot too...all planning but no sewing! Glad you got to finish some of your projects!

    I love the coaster! How big are your hexies? I'm teaching a friend how to do hexies and I know she can teach me how to do those scallops.
