Tonight I'm going to Book Club...we haven't had a meeting for 3 month.  Really looking forward to this one.  And a new book to read.  We will be reading The Personal Librarian by  Marie Benedict.  You can read all about this book over at Amazon.

As for T.V., I'm still watching CSI Miami.  I really like these crime shows...I've also been watching CSI New York.  Well I guess that's it for today.  Hop over and check out these links.

STITCHING AND T.V.......

 What do you do while your stitching away...watch t.v., videos, listen to music.  I watch t.v. on my computer...I subscribe to several streaming services...I hate watching commercials!  I was working on my Candy Hearts, but ran out of black embroidery floss.  

So I picked up my Tiny Tiles and worked on them.  I've been pulling out some of my scraps of Novelty Fabric to use on these.

I also got my RSC Basket done...Orange.

I got 2 quilts sandwiched and one is in the hoop.

Salt and Sand is in the hoop.

And the Orange Quilt is waiting it's turn to be tied.

WHAT TO DO??????

 I've got so many projects to do right now, I'm not sure which one to do.  I do know that the Salt and Sand quilt, and the Orange quilts are getting sandwiched today....and if I have enough batting and backing fabric, I may sandwich the Indiana Leaves quilt.  I'll see how this all goes.

 

My goals for last week didn't go well.

1. Sandwich Salt and Sand....and Orange You Glad quilts👎

2. Sew another RSC 2020 row on.👎

3. Make a few more String Blocks ✔

4. Start a new embroidery project👎

I did get some  more String blocks done.  I think I may have enough to start putting this together.  I've laid it out on my design floor...it's really looking good.  

 So my list for To-Do Tuesday next week is kind of a repeat of last weeks list. 

1. Sew another RSC 2020 row on.

2. Make some more String blocks.

3. Start a new embroidery project.

Hope you all have a great stitching....

NEW MONTH OF......

September...so it's time to set my goals for this month.  I've got 3 quilts that need to be sandwiched, tied and bound.  I've had one of these on my list for a while...so I will be glad to get it finished.  It's my Indiana Leaves quilt.

1.  Indiana Leaves

2. Salt and Sand

I also want to sandwich my Salt and Sand quilt.  

3. Orange Quilt

These 3 quilts are my WOOFA, OPAM, PHD 2021, and OMG projects for September.

ORANGE......

 I've been working on my Orange Quilt for a couple weeks.  It is finally a filmsy....

I've never made an orange quilt before.  So this one is special to me.  I really like how this came out.  Now I need to pull out the cutting table and get it sandwiched.  I will be sandwiching 2 quilts.  I've also got my Salt and Sand quilt finished, so it needs sandwiched too.

 I really like the way this one came out.  I love all the different colors in this quilt.  It was all made from my scraps, The borders for the mussels, fish and clams got new fabric...a sand kind of fabric.  That's it for today.  Hope you all .....

WHAT HAVE I BEEN DOING?????

It's Tuesday...so here's my list for To-Do Tuesday, hosted by Chris over at Chris Knits.  Hop over and check out what everyone else is working on.

I've missed a week, so am using my last post as my list.

August 3rd to August 9th

1. Make more Strip Blocks✔

2. Sew more RSC 2020 blocks together.✔

3. Start working on Orange You Glad Blocks.✔

4. Sandwich Salt and Sand Quilt. 👎

 

1. I got a few more Strip Quilt blocks done.  There will be 10 6 1/2" blocks in a row.  I've got Row 1 and 2 done and 7 1/2 done for row 3.

2.  I've got 2 rows done on the RSC 2020 Quilt together.  I had to quit because sewing through 4 layers of fabric and lots of other "stuff" is hard on the fingers....as I sew by hand.  Want to know where all the embroidery stitches came from?  Check out Sharon's Pintangle blog.  She has a stitch dictionary.

3.   I started working on my Orange You Glad Quilt.  Sorry to say I didn't make the deadline to join the Blog Hop, but I really wanted to have an Orange Quilt...so I started one.  I started making blocks and before I realized it, I had 3 rows done.  I will be adding one more row and then an outside border.  This is what I have now.

 4. Salt and Sand quilt is still waiting to be sandwiched.  I'll be finishing up the Orange quilt this week, So I'll sandwich both of them.

 

My list for August 17th through August 23rd..

1.  Sandwich Salt and Sand....and Orange You Glad quilts.

2.  Sew another RSC 2020 row on.

3.  Make a few more Strip Blocks.
