350 Block Project 2021-January Report

 

We are at the start of a new year of reporting for the 350 Block Report 2021.

During January I made the following

12 diamonds for my Lakeshore Sunrise quilt which completed all my diamond blocks and 12 flying geese blocks. Pieced 8 sections together to complete my Lakeshore Sunrise top. Total 32.

8 blocks for my Glacier Star quilt 2 of ech colour.

 16 Blocks for our Summer Challenge

Some secret sewing was done for a total of 32. I will be reveal the projects later this week so I can only share a snapshot of one of the projects.

 This month total is 88

This years total is 88.

A great start to the year. this gives me a little cushion for the busy months when I can't sew as much.

Until Next Time

One Monthly Goal- January's Finish

 Our first challenge of the year is over.  How did I do? I have started a Stitching Diary for this year called My Stitching Snapshot. A way to encourage myself to do a few stitches every day and to prove to myself I am making progress.  I am hoping I can complete more goals that I set myself. Even if I don't, a few stitches every day is good for the soul.

I started the year off with an English Paper pieced project that I started back in 2019. You can see my goal setting post here.  One block is all I had to do.

Here it is. Yes it is missing the centre but I am leaving all the centres to the end because I am think I may make all the centres the same.

I have linked my post with Elm Street Quilts post so pop over and check out how everyone did and maybe you will join us in February.

Until Next Time

My Stitching Snapshot #4

Here is my weekly round up of sewing in one place. You are welcome to join me stitching a little bit everyday. We will make good progress, well I hope we will.

Sunday's stitching involved finishing these flying geese units for my Lakeshore Sunrise.

Monday saw me do a few more half snowball blocks.

Tuesday was Australia Day, so I had a little extra time to cut fabric and sew two rows on a shop sample. Nice to sew something different.

Wednesday's sewing was a little bit of EPP bringing me closer to finishing this block off.

Thursday was a busy day, so I only managed a little sewing time to start these blocks, another shop sample in the making. I am hoping to have the two new shop samples ready for the Great International Craft Show starting on Thurday 4th February.

Friday's sewing saw me get my other 2 quarters made up and sewn together, leaving me one seam to do on Saturday.

Of course Saturday's stitching had to be be this one last seam. I also did some secret sewing too which I will share on Thursday on my Facebook page as part of the Great International Craft Show.

Until next time

Keep Stitching
