Shutted Down!

 Here in South Australia we have been sent in to a 6 day lockdown due to a Covid -19 outbreak. We have been told to stay at home unless you have been deemed an essential worker. This means I have had to close the shop and cancelled this week's classes. Fingers crossed this will be enough to stop the spread. We have been lucky so far, though we lost classes earlier this year for a couple of months I could still open by appointment. Not this time, even my husband is off work, where last time his job was deemed essential. 

So we will see what happens. I have received 4 orders just in time, so I will have some orders to fill and new stock to find a home for in the shop. I can asuure you I will not be sitting around. I have 4 Quiltworx projects to tackle at different stages,  So sewing will be high on my To Do List.

I have arranged a Project Uninterrupted Zoom session for the Project Uninterrupted group. At least we can get together and sew to help us stay connected. 

This is the first project I am working on, my Clockworx project.

This is where I am at, sewing the block parts together.
I nearly got all the blocks together before dinner. Four blocks left to do but I had to stop to cook dinner.

These are all the blocks I have completed. Hopefully after some shop stuff Friday morning I will be back on this project. Though I will miss the Friday girls in the classroom. 

Until Next Time

Keep Calm and Keep Stitching

One Monthly Goal- November's Goal

 

We are here at the beginning of November. Time to set November goal. Last month was a bust I didn't get close to completing it. I did make progress, if that counts.

So this month I promise to do better. I am going to work on a smaller project. This way if I can get it finished to quilt top stage I will get back to last month's project. I am going to work on my /wedding /star /table /topper.  I am at this stage of the project, I think I can make it.

I need to make a couple of melons, then I can do the four patches, cut the corner pieces to square it up and join it all together.. 
A close uo of the centre. Here goes, let's see if I can do it.  I have linked my post with Elm Street Quilts Goal setting post, so pop over and check out what everyone is working on/.
Until Next Time
