Stitching Stuff: Week 6 of 2022 from Life In Pieces


Weekends always go so fast. I'm not sure what happened to Saturday, but it's definitely Sunday now.  Last weekend is just a blur. My apologies for not posting last Sunday. I did eventually get a stitching stuff post up, but not till late on Monday. Work intervened in what should have been an uneventful weekend.  Thankfully by Monday, the issue was resolved and I was back to my regular schedule by that afternoon.  Still my stitching time did take a hit early in the week.

Stitching Stuff: Week 4 of 2022 from Life In Pieces



It was a really cold week, though yesterday was relatively nice.  I was happy to be off on Friday. I much prefer being parked in my recliner covered with a warm quilt to walking across the parking lot to work when the temp was 8 F.  Speaking of work, it has started to pick up a bit, we worked late a couple of nights.  Even so, I still managed to get in a bit of stitching time when we got home.

  • 15 minute days/Jan = 22/22 days
  • 15 minute days/2022 = 22 ...

Stitching Time: Week 3 of 2021 from Life In Pieces


 January is more than half way over. How did that happen?  Usually this first month of the year passes rather languidly. Not this year it seems. There's lots in the sewing room that I'd like to make progress on, it's been slow going in spite of my better efforts to get to the sewing room this week.

Last week was really good on the stitching front.  

  • 15 minute days/week = 7/7 days
  • 15 minute days/Jan = 14/16 days
  • 15 minute days/2021 = 14/16 days
  • Success rate = 87.5%
I'm finally back on track ...

Stitching Time: Week 1 of 2021 from Life In Pieces

 


Welcome to the first 15 Minutes to Stitch Linky Party of 2021. February 2021 will mark ten years of me working to find even just 15 minutes of stitching time most days.  Why just 15 minutes?  That's from the statement "Anyone can do anything for just 15 minutes."  I have no idea where that came from originally.  If you search the Internet it's a common time management/life coaching statement. If you want to make changes to your life (add exercise, start organizing, learn to write) start by finding 15 minutes a day for your chosen activity. Most ...

2021 Quilting Ambitions from Life In Pieces

As 2020 winds down it's normal to look ahead to what the plan is for 2021.  Yvonne of Quilting Jet Girl is again hosting her yearly planning linky party, so it's time to commit to a written plan for next year. 



2021 Quilty Ambition #1:  Finish 8 Quilts in 2021

I've been aiming to finish 12 quilts in one year pretty much since I've started writing up annual goals.  The most I've ever finished in a given year is 7. 


As long as I'm working full time, it's doubtful I'm going to ...
