To Do List for the Week of 11/20/2023

I'm really not ready for it to be Thanksgiving.  But now it's just a few days away.  Maybe that's what motivated me this week, I definitely made a dent in my rather long to do list. 

 

To Do List for the Week of 11/14/2023

1. Malted Mystery: Finish clue 4, start clue 5 ✔

2. Scrappy Butterflies: Prep fabrics, design back, cut back 

3. Rhododendron: Finish sewing sashing and blocks, start borders 

4.  Wild and Goosey: Make 2 orange blocks 

5.  Chilhowie : Leaders and enders project 

6.  Fabric organization: Cut/sort scraps, press yardage 


Very surprised to check off the entire list from last week.  Projects are definitely moving along. Though it may be slower going from here on out due to commitments during this holiday season.  My plan is to just enjoy whatever time I have in the sewing room and be happy with any progress. 

We'll have lots of family stuff going on the next few days so this week's list is going to be pretty simple. 


To Do List for the Week of 11/20/2023

1.  Butterfly Medallion: Take a few stitches. 




I've not worked on this since Christmas last year.  If I can find a good place to sit and stitch while we are visiting maybe I can make some good progress on this panel.  

2.  Enjoy the Thanksgiving holiday with my family

So it's a really simple list for next week.  But some weeks you just need simple. I'm sure next week's list will be just as long, if not longer, than last week's list. Linking up with The Quilt Schmilt: For the Love of Fabric for To Do Tuesday. For those in the US, have a very Happy Thanksgiving!

This is a good week for some slow stitching and family time! The rest of the to-dos will still be there next week. Your butterfly medallion is a beautiful piece - hope you get a chance to work on it!

Woo Hoo on completing your goals last week! You were very busy. Oh my butterfly medallion is gorgeous. I can not wait to see your progress on this one. Have a very Happy Thanksgiving, Kate.

What a stellar week you had getting things moved forward. Are your butterflies counted cross stitch? They really are looking wonderful. You are so smart to plan only 2 things to do this week. Hopefully you've had a wonderful Thanksgiving day and you are able to work on the Butterfly Medallion.
