Stitching Stuff: Week 24 of 2025

 


It was another good week on the playing with thread and fabric week. Except I did a lot more playing with fabric than with actually sewing it.  I need to get a start on next year's BOM.  There is no way I'm going to be able to make a block and write a pattern each month.  I'm going to start early on that.  Still it kept me spending time in the sewing room and playing with my stash. 


  • 15 minute days/week = 7/7 days
  • 15 minute days/June = 14/14 days
  • 15 minute days/2025 = 157/165 days
  • Success rate = 95.76%

It hasn't been a bad year on the stitching time front.  I may not be 100%, but 95% isn't a bad place to be approaching mid year.  

I didn't get any stash stuff done, other than sorting through what was in the fabric closet that could be used for next year's BOM.  I found some, but ended up buying a bit too. But that's OK, sometimes you have to buy to use.  

I shared one sign from our Texas trip last week. I have another for this week. 



This little carton was painted on the west side of an orthopedic surgeon' s office.  I bet that office is a fun place to work and the surgeon is probably pretty entertaining too.  

So how was your stitching week?

  1. You are doing so well at getting your stitching time, even when your quilting mojo was MIA recently. Almost 96% is excellent! I look forward to seeing your plans for the new BOM.

  3. That is a cute cartoon, and perfect for that doctor's office! It sounds like a big job to be in charge of your guild's BOM. Good idea to start early! This week, I'm waiting for the batting delivery so I can finish Glowing Hearts. Meanwhile I'm going to work on quilting Patchwork Hearts. Lots of hearts in my week, lol!

  4. Hi Kate, congrats on your stitching time this week. Playing with fabric and thinking about projects counts in my opinion! It's cool that your chemistry books have info that isn't in new books. Sometimes new is not necessarily better!
