Stitching Stuff: Week 40 of 2026


 

It was a good week on the stitching front.  I only managed 15 minutes on Monday, but I got it in before I had to make that drive home.  I've not done that much time in the sewing room, but I've made it to open sew at the quilt shop a couple of times this week. I feel more in the groove after that.  


  • 15 minute days/week = 7/7 days
  • 15 minute days/Sept = 28/30 days
  • 15 minute days/2026 = 270/276
  • Success rate = 97.83%

September wasn't a perfect month on the stitching time front, but I'm OK with that.  I'm still in the high 90's in terms of stitching time percentage.  When you think about it, just 6 days with no stitching time is really good when you realize it is October! 

It's nice to be sewing at home, but I do miss my sewing observer. 



My daughter's cat, Queenie, decided my pressing mat was prime napping territory. Thankfully she only napped on it when I wasn't sewing. It wouldn't have been fun to ask her to move.  

Did you get your stitching time in this week?

I was hoping there would be a photo of Queenie! My cats all love my pressing mat too.
I've been in my room and gotten a few things squared away, but very little sewing.

You did great with your sewing numbers!
Well, napping territory first ;)

Travel always interrupts the sewing mojo, but it's good to get away, too! I've been sewing a little every day this week. So lucky to have the time for that!

Aaw our fur babies always want to be where the action is even if they decide to nap. Queenie is precious. Have a fabulous day, Kate. Hugs.

Hi Kate, I'm glad that stitching with others helped you get back to stitching. I was away this weekend and I'm working on a very scrappy hand stitching project so I was able to pull it out while visiting family. It was the perfect thing to do and I'll keep doing that when I got out for those kind of social visits. Have a great week.
