The Scientist in Training has been home this weekend, which has been fun. This weekend was our company picnic and she's always enjoyed going to that. She got to hang out with some high school friends who were also home from college and see some of the scientists that have been mentors to her when she was in high school. It was a nice afternoon.
With the SIT home, there was no sewing time yesterday unless you count the time I spent in EQ working out how to assemble the sashing for the Vintage Dress blocks. The only thing of note I did was spend some time coloring while the visiting with the SIT in the kitchen.
I don't color very often, preferring to sew instead. But I finally finished these two pages. It was fun to just hang for a bit.
I've had to bring work home with me several times the last week and that really cut into my sewing time. I did manage to find 15 minutes to stitch every day but one. For 2017, I've managed to find at least 15 minutes to stitch 89.5% of the time. My goal is to get this above 90% for the year. It's going to be a struggle the next month with all the work stuff going on.
The lack of stitching time didn't help with the stash usage this week.
Fabric used this week: 0.33 yards
Fabric used year to date: 47.50 yards
At least being busy means that I don't have time to hit any buttons on those sale adds. No fabric in always makes for a good week.
We'll hang out with the SIT for a while this morning. She's got to be back at the dorm by noon today, she has to cover an event for the school newspaper this evening, plus she needs to study this afternoon. She gets paid for each article they publish, so it's how she's making a some spending money this semester. I'll get in some stitching time after she leaves.
Linking up with Quiltpaintcreate for this week's stash report.
