For sewing the plan is 2 doll dresses per month, plus we need placemats for 10 months and I like a set of 4. My goal is to make them one month ahead of need. So I will start these in February I plan to make a couple “Bendy Bags” and “run around bags” as well as a bolts worth (about 130) of purple baby hats for the hospital. Then there is a request for the microwave bowl holder for gifts.
I am doing the yahoo groups knit along wash cloth which is monthly. They offer 2, but I’ll be happy to get one done each month. I also have enough yarn to do at least 10 pair of socks. If I can squeak them in here, I’d like to do a couple crocheted baby blankets as well.
So these are my 2016 craft goals. What are yours? I’d love to hear them.
I’m testing a quilt that will be published in April. It has a lot of applique and I’m learning to use my Scan N Cut with this. But last night I ran out of this backing which is tacky on both sides and makes my life easier, so went over to my favorite store. Guess what? It was 30% off and I had a gift card as well. I love deals like this!
I placed on the back a block with the extra fabrics. It is a pocket, and if I decide to pass it on, the particulars can be written on the black.
You can kind of see the red on this block to get an idea how it was quilted.
This was Tuesday’s purchase since our Vitamix is not back from being repaired. $5.00
Today is Azure co-op day. $76.26. The 2 gallons of honey I so much need did not come in on this order. But there is more red cabbage, some turmeric and sunchokes that I will plant and some sweet potatoes. Oh, and yes, frozen pizzas for when I just can’t cook.
I worked on these socks off and on throughout the day (it is rain now) and have progressed up to the heel, which makes me happy.
Today I did some finishing work and put small borders on it and now it will have to wait until I can stand on my leg long enough to get it quilted. This should get done about the end of this month. The surgery and having to use a walker is hampering me a wee bit.
