Monday Morning Star Count

Lately, in an attempt to bypass the political chaos news from the US, I’ve been watching programs from stitching and quilting channels on YouTube.  I’ve seen a number of programs about finishing old “started but unfinished” projects from years ago. Aha! I’m not the only one! It is satisfying to see fabrics and partial projects coming out of plastic tubs and to hear about whether or how these things can/will be finished. I want to focus on either finishing or repurposing my old unfinished projects this year.  I’m inspired.

Year 3 of the temperature quilts is only about four years old, so not that old, but still, it needs to be finished. This week I spent a good deal of my stitching time doing the hand quilting. I quilted all of the horizontal lines of the blocks and started quilting the center and around the hexagon weeks.

Sometimes something good comes out of the chaos!
Yes, I want to focus on 'getting on with' a number of my UFOs and also the projects that were planned years ago but not yet started.
Keep up the good work, Pamela.

Oh my yes, many a thing started that is yet to be finished, not quite as many as the planned and materials already in my home that have not as yet made a start. Other things push their way ahead in the Q for one reason or another, but a finish is a finish, new or WIP so I guess we shouldn't get too hung up on the order we get them done in.
