Jeez! Will It Ever Be Finished??

I hope those of you who don't have to work today on this day honoring Martin Luther King, are enjoying yourselves and doing something fun!

Gosh, I've been working on and off on this raggy quilt for a week now, and it's still not finished.   Clipping the edges of the seams to make a soft and fluffy raggy quilt takes a long time for me.  Due to a bad hand/wrist/arm I can only clip about one row, two at the most in one sitting.  Then I have to wait a day until I can do it again. 

All the rows are sewn together now  and I have 3 rows of it clipped and the outside edges.  I double sew all of my seams on my raggy quilts, and I  used a decorative wavy stitch on the "X" of the squares for this one.  It takes a little longer to make it, but I really like the effect. 

AND........I love the feel of the minky!   Where was this minky stuff when I was a little kid and sucked my thumb while dragging around my special blankie?? 

I might have to wait a couple more days to clip again..........Sigh!!!    I WANT IT FINISHED so I can put it in my ETSY store.



What about you?  Are there projects you are working on ....then you have to put them aside for some reason or other???

Fabricholic?? Who me?? I will be selling it on Ebay, and have it scheduled to start on auction on March 15th.

TOO MANY PROJECTS!

I've been working all day on my projects, as I promised myself. Here's a few pictures of my progress.

Here's some of the scarves I have been making for the gals in my family who live in the cold/snow part of the country. The pale green one is for my youngest grand daughter, so it's narrower & will be faster to make.....yippee!! My 2 sisters grabbed up 2 of them, so have been delayed in getting these finished and mailed to family.

Another flannel raggy quilt ready to be clipped. Actually, I have made 2 of them...same size, same colors. Will soon be selling them in my Ebay store:

The picture on the right is another patchwork tote that's not quite finished, but it's getting done this weekend, for sure!

TA DA!!

PROMISES! PROMISES!

I promise things to myself all the time. "tomorrow I'll do such & such, work on this project, finish up that project, start that new project.."etc.

Tomorrow comes and I only get half of it done, or none of it and have to put it on the "promise list" again. Sometimes I have to do that with my promises several times in a row.

Today's one of those "finish up your promises for the week" kind of day. The wind is blowing here like crazy and it's not supposed to get as warm as we have had.....so good day to stay inside and just FINISH ALL THE WEEK'S PROMISES.......

1. finish serging all the fleece socks for the family.
2. add one more row of squares to the yellow/pink flower raggy quilt
3. finish up patchwork tote started already
4. get decorator fabrics out of closet
5. take some more pictures for listings.
6. get Ebay orders ready to mail
7. more knitting tonight on red scarf

Whew! I hope some of these do not APPEAR on tomorrow's Promise List!.

Tomorrow......we'll see.
