TTMT #359 - jewells68 - June 30, 2020 - Hoopin' it Up

This week I'm talking about sorting, and purging, and getting rid of junk, as well as how things are going with the q-zone hoop quilting frame, and an upcoming T-shirt Quilt project. I cut out nearly 12 minutes from the original video because ramble ramble ramble, ummmmm... You're welcome! ;)

TTMT #358 - jewells68 - June 23, 2020 - Back in the Saddle Again!

I actually finished quilting, binding, and labeling my first Project Linus quilt since early this year, yay! I'm having to use batting scraps since I can't get new Linus batting, but that's ok, it just means fewer batting scraps stored in my Project Room. I've also paired 4 of my 5 remaining Linus tops with backing, and I have left some scraps out to use in the Side by Side QaL blocks that I need to finish. It feels so good to finally be finishing some things, or at least moving them along another step. I need batting, and probably just going to order some unless I hear we are having a Linus drop off in July. I'm glad I filmed yesterday, because we have thunderstorms moving in today. One day at a time... one quilt at a time!

TTMT #357 - jewells68 - June 16, 2020 - A Time to Sew

In which I talk giving my coworkers some fabric masks and gearing up for the new Project Linus 2020 Mystery Quilt. Yes, it's already almost time for this year's mystery quilt! Hard to believe, but it's true. The time has come to start quilting again. I'm ready.

My first post-mask craft project was making myself a belt from a leftover bit of cotton webbing from my December/January grocery tote endeavors. Had the perfect sized d-rings on hand! Pleased with the easy, fast results.

TTMT #356 - jewells68 - June 9, 2020 - Stuff and Notmuch

I've been plugging away here and there on finishing masks for my coworkers and to donate locally. And working on stuff here in my dilapidated, 60+yo house/yard, where everything is breaking or falling apart... when I'm not working.
