I haven't reported for two weeks – mostly because I didn't have much to report last week.
This week I finished 2 sets of postcards (1 yard each), the Christmas quilt (6 yards for the front, 6 yards for the back and pillowcase body and ½ yard for the pillowcase trim). Saturday Kim and I went shopping to Quilting Adventures. I bought 2 yards of medium gray to use as photo backgrounds and 4 yards to overdye. The gray is already in use and the other will be added after it's dyed.
I think this is about as far as I will get to my goal for the year. I don't expect that I will complete any more large projects. I'll take 85 yards though, that's pretty good!
- This week IN: 0
- This week OUT: 14.5
- YTD IN: 171.5 yards
- YTD out: 257 yards
- NET OUT: 85.5 yards (Goal 100 yards)
Here's the list as we last saw it:
- Christmas postcards – done!
- Cat cross stitch – trudging along
- Log cabin blocks – no progress
- Borders on the next quilt to quilt - Christmas Gift quilt – quilt is DONE!
The new list – this one is for the month of December:
- Gift box for Anne's birthday gift
- Tie dye 5 shirts for gifts
- DSM quilting samples
- Gift boxes for Christmas gifts
- Finish log cabin blocks
- Work on that stupid cat
I think you did really well at 85.5 yards. Do you think you would do as well if you weren't tallying it each week?

You've done so good in 2008. Give up sleep and you could make that 100 yard goal! :)

I think you can be more than proud of your total 85 yards that is some achievement, good for you!

So close to 100 yards! Well, the idea was to keep track of what we bought and used! And you have used more than you bought! I dug out a UFO, if I get that bound, and pull out one that even has the BINDING machine sewn on one side--well, that will make me pretty close!
