Studio Organizing, Week 44

Posted on October 29, 2015 by prairiemoonquilts in Studio Organizing Challenge

Another drawer cleaned out! It’s amazing what you find when you dig through a drawer you haven’t opened in probably a year. I figure if I haven’t looked in it for that long, I probably don’t much need the stuff that’s in there, right? I found a whole stash of fancy little zippered pouches — […]

Studio Organizing, Week 43

Posted on October 22, 2015 by prairiemoonquilts in Studio Organizing Challenge

Well, I managed to do away with a few magazines, and I neatened up the pile, but . . . most of it is still there, and will still need to be dealt with again in the future. Some of these tasks are just more than I can handle in one week! How about you? […]

Studio Organizing, Week 42

Posted on October 16, 2015 by prairiemoonquilts in Studio Organizing Challenge

How’d you do this past week? Don’t ask me how I did, because it should be obvious that I don’t even know what day it is, since I didn’t get this posted yesterday! Are your needles all neatly organized now? I know you’ll find this hard to believe, but mine are. I needed this task […]

Studio Organizing, Week 41

Posted on October 9, 2015 by prairiemoonquilts in Studio Organizing Challenge

I’m a day late posting this. Simply because . . . I’ve been running a day late with everything I’ve attempted this week! Did you make any extra progress this past week? The task I chose was “Eradicate a pile”. I had made a total mess of my desk: It was so bad, you can […]

September 350 Blocks Report

Posted on October 5, 2015 by prairiemoonquilts in 350 Blocks Project

I meant to get this ready to post by itself while I was gone cruising, but time got away from me. I think it’s wonderful how you all just started sending me your reports anyway — thanks for looking out for me and taking the lead! I’m back home after a wonderful trip which I’ll […]

Studio Organizing, Week 40

Posted on October 1, 2015 by prairiemoonquilts in Studio Organizing Challenge

Well? Did you get a UFO under control and moved forward just a bit? Finish something? Get rid of it because you never want to finish it? That counts, you know. I do it myself sometimes. I resolved to work on my daughter’s wedding quilt, and while I haven’t worked on it as much as […]

Studio Organizing, Week 39

Posted on September 24, 2015 by prairiemoonquilts in Studio Organizing Challenge

Last week’s task was an eye-opener for me. As I gathered up handwork projects, I realized I have hand-sewing supplies scattered all over my house! Pincushions, sewing boxes, needlecases, scissors, thimbles, thread, thread, thread! I did NOT get them all under control this week. I did organize the one hand-sewing project that is most urgently […]

Studio Organizing, Week 38

Posted on September 17, 2015 by prairiemoonquilts in Studio Organizing Challenge

How’d you do last week? Did you tame a bin of fabric? I’m happy to say that I did! Evidently, I’ve used enough pieces out of my neutrals bins that I was able to combine the large bin and the small bin together into just the large bin: Which left me with a small empty […]

Brunswick Samplers

Posted on September 16, 2015 by prairiemoonquilts in My Patterns

Now that the new Block-of-the-Month has started at Sew Sweet Quilt Shop, finished quilt tops from last year’s BOM are starting to magically appear! I’m always thrilled to see something I’ve designed made in someone else’s own way. Here’s the original post with the quilt pictures of the Brunswick Sampler. Even though the colors were […]

A Veritable Sewing Marathon

Posted on September 15, 2015 by prairiemoonquilts in Guild Stuff, Quotes

I attended my guild’s fall retreat last weekend. As always, it was so much fun. We always say we don’t know how it can be any more fun than it was the last time, but it always is! I worked on six different projects, none of which I can show you just yet, but as […]
