The 12th Annual Final Countdown

Posted on December 28, 2020 by prairiemoonquilts in Challenges, Studio Organizing Challenge

Wow! Our twelfth year doing this, and I’m STILL not organized! Haha! I know a lot of folks are saying they will be glad to see this year behind them. Me, I’m of the mind that, just because the calendar is turning over, doesn’t mean things are going to automagically change instantly, or change for […]

Posted on September 23, 2020 by prairiemoonquilts in Challenges

Yes, it’s already that time again! That magical day when there are only 100 days left in the year! And fall has officially begun. Time for me to once again make my list of “100 Things To Do In The Next 100 Days”. I find that I’m usually too completely pie-in-the-sky with my lists, so […]

2019 Final Countdown Task Three

Posted on December 31, 2019 by prairiemoonquilts in Challenges

Well, yesterday was one of those days. I found every possible way to procrastinate (such as these), and never even stepped foot into my sewing room. But in my defense, I do have some tight January longarm deadlines, so I spent my time running the longarm, and even tho I wanted to, I did not […]

2019 Final Countdown Task Two

Posted on December 30, 2019 by prairiemoonquilts in Challenges

Yikes! I cleaned out a file drawer, started on another one, went through a pile of magazines, gathered all the paperwork I need to send to my accountant, sorted through a box of old patterns and passed the ones I didn’t want on to a friend, and found a place for the ones I want […]
