Post from the Past

I was reminded of this post from November 3, 2018. It brought back a lot of memories! Hope you Enjoy this Flash Back!

October Finishes & Other November Goals

I was surprised at how much sewing I got done in October (in addition to my Knee PT). As usual, some of my time was spent cleaning and just looking for fabric.

Finishes:

** I made some Luggage Tags to be used as Name Tags at our Fall Retreat.

2018-10-31 Name Tags/Luggage Tags for Quilt Retreat

I reworked a pattern I found on the Internet and was pleased with the result. I still hope to write up a Tutorial to post.

** I made a little zipper bag for the 3-year-old son of my Home Health Physical Therapist. She is wonderful! She worked with my husband 3 years ago when he had his two knees replaced, so I definitely wanted her to help me in my recovery.

Gift Bag – Including a Bottle of Bubbles and Stickers

** I finished binding & added a label to a Queen Topper Quilt. You can read about it here, and I will post more pictures and details later. Plus made a companion Pillowcase to match.

2018-Oct – Binding Completed, Label added, Pillowcase Made

** I made a mini quilt – “My Motto” for a quilt retreat door prize (ok, still working on the binding).

** Finally, I made more Kennel/Shelter beds for my local quilt shop, Capital Quilts. I understand more have been sent out to comfort shelter animals affected by the recent Hurricanes (Florence & Michael).

** Graduated from Home Physical Therapy to Out Patient Physical Therapy. My knee is getting better & stronger, but more work is needed.

Exercising my new knee will continue to take up a lot of my time, but I do hope to have some sewing time. November Goals:

** I will be attending a Quilt Retreat in the Blue Ridge Mountains, and am packing a few projects to work on, which include

## From My Carolina Home’s Autumn Jubilee Projects – Pumpkin Blocks & Star Blocks for a Table Runner or Small Quilt (haven’t decided) and Pumpkin Placemats

## November One Monthly Goal (OMG) – Fall Placemats from the Prize I won in August. I wrote about this here.

## Tulip Time Wall Hanging – I got the fabric for this back in March.

Well, I’d better get my knee moving. Hope you are getting some stitching time this weekend.

Now Back to the Present…

My morning started with an annual doctor visit. Once that’s over I have a lot to do in the sewing room!

Hope you are making progress on whatever you are stitching this week!

Happy Stitching!
