It’s been awhile since I checked in. The days go by quickly, whether or not I actually accomplish anything.

When I’ve had the energy I’ve worked in my sewing room. I have my Stash Buster top finished, as well as the top for my February UFO Challenge. I also have another block almost finished for my postage stamp quilt. One block down but a lot more to go. I must be making progress on something though as I have two bins that are empty and nothing to put in them – for now.

I started cleaning up my sewing room this morning. Most of the clutter is either hidden or put away. I listed a few items for sale on a local site; these are items that I put on another site but had no luck selling. I’ve already had someone interested in some of the items so I’m hopeful they won’t go back into my stash.

I’ve been doing a lot of reading – the books from the library keep rolling in and while I’m picking up books from the hold area I’m scouting the shelves for other books I’ve put in my list. I need to get back into the habit of reading in the afternoon as I found I was really making progress on my pile.

I seem to be avoiding my chickens and my graduation gift but I must get back to both of them. I did some rearranging of my threads this morning. I’m not sure it will make me stitch any faster but at least I felt like I’d paid some attention to the two projects.

I started to crochet an afghan and it is already almost half done. We’ve been watching curling and hockey and a new series on Prime so there has been lots of TV time. In digging out the yarn for this project I emptied another bin from the basement. I’m hoping to move the one from downstairs and the empty one from across the hall and find room to incorporate them into my sewing room. But that will wait for another day.

Now, before I lose my mojo I’m going to work on my chickens. Hockey late this afternoon so more crochet tonight.
