Baby Steps

I finished up a quilt this week which made me very happy, but I'm a little slow getting anything else done around here of late.

I did manage to get August's Blogger BOM done, but it took me WAY longer than it should have.  Have you ever had those times where no matter how hard you're concentrating you keep making mistakes?  I had to pick out just about everything at each step of the way.  It's not even that difficult of a block.  When I finally got down to the final row to sew I thought, "Phew.  So glad I'm finally done."  Then I realized I sewed the row up side down - really?!  Sigh. 
It's done, but I don't have anything else to show for my week.  I have all of my fabric ready to start the Grooves Quilt Along, but it still remains untouched.

Other projects
Quiet Book - It still hasn't been long enough since I cut out all of those felt socks to want to put this together yet.
Cupcake & Roar Quilt Tops - need to be layered and quilted
Christmas blocks - no progress
Halloween Wall Hanging- no progress

Do.Good Stitches - Up to date, but the September block has already been posted

Stats for the Week:
New projects - 0
Completed projects - 1
WIP- 7

  1. The quilt looks great. I have many times done something and had to undo it straight away - many times. I usually need a break then!

  3. I had a day like that today! I should have just walked away but I kept at it. As long as you get it in the end I guess it's okay. I love that baby girl quilt by the way!

  4. The worst is when you are going along thinking everything is going great, not even noticing you've made a major mistake until you thinking you are all done! At least you were catching your mistakes along the way :)
