And I thought I was ready


Its Fresh Sewing Day at Lily's Quilts and unlike last time, this time I'm all ready and waiting.

Or so I think. Ha!  Now they tell me I can also showcase my entire year's finishes if I like!! Like? I would've loved to do that but I absolutely refuse to not use my mosaic of December's finishes! Yes, the one that I had already prepared a day in advance and was all ready with!! Anyways, here it is :-)..ta-da...


Ok, ok, that's a cheat mosaic. Its only actually two quilts. On the left is First among Equals and on the right, Bundle of Joy.

This year, I seem to have bitten off more than I can chew. Yet again. I have signed up for three (or was it four?) monthly challenges, so am hoping to learn a lot and have many more finishes for my 2012 Fresh Sewing Day mosaics :-).

Happy sewing!

  1. Just keep plugging along on those monthly challenges. You CAN do it! I have found that if I use a timer during my limited sewing time, it helps me manage working on multiple things. For instance if I only have an hour, I might do the free motion challenge for 20 minutes, then I might cut fabrics for my UFO challenge for the next 20, then I chain piece for 20 minutes. You have to me disciplined enough to listen to the timer. And yes, sometimes it seems like I am not finishing anything, but at least I've worked on 3 things which is the point of the monthly challenges - practice and progress, right?
