So Many Things...



Do you ever have so much going on, so many lists, or so (sew?) much to do that you're not even sure where to start?  That's how I'm feeling...

School starts back up tomorrow... ugh!  I'll be happy to see my students, but not so happy to be back to the daily grind (especially since I have a busy month or two ahead....).

I have so many projects and things to finish in the next month!  I'm going to be very busy.  However, these are all things I WANT to do.

  • I started a new quilt the other day...  Really?  I already have 2 quilts waiting to be finished (both of them just need to have pieced backs and then one will go to the quilter and I will quilt one...)  Plus, I have a baby shower for my brother and sister-in-law in a month, and I need to make a baby quilt for that, too.  The good news on that one is that I already have most of the fabric and I already have a design in my head... the quilt just needs to get made.
  • I volunteered to do some semi-"secret" sewing that needs to be finished by @ the end of the month  - orders have been placed for some necessary supplies before I can proceed any further...
  • DQS13 - Doll Quilt Swap 13.... I have to make the quilt for my secret partner.... I've have an idea in my head, but I'm thinking it over to decide if I want to modify the idea a bit.  I've started collecting fabrics for this
  • 2 Open Wide Zippered Pouches - I was over at my friend Emily's the other day, and she was showing me some fabrics that she had, and I admired a print that she had... so she gave it to me!  Actually, she gave me several pieces of fabric that I admired and a couple of them are pretty hard to come by... wasn't that so sweet of Emily?  Anyway, one of the pieces,  I knew just the fabric that would coordinate with it, so I am all set to make it into a couple zippered pouches.  Oh, and that quilt I started the other day... I cut all the fabrics for it when I was over at Emily's....
..... this is just a small portion of the list... the items that are most prominent in my mind... I could keep going, but then I'd just be really tired and crabby tomorrow :(
