Studio Post #21 - Five in One: I Lost a Month

 If I had blogged each week, this is how it might have looked . . . 


May 26 - Nothing. I had a bin of sewing projects prepped and packed for our twelve days at the lake. I did not, however, open it.


June 2 - Nothing. Again. Too darn busy with this, that, and the other.


June 9 - Frenzied preparation for the quilt show! I sewed a sleeve onto the back of Benjamin's Trail. I added a second sleeve (regulation directions) over the sleeve on my God Heals wall hanging. I made a second fabric quilt bag for entering my work. I worked feverishly on the 2024 Challenge which I called Morning Glory. 


June 16 - In Duluth on Monday, June 10, I finished stitching on the "leaves" of my Morning Glory and added the hanging sleeve. It was done "enough" and I hope to add the rest of the detail later this summer. The quilt show was both wonderful and exhausting. I should have lots of lovely pictures, but I'm just playing catch up on my blogging. But I had THREE things in the show this year! No ribbons, but I had THREE things in the show!


June 23 - Last week, I mostly just put away things from my MN Quilt show trip and worked. And had a grandma day. And packed to come up to the lake. I have my small hand-stitching bag with me and may work on some hexies later. I just needed to get back on track with my blogging. I hope to actually do some sewing this week so I have something more significant to post next Sunday!
