Hello

I am surprised that I haven't been here since August 24.  Projects have been worked on and have already left the house.  

Here is the Peter Rabbit quilt that is a panel with a border added to it.  Easy but it was not finished.  Only the border quilting needed to be done and then to decide what to do in the animal blocks.


At church we have a book club that meets every two weeks.  Our new book is The Road Back to You by Ian Cron and Suzanne Stabile.  It is about the Enneagram, self-discovery and personality types.  (A different direction from the Myers-Briggs from my college and clinical learning days.)  I am only mentioning this because reading it made me look at my UFOs.  My number on the Enneagram says I don't finish projects as I may not be able to do them to the best of my ability.  (Smack myself on the forehead.)

I always make lists and have grand ideas.  But it is hard for me to carry through.  This is something that I have known about myself but never really put a lot of energy into improving.  

Seeing it again in writing, and I guess at the right time, things are getting completed.  Peter Rabbit quilt was begun 20 months ago.  It did not take long to machine quilt the border.  Then I hand quilted around the rabbits (and remembered the stories.  Peter Rabbit is one of my favorites. Along with Winnie the Pooh.) finished the binding and sent it on its way.

A knitted hat was also finished.  But I am not really happy with it, so it is now for a doll.  When the second is finished I will document it here, I am waiting for more pink yarn.  

Socks that were started a long while ago are being worked on and that will be my slow work today.  

When a project list is being made it is now more realistic and getting completed.  

Enjoy your threads today.  I will.
