Our internet equipment failed & even though the HOA escalated our ticket, the company took 9 days to get out & replace it. That was trying, as so much of life depends on the internet. We did some things on our phones, but it was difficult, plus our cell coverage wasn’t powerful enough to hot spot our computers, so I did my service mission hours at the local FamilySearch center. As far as sewing, I got the RWB pinwheels all together & started a pile for Many Hands Many Hearts. That makes 3 red WIPs finished up.
Since this is the year for finishing, I’ve been working on my really old hexie project in the evenings, rather than binding quilts. Here’s my Easter morning: Tabernacle Choir at Temple Square with a pink hexie finished up for April.
Now, on to April’s pink projects. On the right are my pink houses for On the Town, so one of three monthly RSC2026 projects checked off. On the left is my 2024 Breast Cancer Awareness quilt that never got finished that year. It was a kit that I got on sale, made 11 star blocks, then set it aside & forgot it. This week, I finished the stars, made the strip sets & subcut for the chain blocks, assembled some of those & added sashing to the first two rows. Yay for pink!
Filed under boring but necessary task duty, I made bindings for 4 quilts & sewed them on by machine, then cut & processed all the trimmings from the 4 backs & put them away properly. Then I prepped a whole bunch of orange peel blocks for Monday morning hand-sewing group. It does feel good to organize & get on top of things.
Wonderful RWB pinwheels, and love those pink blocks with the hearts in the center. We almost go into panic mode when we lose our Internet connection. Glad it hasn’t happened often lately. LOL
I love those star blocks with the hearts in the center, Sue! They’re making a gorgeous quilt! Sorry you had to deal with that internet outage – you’re so right about how much we depend on it these days.
You have been busy, busy, busy, well done!
No TV streaming, hard to blog or comment on other blogs, hard to fill out forms on phone, etc. Ugh! We went old school for entertainment by watching DVDs & getting an antenna to get channels from the air!
I love the star blocks with the cute heart. Pretty other blocks too. Sorry about the internet equipment failure and the time it took to fix it. I hate doing things on the phone and try to avoid it as much as I can. This year is for finishes too. I’ve been a bit on slow motion lately, doing other needed things. All the best on your finishes!
We do what we can & it’s all good! Whatever you finish is a win!
i love those pinks – what great blocks!
so sorry about the internet going out, that truly is a challenge these days!
