April Wrap Up

I know I haven't posted for a few days there is a reason I will share later on.  Here is how my April stacked up.

1.  Farmer's Wife ---Keep working on getting the rows put together.

I didn't do a whole lot with this one this month.

2.  Grand Illusion get the blocks assembled.

I tinkered and finished a handful of these this month.  Ten finished I think there are 25 total.

3.  Slow stitching-

a.  Cross stitch I really need to focus on finishing up this tractor.

Didn't really even touch this one.

b.  Words of Wisdom Redwork--I am almost finished with O.  Maybe a stretch goal should be to get to R?

I finished O, P, and am halfway done with the Q!  Not feeling well, doing embroidery is about the only thing I can really get accomplished. 

4.  Have I mentioned I have quilting to do?

I have tried, and have had some weird tension and thread breakage problems.  So not a whole lot accomplished there.  
 
5.  Bag Lady blocks.  Quilt guild is next week and I haven't made my block for the swap partner yet.  Can you tell I am a bit timid about the flannel?   I need to get it done, because next week I get a new one.

Finished the one for March

And got a move on and finished the one for April

Not a bad month overall, but not a whole lot of sewing was going on either.

I started cutting out my Swoon quilt which has been on my wish list for a long time.  Two blocks done so far.

I also prepped the part for my Aurifil 2014 BOM.  I actually finished all the stitching today.

I did clean up my sewing table, clean my sewing room, and I did manage to recover my ironing board though so it isn't quite so shameful!

 We also did some yard clean up, and some planting.  Once spring hits sewing is always a wee bit hit or miss. 

These are my tomato seedlings.  I think that is a pretty good start.

I only listened to 3 books this month.  I can't listen if I am really tired or don't feel good because I cannot concentrate. 

Do you get less done once the weather starts to warm up?
