August in review

July and August were both mostly productive months, with a sewing frenzy happening every week.  It has been enjoyable sewing.  But that frenzy has begun to slow down which doesn't surprise me a whole lot.  And I strayed a lot from my original list of goals for August and worked on some other fun things that came along.  

• Monthly sew-along projects
• Saturday Sampler sections - whole quilt top is DONE
• weekly Farmer's Wife Sampler blocks - So Far - I'm caught up
• weekly Summer Soiree blocks - So Far - I'm caught up
• Simple Whatnots - NEW - NOT TOUCHED
• Rainbow Scrap Challenge (RSC21) in AQUA
• Sew set of Wisdom blocks into rows - just a little progress
• House block - DONE
• Bunny block - DONE
• Tulip Time blocks - DONE
• Bitcoin strips (new scrappy project) - NOT TOUCHED
• UFO and WIP projects - make some progress
• make more pillowcases - DONE
• 4 pillowcases for my cousin
• 2 Halloween pillowcases for grandkids 
• bind Hexie Snowman table runner - DONE
• bind purple zinnia table runner - DONE
• more blocks for Checkered Stars - NOT TOUCHED
• navy blue Sew Together bag - just a little progress
• Cleaning and Organizing my sewing space
• clean off my cutting space - NOT TOUCHED
• organize the patriotic fabrics - NOT TOUCHED

Pretty much on a daily basis I'm annoyed by the scraps that have collected on my cutting table space, but still I can't seem to get it cleaned off because I keep PLAYING in those lovely scraps.  So I'm just going to enjoy the process and at some point I'll get that space cleaned up again for awhile.
