Sunday sewing

I spent a couple of hours sewing on Sunday and a bit more time doing a little organizing.  This pillowcase is done and it was made from some of the fabric I got from my friend on Saturday.  The only thing pulled from my stash was the yellow accent strip. 

I also made a couple of bindings for quilts that are ready to bind, and I got the green binding attached to it's quilt. So that will give me some hand work this week.

Setting small goals for February

I have decided that I need to set some small goals for the month of February.  My UFO list has a bunch of things on it that only need binding and labels. Lots of other UFO items are literally "in pieces" yet and need much more attention.

So I'm going to try to tackle 2 easy finishes, work on at least 1 other UFO, and allow myself to play with some new projects.  Here are my February goals:

Needing binding and label:
1.  Hugs & Kisses baby quilt (pictured here)
2.  Owl baby quilt

WIP needs lots of attention:
1. Put sashing on Terrain version of Fat Quarter Stars

NEW project:
1.  Row Robin blocks for guild project (make my 4 blocks to start project)

I love striped binding

I really love the look of a striped binding, and this cute stripe is going on the owl baby quilt. The same stripe is on the burp cloths I made to match.

This is ready to sew onto the quilt. If it had not been so chilly in my sewing room yesterday afternoon I might have gotten that accomplished yesterday. So hopefully after work today.

We are expecting freezing rain and snow tonight. Is it wrong to hope for a snow day tomorrow so that I can sew instead of work for at least part of the day? In between shoveling my driveway of course.
