What I'm Working On

For a while last year I was making a TO DO list.  It helped me stay on track, so I will try to get back in the habit again.  With so many projects on my PhD list, I need to stick with the plan. 

How did I do on my To Do list from Jan 11-17?

• make the burp cloth for Baby Ana Paula - it is already cut out DONE
• finish framing Little S's cross-stitch for Ana Paula DONE
• work on Stuffed Bunny as leader & ender SURPRISE FINISH
• deal with misc piles that accumulated in the sewing room PROGRESS
• make a final decision on RSC block IDEAS BUT NO FINAL DECISION 
• start the RSC block 
• work on deconstructing dress for the wedding during TV time  NO PROGRESS
• start the Carnival Quilt with my students, plan & draw their quilt squares DONE

I didn't sew much more than the 15 minutes each day since I was so tired from teaching through laryngitis each day.  But it was enough to make some progress.

TO DO LIST FOR JANUARY 18-24:

• deal with misc piles that accumulated in the sewing room
• make a final decision on RSC block
• start the RSC block 
• work on deconstructing dress for the wedding during TV time
• cut the colored border pieces for the students to sew to their squares for the Carnival Quilt  
• start students on sewing the borders to the squares for Carnival Quilt
• have students plan layout for Carnival Quilt
• have students join blocks

This will be a week of mostly sewing at school.  With the machine at school, it will a good time to focus on deconstructing the dress at home.
