45 Minutes Per Day; Aug 31 - Sept 4
I am following Summerset's lead. I have decided to try working on the items that I intend to sell at the All-Handmade Sale for 45 minutes every weekday. If my kids were older (and if I were a more experienced sewist) 30 minutes would work for me, too.
Here's what happened this week:
On Monday and Tuesday, life drama abounded and thus I was only able to sew in my mind.
Wednesday is my big sewing day and I made up for the previous two days. I ironed handkerchief fabric, constructed a checkerboard, quilted it, and attempted to bind it.
Thursday I cut out handkerchiefs and ironed last year's unhemmed handkerchiefs.
Friday I sawed checkers. (I'm fond of power tools.)
Pretty good week. I need to figure out that quilt binding. What I hope to do is have about a half inch of binding on the back and about an inch on the front and mitered corners. I'll give it another go Monday.
