slow slide...

I think I've become one of those once a week bloggers, not that it's meant as any sort of negative. There are everyday bloggers and occasional ones too. Just different styles and people who have lives that require more or less attention. My life these days does NOT require more attention. NO work, kids, or extra loads of anything asking for more attention. Just the opposite rather.

In the battle of me verses the arm/hand muscles I find myself with more and more addle time and this leaves me nothing to show on the blog that I usually deemed as progress. I used to write posts about a complete subject and would go back to that, but it requires more thought than I have to give at the moment. Some where along the 2+ years I've been blogging I moved from that sort of post to the more "journal" posts: Where I am today and what I accomplished over the course of a few days. These days that seems like less and less to me.

So I leave you today with the progress of the last few days. My machine stitching comes along and I'm filling in the pieces for what I've come to refer to as the Kaffe BOM. The BOM can be found here! Be warned it's in GERMAN! But we all know links are in blue so just start clicking!

I'm also almost done stitching all the Christmas ornaments on the tree for the sampler, but those must go slowly. Once I sew the side and the rest of the top together I will add the last remaining ornaments that overlap the seam and viola! the top will be done!

Boy it's been a very long time since I said that! Oh and just in case you thought I'd have one project off the list of current works...I added one more today!! A small quilt I had quite forgotten to get started on. I picked up the magazine today and realized I had forgotten all about this 4 block quilt I planned to start "right away" a few months ago! I already have the first block almost done! This one I'll keep a secret until I have the top..or maybe the whole quilt?...completed before showing.
