Since I've give up my regular dyeing schedule I've discovered that I have a ton more time. I don't think I realized just how much of each day was spent dyeing, washing, ironing, photographing and listing fabric. I've been able to catch up on a lot of house-related things and I have a lot more creative time.  Yesterday I got to work on a few things. First I got two more veterans quilts loaded and ready to quilt. These are both my quilts and I should have them quilted by Sunday. I have 3 more sets to do before the July meeting and that should be a problem either.  Then I made another set of string blocks for the batik quilt. I think I'll try to get a set done each day and that means this will be together in 6 days.  I finished the day by cutting out the chicken blocks for the farm quilt. I have pigs, sheep, strawberries and bees left to do and then this will be ready to pack up for Maine.
Today.....more of the same!

Time is such an amazing factor in our day to day to say nothing of the flow of the year.

Isn't it amazing when we close one chapter, we come to realize how much time and effort it took. And the open time is such a breath of fresh air. Loving your veteran quilts. I made a QOV (your "Strength pattern" using the fireworks fabric. I need to make another one of that pattern, loved it.

You will likely be surprised at how quickly it seems like your time is "maxed out" again. 6/14/2024 07:39:16 am
It is amazing how much time can be eaten up that you don't realize. Feeling free to decide how you want to spend your day is lovely, isn't it!!

I'm sure it's a huge relief not to be facing all that dyeing and ironing and not only from the standpoint of the freed-up time.

I know exactly what you are talking about with time in such. I know you will fill it up with all that you want to do also! But don't forget to take a break and enjoy the quiet moments. Me I read a lot lately! Comments are closed.
