Stash Report Week #35 and 15 Minutes

 Alas, the stash report remains where it is.  I anticipated getting most of the quilting done on my 16 patch quilt, but that’s not what happened, and that’s okay.

I worked on my hexagon quilt every day, and I even found my graph paper to work on the edges!  I need 16 different “units” to fill in the edges, but fortunately I have a few more months before I need to have them cut and ready to go.

I’m recalling loving my cathedral windows work.  The main piece is all stitched, so now it’s adding a backing and then some bakjwi maedup (bat knots).  I spent years avoiding much handwork beyond my hexagons as my back would get a numb spot and my hand would cramp, but it looks like I’ve relearned s few good habits and am happily on my way.

Hopefully you get to spend some quality time moving the 15 patch quilt along. Enjoy your hand stitching. I've found that the chair I sit in is really important to avoid back problems and my hands going numb. Glad you've found a work around to avoid those problems.

August Block Count

 I thought I wrote this, but it seems to be lost somewhere or I never wrote it at all… August was a quiet block month, with only 42 16-patch...
