My friend's little boy, Peter, arrived about a week early... time to get this quilt done!
February goal: border, baste, quilt and bind :)
I have recently found the best way for me to be productive with little Evelyn underfoot... prep at night after she goes to bed, and sew during the day - either while she's playing by herself nearby or taking a nap. Prep work usually means cutting, ironing and pinning - all things that require movement and action - all things that entice little Evelyn to come check out what Mommy's doing instead of playing with her own toys. But, if I just am sitting at the desk and sewing, sewing, sewing, I can usually get quite a bit done with her in the same room as me. Yay!
The bibs are super cute. I do a lot of my prep work during my lunch hour, so I can be productive sewing at home.
ReplyDeleteI always wonder how young mothers find the time to quilt because it's such a time consuming hobby. I see your organizational strategy makes the most of the time you can devote quilting. Well done. Good luck on your finish.
