Been Busy...

I've been very busy this week trying to get a few things off my work desk (literally - all my projects are in containers on my work desk.  It's very crowded and messy, and truly, I can no longer work like this.  I'm too embarrassed to show a picture of it.  To top it all off, I've been collecting "Row by Rows" like everyone else I'm sure, and those have been taking space.  At present I have over 50 of them (yes I know that's crazy), half from Canada and the other half from the US.  What does that mean?  Another project to make two queen size quilts.  It's starting to get too much!!! So what does this all mean?  This week I've been finishing off projects that I've "almost" completed, and promising myself again, that I will not buy any more fabric, but use what I have.  I've also said to myself that that's it, I'm catching up on the actual BOM's that I started this year.  But once again, what does that mean?  It m

Road Trips for the Row by Row Experience

Well, there's been a number of road trips for rows in Washington State with my husband (on the way to baseball) and in BC with my best friend.  There's also been some phone calls to relatives, and friends picking them up and in total I have about 25 Canadian rows and 27 Washington/Arizona ones.  Now what you may ask?  Will I make them all?  YES!!  I'm going this weekend for 2 more (husband's idea) and this past Thursday I have a "Row by Row" sewing party with friends (which is always nice to do). Did we get stuff done?  I did manage to get two done, and sort though my stuff. Here's some pictures of the rows I've done so far.... Not bad?  Two more almost completed.
