Today I stared my first blog. I named it One Hour on Tuesday because I have so many projects that I want to get accomplished and I decided that I would commit to one hour on Tuesday and see how much I could get done. I know from my past experience that when I spend time creating I am more effective in the rest of my life. I am happier and get more accomplished. I think it is has more to do with living my dreams and satisfying the creative cravings I have. So here goes.
Today I set aside the hour of 1-2 pm and this is what I accomplished.
I have a quilt I want to make for my sister that represents the eight states they have lived in. On Christmas four years ago I gave them the finished state blocks representing where they have lived and promised them a finished wall hanging. I made a black letter B to put right in the middle and surrounded it with the eight states they have lived. in. Today I added the sashing between the three rows of three blocks each and have sewn two of the rows together. I had to stop with one row left because my violin student arrived. One time when I went into the laundry room to press a seam I saw that there were two articles of clothing that needed pressing so I pressed the pair of pants and the dress shirt for my son and then went back to the sewing room to work on the quilt. I have posted pictures of my progress and even the ironing. Writing about it will help me be accountable and keep me moving. Just thinking about what was done today makes me smile. So here's to One Hour on Tuesday!
