I love Mondays - and especially the Monday of the week before vacation! It will be a super busy week as I get everything ready, but the anticipation makes it all worth it.
But first, let's see what happened with last week's list....
1. Finish assembling the t-shirt quilt top.
2. Quilt and bind the t-shirt quilt.
Done! I'll be delivering the quilt tomorrow, just in time for the little girl's treatments which begin Friday morning. I'll share more pictures on Friday with a bit of the story...
3. Divvy up the thank you gifts for Hands2Help, and then contact the sponsors who will be shipping directly with contact information for the recipients.
4. Package up all the rest and get them in the mail!
I am overjoyed to say that Hands2Help 2021 is all. wrapped. up! All the packages have been mailed, all the sponsors who were mailing directly have been connected with their recipients, and an email with a special gift has gone out to all those who finished the Challenge. If you participated and haven't received the email, check your spam folder - the email was sent to a large number of blind copies and that sometimes causes them to be bounced.
If you still can't find it, email me directly at
salliesue57 (at) gmail (dot) com.
And I did get a few other things done, too! I've been working on a special project for Scrappy Wednesday, and I made some headway on it this week. I'll be sharing more on Wednesday....
And today I did something I've been considering for quite a while - I moved around some of the furniture in my studio! It's just a start, there's much more to be done and the rest of the room looks like a bomb went off, but I think I'm going to like it. Maybe I'll get Lilli to help me with the rest of it!
And now, here's what I'll be doing this week...
1. Pack up my sewing machine for vacation - she deserves a little fun in the sun, too!
2. Organize everything we need to take with us.
3. Spend a fun morning with the munchkins.
4. Write two blogposts and schedule them in advance.
It's a short list, but it's also a short week with a lot to do! And unfortunately, my brain is already at the beach - if I didn't have my lists, I'd be in trouble!
So now, the only thing I need to know is - - - what are YOU working on this week?
Hugs!
Sarah
Phew, that is a lot of organising to do, but the quilt for the wee girl is the loveliest of all. I send all good wishes, and lots of love and hope to go with your quilt.
ReplyDeleteThank you for all your hard work on Hands2Help!
ReplyDeleteOoh, my "prize" of a bundle of Stonehenge 10th anniversary fat quarters and Amy Smart's Sugarhouse Star pattern arrived today. And so did the thank you note from the Little Lamb's Fooundation. Happy Day. Enjoy your vacation, you've really earned it.

What a great way to wrap up a very busy time! Nice job on the room rearrange!
ReplyDeleteSarah, you deserve this vacation! I received my gift for Hands2Help and was thrilled. It is such a bonus for such a great cause. Thinking of quilts for next year!
