What about you? Any big sewing plans this weekend? TGIF! :)

The list keeps growing...
It's Friday morning, my munchkin's at school, and I am rocking out this morning. I need good music to get my Mommy chores done...otherwise I lose focus. I'd much rather be sewing, but the amount of dust I noticed last night on my coffee table tells me that I've been a bit neglectful of the house lately, so my house is filled with the sounds of Adele and Gavin DeGraw this morning. Somehow, while singing along to my favorite music, I can bust out some serious cleaning, so that's what I am up to this Friday morning...so I can sew all weekend long!
Ooh, can you come to my house next? I'll have some good cleaning tunes waiting for you.
ReplyDeleteI have 7 blocks left to finish on the quilt I am making for my little girl's toddler bed. I WILL FINISH THIS WEEKEND, or die trying!! (this quilt is entirely a stalling tecnique, because I really want to leave her in her crib until she's 18...)
ReplyDeleteTGIF indeed! Adele does indeed rock. I do have big sewing plans this weekend - I have Monday off, too! I hope to make a set of angel potholders because of some flakery in our guild swap (frowny face), my bee block for Lynne and probably some other stuff. Hooray for sewing!
ReplyDeleteSo glad it's Friday!! and I think my house is in the same shape :o) I am going to get my Single Girl quilt top basted this weekend...maybe even start the quilting...I am VERY excited about that!!
ReplyDeleteOh man, I had to do that yesterday. Lots of errands and laundry and picking up after myself. I also had to take down some lingering Christmas decorations that were waiting for my injured self to improve so I could put them away. I miss my sewing machine, but I also have to get out in the yard today to pull some weeds. At least the weather's nice!
ReplyDeleteI am actually moving my sewing room. It currently is really tiny and very unorganized. We don't really use our guest room very much, so we are switchig them around this weekend!
ReplyDeleteI am so excited.
Today I am doing the same thing. I am cleaning my house and doing laundry. That way tomorrow I can start on my friend's quilt I am surprising her with.
ReplyDeleteIt's a catch 22 , the more you sew the more dust you create. You can't win the dust battle. But I like your idea of rocking out to Adele while you dust. I can just picture you with your feather duster and an apron...NOT! Have a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteMy house could use a little TLC as well. I posted about making my weathervane runner, I also put a couple more pics in the flickr group! Thanks again for the tutorial, I loved it!
ReplyDeleteLOVE Adele! Hoping to start swooning along with the other 500 in the QAL...just need to choose my fabric!
ReplyDeleteI cleaned the house yesterday so that I could "Swoon" all weekend. :) I'm lovin' me some Adele these days too. :) Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteNo sewing plans! I too have to focus on housework and other things. Next week, back to sewing!
ReplyDeleteGood girl, I always sew better in a clean house- so I typically try to spend my Fridays cleaning so by Friday night I am sewing. Then you are guilt free and and your sewing will be even better! Rock on!
ReplyDeleteWay to go! I dealt with the dust last weekend but I'm pretty sure I need to clean a bathroom or two. This weekend, I'm going to be Swooning - block #2 is on the agenda tonight.
ReplyDeleteI hear you on TGIF!!!
ReplyDeleteAnd maybe that's what I need to inspire me to clean - better tunes!
Love some Adele and Gavin DeGraw! Sing it out girl!
ReplyDeleteOh I have plans almost all weekend to sew! I worked today, came home via the supermarket with the 2nd half of the month's shopping, then cut up all my charms for a swap to get that out of the way, and finished a pattern review for someone (the write up bit, ie the less exciting part ;o) ) I just have to meet the guy coming to look at the hole in our roof tomorrow morning, and then the time is mine, all mine! Have fun with your weekend :o)
ReplyDeleteThe Bay Area Modern Quilt Guild has an all day Sew Day tomorrow at the Los Altos Library. We will be sewing up a storm (in the storms).
ReplyDeleteYeah for rocking out!! I stayed up WAY too late last night (this morning!!) and basted a quilt so I'm hoping to get some quilting in this weekend, maybe a bit of epp and oh yeah, cleaning!!
ReplyDeleteI have two lap quilts to finish this weekend for Relay for life they will be raffling them off.
