More in 100 Day Challenge 09-04-21

I wrote and posted pictures the other evening about committing to the SAQA 100 day challenge.  I am already tired of the rigid blocks and am trying another use for the precut squares.  I fused a layer of Wonder Under to the back of an old plaid, Removed the paper and started laying down a sort of "color wash" style.  I have ironed down about a third of the squares needed.  It will be a background for something - tree, bird, cat, dog, whatever!

Limping and Sewing 08-28-21

That darned sciatica is back again.  I'll call Monday to see about having another spinal injection.  And, of course, I am still doing PTherapy.   KoKo and I walked yesterday and today, but only about half the distance we usually do.  Walking is painful, but not horrific, however standing for more than a minute or so is excruciating!  I'm doing extra exercises periodically during the day and they do seem to help.  

I have signed on for a SAQA 100 day "challenge" which requires at least 15 minutes of creating every day.  So far I have used my precut scraps (1", 1 1/2", and a few 2") to make blocks that are not fused nor pieced, but just stitched to a 5" white background. No measuring, just eyeball the divisions and line up, so they are a little wonky at times. There are 17 so far, but I will move on to something else for a week or so.
