I’m excited to be participating in the Chookshed Stitchers 2024 Challenge, hosted by the lovely Deana from Dreamworthy Quilts!

I may or may not be a little late in posting my list… and in starting, but better late than never…… maybe???!!!

What is the Chookshed Stitchers 2024 (Sewing) Challenge?

It’s a challenge for a bunch of us bloggers to work on a sewing related project each month this year – well, 10 months I guess because we are making a list of 10 things.

Each month Deana will chose a number, and we will work on that project… and then share our progress.

January’s number was #6.. and since it is the end of the month already and I am only just getting this post up, I’ve decided to cheat a little and make my #6 the goal that I have actually been working on this month – organizing my sewing spaces!

Don’t worry, I’ll be good and follow the list properly for the rest of the year!

#1 ~ Heartfelt BOM

Here is where I am up to with this BOM:

#2 ~ Chicken Salad Sewalong

i need to do the machine applique on each of these blocks:

#3 ~ Kitchen Sewalong

Only four more blocks to go on this one… if I finish the blocks in the month we’re working on #3, and I still have time, then I will start putting them together…

#4 ~ Chookie’s Churn Dash

Got all the blocks done, just need to put it all together….

#5 ~ Barn Dance

A fair bit more to do on this one… it was rather ambitious but it will be gorgeous!

#6 ~ Organize Studio and Inside Sewing Area

I particularly wanted to get Emmie G clear and ready to use this year… because most of last year she looked like this:

I will do another post on my progress this month…

#7 ~ Ribbon Border Quilt

All pieced and ready to quilt!

#8 ~ Christmas in July Mystery Quilt

Also all pieced and ready to quilt!

#9 ~ Evergreen Mystery QAL – finish

This one came to an abrupt halt because I need to unpick!!!

#10 ~ Beautiful Day BOM

This one is also nearly done – just four blocks to go…

Thank you Deana for hosting this challenge – just making my list has motivated me and I am looking forward to having a bit of guidance on what to work on each month… that is other than the, ahem, one or two, ahem, other things I will probably start!!
