May Challenge - Finish Something
Hi everyone, welcome to the May challenge. This month the challenge is to dig out your UFO's (UnFinished Objects) and finish something this month! I think we all need to have this goal once in a while. Post below your plans for what you will finish this month!

@Karen Dupaix well, Ive been sitting jn my chair since about 6 (9 now), have yet to pick up any if the above to actually work on. This is the thing, I need to just do a little bit each night to keep myself sane, and at the same time Im trying to relax, make a menu plan (really not relaxing), and put together a grocery order (even less relaxing). My stress and anxiety levels are getting higher and higher.

Well, I spent some time working on the cotton blanket...... but most of the hour and a half I was actually chatting in a livestream and premieres...... Think I'll count it as half an hour. Lol.
May Challenge?

@Karen Dupaix ohhh, I don't know. Work has picked up and I basically get home and collapse, but instead of picking something up I either fall asleep or stare at a screen. My stitching keeps me sane though, so I need to do something. I'm struggling to finish quilting a lap quilt, it is probably a week from being done if I'd pick it up and do a little each day. I started but didn't finish cutting my next quilting project, and it didn't make it back in bags, so now I need to find everything because my cats have slid stuff off the table twice. I have a crochet bag that just needs leaves to be finished (my first colorwork project, it is a strawberry with a bunch of scrap yarns). And then I have a couple mending projects that need finished. Mending in May could work. Or May Mending Mayhem? Once I pass the Mending projects the piles are bra making and pattern adjusting.

@Janet Eddy how is the double wedding ring going? I havent done any EPP, but it seems like maybe a good option for some of the more elaborate patterns.

I learned how to piece half square triangles! Not sure what Ill use my practice pieces for, but I am starting to cut fabric for a wall hanging that requires half square triangles for a good chunk of the quilt pattern. :) OH, and I guess I learned how to fussy cut motifs out of fabric too..... but that is not going tk be a normal thing.... way too much waste and not enough patience. 🤣
