I joined up with the Chookshed Stitchers 2024 Challenge for the motivation to move projects forward, and perhaps even finish a few.
Participants publicly posted a list of 10 numbered projects. Each month a number is drawn, and the corresponding project is worked on. There are linkups where projects can be posted and participants can cheer one another on.
For March, the number 4 was drawn. You can see my full list of projects by clicking here. My number 4 is to sew pajama bottoms.
I thought that I had enough fabric for full length pajama bottoms, but I ended up with a mid-calf length. That is fine with me, since that is the length that I wear the most often.
These are soft and comfy, and I am really pleased with them!
When the weather was sunny, but not too hot, I spent time outdoors raking, cleaning up woodpiles and other yard chores.
On the cool and wet days, I enjoyed bread baking and genealogy.
The Hubster and I also took a trip to visit with our son and his fam…so much fun! I got plenty of lovins to fill my cup!
The downside of the month is that my sewjo mojo got up and went. I don’t know where, but I hope to see her back soon! Possibly she left due to a toothache. That problem will be remedied this afternoon when I visit the dentist. The offending tooth is soon to be removed! I am so looking forward to this!
In January, number 6 was drawn. My number 6 was a Santa project, and you can see that post by clicking here.
In February, number 2 was drawn. I moved my 365 Monster quilt forward in progress, and that felt good. You can see that post by clicking here.
I am linking up at Dreamworthy Quilts. Come on over to see other participants!
Have fun and carry on!

Hooray for a finish, and a very enjoyable one at that. I always have a smile when I wear something I make (which is much less often than it used to be).

It is also rare for me to make garments anymore, Kathleen, but pj’s are pretty quick and easy! 🙂

Love the pj bottoms, they are perfect. I don’t bake bread but I love digging in our family history 🙂

I guess I must be getting serious about the genealogy, Sharon. I am cleaning up sources/citations. What a time-consuming task! Wish I had known more about this aspect when I started out! 🙂
