The 100-Day Project

2 Comments

The 100-Day Project is an Instagram series. I’m participating this year. It’s a creative exercise. Many folks post sketches or paintings. I’ve seen quilt designers posting quilt   designs.

I thought it was a good idea, but I was anxious about committing to creativity every day for three months. Instead I committed to working on my works in progress.

I’m going to hand quilt my Collection quilt and finish a baby quilt.

My name on Instagram is @wandaslifesampler. My hashtag for the project is #100DaysofCreativeProcrastinating.

See you on Instagram,

Wanda

Dressing for QuiltCon in Savannah

It’s got to be comfortable and stylish. For the flight down. (1) shoes I can remove and put on easily; (2) layers for change in temperatures (3) ease of movement.

I enlisted Stitch Fix to help me for the entire convention. They sent: a maxi dress, jeans, kimono, short-sleeved shirt and knit shirt.

The jeans were skinny and uncomfortable. The kimono was itchy (100% polyester) The short sleeved shirt had two fabrics together which I don’t like. The print on the maxi created a white stripe across my ass. I loved the colors of all the items but comfort is paramount. The knit shirt was a nice color of green and soft so I kept that.

The dress, blue/white shirt and green sweater, plus the new green knit, are from previous Stitch Fixes. Add some t-shirts and accessories. Sweatpants. Done.
