We had a bank holiday and time off last week but in the end I didn't have much time to sew sadly.... On my list last week I had quite a lot in anticipation of having more time than usual too but that didn't quite work out. Although one thing I did was to tidy up my sewing area, which took quite some time I am ashamed to admit. 1.  Complete Dear Jane block F1 - little progress 2. M ake block #16 for the Modern City Scape  -  no progress 3.  Make Birthday block #17  -  no progress 4. Sew the Ravenbrook Scrap Quilt Along blocks for February, April and May  -  no progress 5.  Work on the Hexie blocks  -  no progress 6. Cut a dress or a nightdress or a PJ -  no progress 7.

 May will have its flurry of bank holidays qnd maybe (hopefully) we will see the sun again soon... I don't know whether this will help find more sewing time or on the contrary will eat up into it? Regardless I hope to have more time doing more of what I like rather than continuing to cram too much in my head and trying to juggle so many balls at once...

  Another busy month here which including a work trip in the UK for 4 days. I have managed some sewing but I've also felt really tired at times and found it difficult to find much energy. Maybe the lack of spring weather has not helped... I've managed to keep up with 2 of my quilt-along: the Modern City Scape and the Birthday blocks making a total of 11 blocks and I also made March blocks for the  Ravenbrook Scrap Quilt Along (still some catch up to do on this one...) I also finished the last block of row E (E13) for my Dear Jane quilt and attached row 5 to the first 4, which I am really happy about! And I made a new blouse out of my stash: the Drop Sleeve Top by Avid Seamstress All in all it has been a productive month considering everything else going on in the background, maybe sewing is what keeps me (relatively) sane!
