A weekly note from Tasha Quilts

Happy Friday Eve!

Things are calming down here! The husband still is recovering from his battle with the lawn mower, but everything else has remained calm. I'm grateful for that. I'm so appreciative of a boring week of just the normal life stresses!

This past week I decided to start publishing monthly videos on my second channel on the behind-the-scenes progress of "Tasha Quilts" the business. I'll be sharing wins, mistakes, numbers and lessons along the way. It is a new channel, so don't forget to like and subscribe if you want future updates. I'll also mention when I publish a new video in my newsletter.

From My Sewing Room

I finished up this pillow testing out a pattern with one of the fat 1/16th bundles listed in the shop. The pink is pretty bright, but I like the way the pillow itself came out. This is even washed. I love how soft it is and have already made second one in the Blossom and Sage Bundle. I'll show that off next week! Or you can take a look in this week's vlog.

Weekly Poll

In last week's poll, I asked if you sew more or less during the summer.:

  • 27% of you said less because you are out enjoying the weather
  • 41% said more, because you're hiding from the heat
  • 32% said other - and sent me an email!

I got lots of emails talking about so many that have changed your sewing habits - from non-air-conditioned sewing rooms, caretaking for loved ones, surgery recovery, enjoying your gardens or families - or even the opposite - sewing more because that is where the air conditioning is! And a lot of you said you sew the same amount year-round! So fun chatting with you all! Which leads me to my next question - what is your favorite quilting season?

Thursday Thread A weekly note from Tasha Quilts Happy Friday Eve! I haven't gotten much sewing down this week. However, the husband did get to the doctor and got cleared to walk and drive - and hopefully he will be back to work in a few weeks. If you haven't been following along with this saga, he had an accident with this foot and his lawn mower. His big toe did not fare well in this fight! While I haven't been sewing, my friend Fallon over at Sew Be It Quilts is stitching up some fabric she...

Thursday Thread A weekly note from Tasha Quilts Happy Friday Eve! For the most part, we had a busy but uneventful week. No hospital stays or major plumbing issues. We'll take that as a win! I haven't had a bunch of time in my sewing room, but I've started laying out blocks for a special project. At the day job we have a tradition where the first time someone has a baby a bunch of people contribute quilt blocks and we make them into a wall hanging. I'll be assembling the below blocks into a 4...

Thursday Thread A weekly note from Tasha Quilts Happy Friday Eve! Last week I mentioned that things were improving with my husband's recovery. Well, this weekend threw us another curve ball, and he had to have another surgery this past weekend. He's home recovering now and we're taking things one day at a time. Because of everything going on, I wasn't able to get a new YouTube video out this week. The past six weeks have been a good reminder that family always comes first. However, my sewing...
