This Week's Roundup Feb 28 2025
This week’s roundup is my weekly attempt to share things from around the web. Sometimes it will include affiliate links, but it will never include something I am not enjoying already.
Watching:
My significant other and I have decided to go back and watch Lost. Lost came out while I was in college and somewhere I am sure someone has written something about its weird relationship with its viewers. We just watched maybe the saddest of episode in the entire show and the tears were flowing.
Making:
I am hand stitching some binding to the back of my most recent quilt finishes. Yes, I do typically machine stitch to one side and hand stitch to the other, but we had a great Quilt Guild meeting last night that featured many different binding options. We even had Deonn give us many tips straight from her book (it’s a great one!) I might try a different method of binding for my next quilt
Still working on the stocking for my nephew
And finished my narwhal on my Frosted Pumpkin Stitchery Arctic Animals stitch
Reading:
My very favorite read this entire week starts out seeming very “don’t let technology ruin” or “get off my lawn” but ends with a sentiment that could have been the tagline for Make Traditions:
As our world becomes ever more saturated with images and virtualisations, we shouldn’t let our desire for alluring technologies eclipse the human need to see, touch and make things with our hands.
My book clubs are reading the following this mongth:
