Saturday Seven 381: Lifestyle & More for Quilters

1. Self-Care

I like doing a self-check in regularly. I try to look at what I’m accomplishing, what I want to accomplish, and where I want to focus my time. Here is a terrific list of self-evaluation questions. I also enjoyed this post on “How to Manage Decision Fatigue.”

2. Recipes to Try

Thai Salmon Bowls with Coconut Rice from What’s Gaby Cooking–yes, please! And this Air Fryer Garlic Lime Chicken looks like an easy weeknight meal idea. I think these Blistered Sugar Snap Peas with Honey would make a great side dish with the chicken.

3. Quilt + Sew

I love this tutorial for a Quilted Stadium Cushion! And I loved reading about this opportunity to make charity quilts for children in foster care. There is also a free pattern included on the post. Finally, Fat Quarter Shop has a Free Stars & Gingham Quilt Pattern and tutorial here.

4. Book + Podcast Recommendations

I especially loved the first segment on this week’s Deep Questions podcast. And this cookbook arrived the other night; it is so good–full of lots of simple recipes and ideas for meals. I think it will make a great gift for newlyweds and college students, too!

5. Home Organization + Decor

Week Two of the Clean Mama’s Organization Challenge is working on our kitchens. I recently did a spring refresh around my home and picked up this darling floral. I also got this darling bunny and then added this sitting bunny to my cart as well. They look super cute on my kitchen counter. Finally, I got this framed summer pasture wall art that I love. I usually just decorate for spring by changing out my table runners, so it was fun to add a few fun things to the mix this year.

6. Shop Stuff: Sherri & Chelsi

I’ve sold nearly all of my Raspberry Summer Project Packages and kits (just a few left here), but Chelsi still has several project packages available in her shop here. She’s also got some pretty cute quilt kits available here.
