While we were on the road - I tried to read blogs from my phone. I still have no clue how to comment off of the phone, but at least I didn't feel completely away from my Quilt world. I saw that Judy ( Patchworktimes.com) was reviewing her goals. So today - I sat down and looked at mine... oh boy... do I have a lot of work to di!!
On my UFO list - of the 12 I chose, only 4 are done... most need to be quilted... I had better get busy!!
On my QOV list - I need to make 5 more tops.... and Quilt 8 more Quilts of Valor - to make my 12 for the year.
I thought I was getting more done.. apparently I have been goofing off too much ;-)
I think that was a good exercise though, to go back a review what I thought I could do for the year. It helped me reset my focus. Judy is hosting a Quilting maration for August 9th to the 12th ( I think) and I may just have to join in.... QOV colors of course!!
Machine Quilting, Tutorials, Quilts of Valor, and A Lot of Quilts!
But you're just looking at what you DIDN'T get done! I'm betting if you make a list of what you DID do, it would be a lot longer and you would be amazed! Still, I think Judy is on to something. I get so wrapped up in new projects and forget what I set out to do in January. I'm thankful that I have you two to keep me focused...it's a full time job I know. :)
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on everything you did accomplish so far this year! I'm especially thinking of all those smiling faces receiving they very own QOV!
ReplyDeleteThat is why I have all my UFO's listed on my blog, so I can visit that list and see what all I have to work on, and add what I started too. It keeps it all in focus, because otherwise UFO's go forgotten in the dark depths of the quilting studio corners. When I look at that list, I am reminded of something that I was working on and got interrupted, and it is almost done. Then I can find it, dig it out and get it finished.
ReplyDeleteLol. On road right now reading blogs. I know how to comment, I'm trying to figure how to write a post.
ReplyDeleteGreat list to tackle! All (most) of my UFOs are listed on my blog, and I certainly can't wait to push through mine before school starts back up.
Good luck on your push
Re-focusing is good. I know you'll be back on track in a flash.
