I am not by nature super organized and I'm okay with that (if I got super organized I'd never have anything to set as a theme for the year). Here's my review of 2013 and goals for 2014 all in one big post.
2013 Review:
Dear Jane - I seem to sew and sew and sew and it never feels like I get much done. Two women in the class are actually finished all 169 square blocks. I'm not there - yet.
I finished 33 blocks this year (doesn't sound too great), which equals 743 pieces (sounds better).
I made some really cute baby shoes - some for gifts and some I sold.
I finished this quilt top for my niece
2014 Goals:
Dear Jane
I have 48 square blocks and 44 triangles left to go - that equals 7.6 blocks per month in 2014. So, I'll aim for 8 blocks per month.
Quilt my niece's quilt - before the end of Feb so I can show it at the guild meeting on Feb 27th.
Make the drapes for my family room before the end of January. I've figured out the math I think
Make a baby quilt for someone at work - before March 2nd cause that's the baby shower date. I'm thinking low volume and have a simple pattern picked out.
Make a crosses quilt for a 1 year old - during March break.
Be more chatty on my blog. I'm not chatty by nature and I think I'm too vague on my blog and that my personality doesn't come through as much as I'd like it to.
Finish a red and white hunter's star - by June 15th - in case the recipient comes home for a family gathering.
Those are all the sewing goals I'm setting for this year. Life will create more as I go through the year. Everything else that gets finished beyond this will be a bonus.
My personal theme for the year is health and wellness and meeting those goals will also take some time.
Wish me luck!
