August started out so well sewing-wise...and then promptly dropped off into never land around the middle of the month. Oh well. I have only one question at this point, is it really September??? This year is flying by, so I thought I should revisit my 2014 goals, see where I'm at, how far I have to go, or if any of my goals need tweaking. So here they are with current status in red:
- Finish at least 14 quilts in 2014 finished 5
- Make quilt for M and B (who got married 12/26/13!) not sure what I want to do with this one
- Use my stash! Maybe it's time I started logging on the weekly stash reports that are out there. have done halfway decent with this one, I've added, but far less than usual
- Continue to work on FMQ...don't just stipple everything...not that there is anything wrong with stippling, but it's time to branch out a bit more! yeah, pretty much still stippling
- Make a bag for A (who hinted pretty heavily at wanting one) this one is coming off the list as A hasn't bothered to respond to my requests for colors
Not too shabby. I have several quilts that are at the flimsy stage, they just need backing, quilting and binding. I have another that just needs borders added and then the same backing, quilting and binding. So I think I still have a chance at Goal #1. #2 is where I can't decide if I want to give them a quilt that is already in progress, or make them one from the start. Most of my quilts in progress right now have no designation...they'll probably end up staying here at my house. So I need to take a little bit of time and come to a decision on this one. #3 I've been pretty good with. Yes, I have added to my stash, but I've been a bit more choosy about what I've been adding. So I'll call #3 on track. #4 and #5 are just there, I don't see a whole lot of progress being made on those in the near future. I will think about those and decide in the next few days if I want to revise those goals, or try for a push on them in the next few months.
Well that's it. Football starts again this week, so I plan on spending plenty of time in the sewing room while I watch my beloved Red Zone!
