Well I'm counting the first month of the Charming Girl's Quilt Club a success for me even though I didn't get all my projects done. I did get 2 out of 3, so that's not too bad!
I really think the challenge helped to keep me focused to get the projects done. And I only started 4 new projects instead of a dozen!!
* * * * * AUGUST GOALS * * * * *
- Finish Witchie Hats (my own design) for Jane's Spooktackular Halloween Swap. I'm making fifteen 12 1/2" paper pieced blocks - 12 for swapping and three for individual swaps.
- Quilt my St. Paddy's wall hanging I made using Kim's FREE tutorial
- Finish, quilt and send a little something for my parents. I'm not posting a picture because I want it to be a surprise!
OK, so I should be able to get these done! Before I start on those three, I need to make a few things for our family reunion this weekend. Hmm, maybe I have something laying around here I can use!
Good luck Charming Girls Everywhere!!
Best of Luck to You Mel!
ReplyDeleteHee...I'll bet you DO have something laying around to use for the reunion! Congrats on getting 3 of your 4 projects done, Mel!
ReplyDeleteCheers!
It all looks like "sew" much fun! Great to have goals. I had a lot for summer, but summer had some different ones for me! I guess that's just the way life goes sometimes! It's o.k. though because I appreciate the small moments that I do have! Enjoy your family reunion!
ReplyDeleteI know you can do it Mel, I have goals but I keep them to myself, just in case I fail!! You are a brave soul!
ReplyDeleteGood for you!! I started Kim's St. Paddy's wall hanging too. Now I need to finish it! haha
ReplyDeleteGreat projects! And i agree that this is great motivation to get things finished! Have a great day!

ReplyDeleteWay to go!!! I really like your wonky op quilt - I'm thinking of using your tutorial to make one.
ReplyDeleteGood goals!
ReplyDeleteGood luck finishing your August projects. I had to LOL when you said
ReplyDeleteyou stayed focused last month and only started 4 new things instead of 12! I think quite a few of us can relate to that!
Congratulations on your accomplishments! You are inspiring!!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see your spooktacular blocks! Good luck on everything! Happy August! Dang it's half over already!
ReplyDelete2 out 3 is pretty good in my book. congrats.
ReplyDeleteTwo out of three is awesome, Mel! Keep up the good work. I'll be looking forward to seeing the Witchie Hats, and the quilts! Love the Sewing Machine stamp -- you're just too creative!
