2013 Guidelines
Refold/organize ONE cube/spot in my stash per month
Work on ONE UFO per month and move it One more step towards completion. (add borders, set blocks into a top, etc)
Any piece of stash less than 9" WOF goes into the scrap box to be recut into usable units--noodles, 3.5" x 6.5" bricks, 5" charms.
Finish a UFO before starting a new project (this one is a bit iffy)
I plan to participate in Design Wall Mondays, Stashbuster's UFO Challenge, Rainbow Scrap Challenge and other internet fun. Even Stash reports! I may not post to each one every week--but I enjoy them.
I plan to make quilts for donation and for family.
I will participate in internet fun.
I will remind myself its the PROCESS I love the most!
There, a plan for 2013! I NEED a plan.
Did you ring in the New Year? What--don't YELL?? You have a headache? Sending two aspirin to you ASAP. Today I plan to do some traditional Cajun cooking. Ken is a bit wary but I promise not to make it too spicy. Maybe a few Mimosa's with Henrietta....yeah--that's a good idea.
Yes - it really is the process that is the most fun. I need to remember that myself.
ReplyDeleteYeah! Yeah! Yeah!
ReplyDeleteCan we play old Beatles songs? What time?
I keep telling myself that it's the process I enjoy. So, I don't have a plan for the year, I'll just be processing!! It would be nice to finish something though. Actually, I need to finish 2 baby quilts for my niece's expected twin girls, a quilt for my son & daughter-in-law and one for my granddaughter....so I'd better get processing!!!
ReplyDeleteWonderful guidelines for the new year.
ReplyDeleteI definitely need to focus on the process more than progress. Good advice.
I'm with you, the process is the best. I think it's what keeps me going on alot of UFOS. You have great order plans, that is a major part of my goals for 2013. A very Happy New Year to you, Lori ~
ReplyDelete:-}pokey
definitely sounds like you've got some great ideas and plans for the New Year!
ReplyDeletemy big step is adding Google Chrome to my computer so that (hopefully) i can start blogging again this year.
I had a bad attack of sciatica just after Christmas,(too much moving of the couch to plug/unplug the Christmas lights) so my back is still recouping. That will slow me down for about another week or so, but after that i should be right back in the thick of quilting again.
I've got 2 quilt tops in progress now, and hope to have them ready to be quilted by the end of the month. Happy New Year, Lori!
What a great plan. I think I might borrow some of your ideas.
