February 2020 OMG Completion

I have been limiting my sewing time to the weekends only. And why? Because I have been writing! I have another course almost complete. I am 2 pages short for my book report. On the last course I submitted, they deducted 3 marks for being a half-page too little. Yikes! 

For my one-monthly-goal  I made a "whole bunch" of blocks for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge including 4 orange Bright Jane blocks bringing the total up to 12. Still need 8 more. 







I made another 10 blocks for the Corn and Beans UFO. I turned these blocks on point and they look like baskets. This gives me ideas. 

Also, I decided to dust off an old quilt book and play along.
My day will be Friday, March 6. I found the perfect book to revisit. You will have to wait to see what book that is and how I was inspired.

Blessings,

Chris

February 2020 OMG Goals

I am hard-pressed to decide just what to do for my February one-monthly-goal.

I got my Bright Jane orange blocks and patterns organized last week when the colour was revealed early. I like that. I have several tiny blocks made so far. I am trying to rationalize myself into choosing a goal. Some months I have made it super simple to get it done. Other times I have made it super challenging. Sometimes it is very specific - complete 8 blocks. Other times is is vague - move this one forward. I like specific but vague works too.

My quilting for the past year has been focused on working on my Beyond the Cherry Trees blocks and borders as well as the Rainbow Scrap Challenge with the Corn and Beans ufo. I am still writing my book. Very slowly but working on it. And, I am trying to complete my doctorate. I submitted one course last month and have another almost done. Some of my non-quilting goals will be to complete and submit three courses.

My February OMG will be to make "a whole bunch" of orange blocks either for Bright Jane and/or the Corn and Beans. Now is that vaguely specific enough? Or is it specifically vague? Either way, it will be orange blocks. And there are 5 Saturdays. I have been sewing and not writing on Saturdays.
Blessings,
Chris
