February Finish It!!!

I'm going to be participating in "A Lovely Year of Finishes." I missed January, but I'll start now and can, at least, finish 11 projects this year.
Here's how it works:
Each month pick one project, anything you like (it can even be an entirely new project, so long as you can finish it in the current month) and tell yourself, "I will finish it." Then write a blog post about the project and link it up to our Goal Setting linky party. Spend the rest of the month working on your finish. We will have a mid-month check, and though you are not required to link up to that post, it would be fun to see your progress! Finally, after you have finished your project, write a second (or third) post showing us your Lovely Finish and link it up to our "Finishes Party."
Goal setting - required link up (link starts 1st of the month and is open for seven days)
Mid-Month check in - optional (link starts on the 15th and is open for seven days)
Finishes Party - required link-up (link is open seven days before the last day of the month)

This month I will be working on:
  • Valentine's Day runners/wall hangings
  • a felt crown for a friend
  • Penelope's broken dishes quilt (sandwich and fmq)
  • starting a new pieced top
  • asterisk bee block for February Simply Solids Bee
I know I'll finish more than one of these things, but let's concentrate on the Valentine's Day thingys. I really need to get these started and finished in a timely manner so they are relevant. That means this weekend, I think.

Be kind!

  1. This is a great idea to try to complete at least one thing a month. I can't tell you how much fire it has put under me in the last couple of years to be in a blog "circle" that encourages finishes! I belong to OPAM - One Project A Month. It's a couple of Ausie girls that have been doing it for several years now.

    take care and hugZ,
