How are my goals tracking???

First month of 2014 is over, and to be honest it was a little difficult to keep up with my goals, mostly due to the flu and bronchitis I had over the first two weeks of the month. Now that all is better, I am happy with what I accomplished in the shortened month.

This was the goals/plan for January:

[UNDERWAY – 2 of 4 blocks complete] Riley Blake Challenge Quilt (Fabric Purchased, Kona White needed) GOAL for A LOVELY YEAR OF FINISHES FOR FEBRUARY
[COMPLETE] Scrap-bee-licious Bee Blocks (Use Stash)
[COMPLETE] Stash Bee Blocks (Use Stash)
[COMPLETE] Pillow Pop QAL (threadbias) (Use Stash)
[COMPLETE] Projects for Book Review Tuesday (Use Stash)

For February, I need to revise my goals slightly. I think I can finish two lap –> full size quits per quarter….I think one per month may have been slightly optimistic. So here is the revised plan:

Old Plan	New Plan
X & + Quilt (Fabric Purchased, including backing) Scrap-bee-licious Bee Blocks (Use Stash) Stash Bee Blocks (Use Stash) Pillow Pop QAL (threadbias) (Use Stash) Publish Tapa Cloth Stars Paper Piecing Pattern Border & Lines Project Check-in	Finish Riley Blake Challenge Quilt!! (carry over from last month) Gypsy Wife QAL blocks (Fabric Purchased) Scrap-bee-licious Bee Blocks (Use Stash) Stash Bee Blocks (Use Stash) Pillow Pop QAL (threadbias) (Use Stash) Book Review Tuesday Project (Use Stash) Publish Tapa Cloth Stars Paper Piecing Pattern (Use Stash) X & + Quilt (at least 20 blocks) (Fabric Purchased, including backing)

Wow! You are ambitious! I’m lucky if I get a few blocks done every few weeks. Good on you! Great job.

Thanks, things are definitely adding up. Luckily the hubby has been wonderful and supportive – I could not do it without him

  That is a must! I have a wonderful hubby as well, but also 2 young children (3 yo and 7mo) so my life is very much not my own right now. 🙂

  My little one is now 6 years old. Definitely much easier now (especially the last ~6 months)

Still pining for those feathers… I’m actually beginning to plot how I might use just one or two blocks so I can see how I go…

It’s awesome that you are looking at what worked and what may have been a little overambitious (aren’t we all guilty of that LOL). Great readjustment and now I’m itching to make feathers:)
