To stay on goal, I thought I would start a monthly plan to help keep things moving forward in various areas of my world. Each month should include any business activities, deadlines, book activities, and fun quilty projects (WiPs).

Sounds like a busy month, but nothing like starting off the year committed. Please note, that this is my “guided” plan. Sometimes, life gets in the way, or something just takes longer…that’s ok, I will adjust and move on. I’ll share with you next month how things went.
What are your monthly goals? How are you working towards those?

I love your “health” goals, on paper it looks easy peasy.😊 I was taking quiet time yesterday due to a cold And listened to your webinar on hand piecing I found it very enjoyable. Can’t wait to start a project on the go. As a teen growing up on a farm in West Texas, My first quilt was hand pieced out of polyester remnants back in the 70s. Also, love your accent!
