February 1

My plan for this decade is still holding and we're already over a month in! In fact, I'm a little bit ahead... I'd better go find some wood to knock on! Last month I turned the "notes" portion of my desk calendar to a place where I listed "goals". January's done and the goals were met. This morning I ripped off the spent calendar page to reveal February and found these items listed under goals for this month to come:

To quilt: 1. Redwork Circles 2. Dog Year Finish piecing: 1. Christmas Nine-patch

As you can see I have already begun quilting on the redwork quilt and can happily report that I accomplished everything I had listed for last month and then some. It's a positive thing to have this public forum to hold me accountable. So far, so good!

Life is Good!

I use my calendar for notes & goals too. This calendar is my memory. If I ever lose it I'm sunk.

Now I'm not a big fan of redwork, but yours is absolutely gorgeous!!! What a darling display.

Thanks for sharing.

The best part is that you are enjoying yourself, not just being a slave to those notes on your calendar.

Good for you!!!
