Today we are starting the Feb/March Challenge. At the end of the post you can add your blog post to this party! If you don’t have a blog, just tell us in the comments what you are doing. For more information on this challenge, check out my last post here.
I’ve not decided exactly what all I’ll be working on over the next eight weeks, but definitely I have several projects in mind.
This first one I’m working on and finishing up is for my tutorial for tomorrow on Cheesecloth Words Skins. Here is the skin I made.
I won’t be able to show you this 12 x 12 art quilt I’m working on until this summer when the SAQA Indiana Collaborative Challenge is over. It’s a fun challenge where each group gets a photo from the person in front of them (think telephone tag) to begin the process. So I received a photo from Laurel. I have until February 15 to get my quilt finished. At that time I will take a picture of my finished quilt and send it to the person next on the list. She will make a quilt from my design. And it goes down the line every month. So at the end of the project in May we’ll have the original picture and the four quilts that came from it. As I said, I will be sending the picture of my quilt in February. Laurel, who is ahead of me will be sending a picture of her art quilt that she made from the picture she was sent my the woman in front of her! It will be so neat to see the results. But I can show you a peek!
I definitely will finish the SAQA CoronArt. It was due in January but they pushed the deadline back to April. It’s almost done except for the facing and the sleeve.
I also have a couple videos I want to shoot, and I’m still working toward that online class on resists. The class has taken a back seat to other stuff that I felt needed to be put in front of it. And there are always more tutorials in the mix.
Then, of course, the scroll stories piece.
Well, those are my ideas for what I’ll work on this week and the upcoming weeks.
Now Let’s see yours.
My blog is not live yet, hoping it will be this month. I have so many projects in progress. Here is my list and my word for the year is move forward. ( It is actually two but it is my rules so it works for me.) I want to not feel guilty about what I have in the works so by working at moving forward I get things done and feel better about it all.
1. Longarm, bind and label the 16 projects I have in the form of tops. I am hoping to do one a week.
2. Work on the class I am taking called from Cloth to Codex by Susan Purney Mark after each lesson. It has been running since January and goes to March.
3. Set up my home photo studio.
4. Get my website up and running and populate it.
5. Sew everyday either a hand or machine project.
6. Walk as many days as I can depending on our Southern Ontario, Canada weather
It is an ambitious list but since I am home everyday all week long it is doable. It is not the amount I accomplish each day but that I do something. Im looking forward to posting in my blog and reading your journeys
Jo-Anne, What a great list. And as you said, it’s not how much you get done or if you complete something, it’s just doing something! I look forward to hearing and seeing your progress. As for the walking, hubby and I try to walk every day but some days are not possible including today with high winds and cold temps. Thanks for joining in.
How do I link back to your blog?
Hey Lea, You put this blog link on your blog post. If you don’t have a blog, just comment here. Looking forward to seeing what you are going to work on.
Do you have any other challenges since I missed Feb/Mar. Would like to follow you.
Gloria, That was an old post. I have no challenges lined up at this time.
