I sometimes need a little push to get things done. I admit it, I often feel no real initiative to get up and DO things. It's so much easier to sit on my ass and watch tv and play on the computer.
I've joined in a challenge this year called OMG (or One Monthly Goal)... Here is a link to the challenge if you want to read about it and maybe join yourself. The deadline for joining in on any monthly challenge is the 7th of each month, but January has been extended to the 10th, so you have a couple of more days to hop in.
My goal for the first month (January) is to put away all my quilting books. My husband had to move my bookshelves to put up my design wall last month and I STILL haven't put the books back away again. So putting away (and arranging) my books and patterns is my goal for January.
Here is a picture of the 'mess' my husband left:
I will post a picture of the nice orderly shelves when they are finished.
As for other stuff going on... just busy busy with holiday stuff... and now, after promising myself to back off the bom's for 2016, I am signed up for like 5 of them... but I am going to stay away from the LQS Saturday Samplers... none of the shops are doing quilts I want to do, so I'm safe there.
I am still finishing up BOMs from last year, and I have no in-progress pics to share with you right now, but that will hopefully change soon.
Back to the grind for me... Happy Quilting to you!
