Get It Done - August/September 2013 - linking up with Patchwork Times
I've really let this handy little organizational tool drop by the wayside in all my busyness these past few months, but I'd like to get back into the mode of having a written plan of what I'd like to accomplish each month, and then be able to look back at the end of the month to see how I've done. Although I haven't taken the time to write up a post in recent months, I have been writing my goals down on my dry-erase board...
Down and dirty organizational method, but it works for me!
Wash Stash fabrics! - DONE - Washed 9 loads!Prep for Runaway class- DONE - ordered patterns and emailed participants- Genevieve's Banners - planned but not yet started
Hexie Blog Hop- DONE!!!- Begin quilting Moonglow - not done :(
Quilt Midnight Runner(Santa Sleigh) - DONE!!!RSC Challenge blocks- DONE!!!Dishcloths for daughter- DONE knitted 3 and mailed them off to her!!!Block Cloud Illusions- DONE!!!Start Dreambird- DONE!!!
September 2013 Goals:
I will be at Runaway Retreat for 5 days this month which should equate to getting a LOT done! I'm teaching one of those days, so I will have to plan some time for preparation for that.
- Finish prep-work on all materials for Runaway class
- Continue washing Stash!
- RSC Challenge blocks
- Complete Genevieve's baby quilt
- New Tabletop quilt for Mom (NewFO Challenge project)
- Quilt The First Tree of Life
- Start quilting Moonglow
- Make flying geese for Talkin' Turkey
- Finish Dreambird Shawl
- Plan and prepare Runaway projects that I think I can accomplish in 4 days
How are you planning your September?
I think I'm ready - BRING IT ON!!!

ReplyDeleteAs usual, I'm blown away with all you get done each month. Your projects are beautiful and your knitting has really picked up speed. Your lacy shawl is gorgeous! You are as good a knitter as you are quilter. I like your down and dirty list. It works for me too!!
