So, I never got around to blogging my October Goals, but I did set some! Let’s take a look, shall we?
- Hexies. Finish September’s block and then stitch together 2 more blocks from already basted hexagons. Done and done! I actually stitched together 3 from already basted hexagons. 🙂 I have a whole blog post coming out about it on Monday.
- Linus quilt top. Have we talked about how I joined a quilt guild? Because I did and it’s awesome. One of the things they do is make charity quilts and one of the ladies actually makes kits so it’s easier. I grabbed a kit at the September meeting and actually managed to stitch it together! It’s the ugliest quilt ever, but hopefully some little kid will love it.
- Costumes. Kate came up with the awesome idea for all of the kids to dress up as breakfast, but then she ended up changing her mind and going as a zombie ballerina. Mia and Xander were totally sold on the idea though and ended up being fried eggs. lol. It was hilarious.
- As far as scrapping goes, I wanted to get April and March of 2018 done, but that didn’t happen.
- For Project Life, I wanted to get March and April of 2018 edited and uploaded and I succeeded! I even got May done too! Yay me! I can’t wait for these prints to get here.
- Name tag. Apparently I need to make a name tag for my quilt guild. I was planning to get that done this month but it didn’t happen.
- Pot Holder. Same deal. We are exchanging pot holders at our Christmas party. I have the design done in my head, but I need to execute it.
- More editing. I wanted to get June- Sept of 2018 done for the big scrapbook and I got it done!
- Road Trip Activities. Done! Even though they didn’t see much use.
- Work on super secret Christmas project. I didn’t make any progress on it this month, but I think I’m still in good shape for a December finish.
And now for November.
- Hexie block #9.
- Finish Jake’s stocking. I’m so so so so close to being done. I can probably finish it in an evening or two.
- Pot Holder. I’m planning to make a hexie flower out of some Christmas fabric that I have an then applique it to some white fabric. Then beg my Mimi to help me. lol.
- Name Tag. Same. lol.
- Teacher Gifts. Now that all 3 kids are in school, I need to make a plan for some cute (cheap!) teacher gifts. Now taking suggestions.
- Order prints. Now that I have the pics edited, I just need to upload them and actually order them.
- Tree Counting Activity. I want to make a little Montessori counting activity for the twins.
- Scrap March and April of 2018.
- Scrap March, April, May 2018 Project Life.
- Edit June, July Project Life. I’m not going to be ordering more prints any time soon, but I’d like to get some of the editing done so I’m ready to order next time they have a sale.
- Family pictures. Professional pics are not in the budget this year, but I still want to take the kids out and try to get something for our Christmas card. I already have their outfits picked out. Mia’s is comically too large, but I’m going to make it work!
- Super Secret Christmas Project. Um, I might have a few of these that need to be finished. lol.
