I'm Setting October Goals

After reading Judy's blog yesterday morning I decided I would sit down and write my October goals, rather than waiting until the middle of the month to figure out what I needed to finish. And as you know if I write it on my list and set a deadline, I almost always get it done. Like all of us, I have way more that I want to do but I'm going to try to be practical. I would love to do the Leaf quilt that Judy has for us, but I think I have more than enough on my plate. Here is my list 1. Piece baby quilt(dog fabric) 2. Finish Spa Day top (shop project) 3. Piece Michael's Victory (Carol Hopkins pattern) 4. Piece Tumbler Quilt top 5. Bind Funny Witch quilt 6. Jo Morton group Swap blocks OK, I'm counting on this published list to motivate me to get the whole list done. I will just be thrilled. Won't get much done though until the beginning of next week. We are going to Pennsylvania on Wednesday morning until next Monday. Andy's 35th college reunion is this weekend so we're going up. We try to get up there every 5 years for the reunions...all of his good friends also try to return so it is lots of fun. I'm looking forward to cooler weather and hopefully some leaves changing colors. I've lived in Florida for 40 years and still miss the leaves changing colors.

Hi Carol, the small tumbler quilt that I made was one of my first projects, and needless to say, I didn't get my seam lines even....but it's still one of my favorite Fall quilts and would like to do another one someday. :) Lots of fun to make. Hope you have a blast at the reunion...and you will get to enjoy the Fall colors! :)

Have fun up this way in PA. I've done some goals too. I think you're right-if they're written down, we just might get them done.

I find that setting goals and writing them down works so well for me.

Good luck with getting them all done.

Hi Carol...that is a very impressive list! I have no doubts tho, that you can and will get all or most of it done!

I look forward to seeing what is posted..Hugs, Finn
