March was a blur of business and stress. My sweetie quit his job (after 27 years!). My work landed some big new projects. The ManChild started another term of school. Just a whole lotta life being lived.
Not a whole lotta quilting going on, however. In particular, my March "A Lovely Year of Finishes" wasn't.
Finished.
At all.
Ah well.
I will keep working on getting MC's Carpenter's Star quilted but that's not my goal for April. I figured out that I can't really set a goal for creativity and inspiration. I can work on it, but I can't guarantee that I'll find a pattern I'll love or decide on a final design.
I CAN set a goal that's based on putting in the time and effort. That's something I can control - mostly.
My goal for April is to turn this:
Into a Broken Dishes quilt top. Sorta like this:
I needed a project that I can just sew on without plotting or planning. I had these great batiks from Connecting Threads and added some neutrals I had left from the Stonehenge line. I got a start on it this weekend, cutting a lot of the squares and sewing some of them to make the HST's. I think it will come together nicely.
So that's the plan for April's ALYoF2014. Click here to check out these other great project and goals for the month.
Love those batiks,good luck with your goal for this month!
