First of all, I’m not a big resolution maker, because after 60 years on this earth, I find I am still making the same resolutions: get organized, stay focused on one project, lose weight, be taller…..so my resolutions this year are a little different.
I am going to continue participating in Judy Laquidara’s Design Wall Monday. I find that helps me take stock of what I’ve accomplished in the past week and think about what I hope to accomplish in the next week. (If you’re interested in participating, nothing to sign up for — just prepare a post on your site on Monday, go to Judy’s site and add a link.) PLUS it’s fun to just check in and see what other quilters are working on.
Something new is Vicki Welsh’s involvement in a new site: 3 Creative Studios. They are starting something new in January, Creative Cue, every Sunday, where they will throw out a word as astarting point for a creative exercise (drawing or sketching), and it’s up to you to interpret it however you would like. You can participate even if you don’t draw! Yea!!! I plan to use this to be more creative in my photography, but I’m sure it will overlap into other areas of my life as well. Same deal — prepare a post on your site, go to the 3 Creative Studios site and post a link. Sounds like fun! Even if you don’t have a blog or photo site or don’t care to participate for whatever reason, check out this site. Click on all the tabs and buttons and see all the wonderfulness they are offering up!
Work on completing my mountain of UFOs, a project at a time. (Tab at the top of my page, if you’re interested in tracking my progress.) By the middle of January, I will be back to having UFO Thursdays.
Work on developing some of my designs into actual patterns.
Keep knitting socks. I have a lot of sock yarn in the basket waiting for the *magic* to happen and turn them into socks.
AND be better organized, stay focused on one project, lose weight, get taller…wish me luck!
