Just So You Know

It's been awhile...

Since The last time I talked about the state of my hobbies a lot has happened. Maybe not as much as I would have liked to have happen on my hobbies but in July of 2007 Terry and I started the 100 Project Challenge. We were supposed to finish 100 projects before buying anything new. I've fallen a few times but I've bought fewer things than I would if I hadn't been on the challenge. As of today, I've finished 30 projects for the challenge. Terry has completed 80. But then I was pretty sure that it would take me 4 years to finish.

I did set some goals in 2008 -
1. Ugly Swan Quilt Contest Entry. (Decided that life is too short to make ugly quilts and didn't enter)
2. Keep on track with the 100 project challenge.
a. 2 to 4 projects a month - total of 25 projects this year. (I'm still on track to finish in 4 years)
3. Finish at least 3 to 4 projects for the State fair
a. Most likely the TW pillowcases (I did enter 3 things into the fair but I still haven't finished the pillowcases and came home with 2 ribbons).

So the goals for 2009 - -
1. Finish the TW Pillowcases
2. Finish a quilt WIP
3. Finish TW Winter Carousel Horse
4. Start one of the other TW Carousel horses
5. Keep on track to finish the 100 project challenge within by June 30, 2011.

Three and four are mainly a panicked reaction to the change in my eyesight. I'm having to use magnifying glasses to read or stitch anymore.
