I am linking up with Patchwork Times for the year and will be aiming to complete some things that are taking up closet space. Don't think I don't know that you keep all those extra photos, scrapbooks and other project to be done hidden in there.
The goal is to take up to 12 UFO's, assign them a month number 1-12 and when Patchwork Times picks a number for the month- Hurray- that is the month I work on that project, with the aim to complete it?!
I only have 3 UFO's right now, so I will assign 4 months to each one. Now, before you send hate comments about me having only 3 UFO's hanging around, you have to remember that I am a very cautious starter. I only start projects I am pretty sure I am going to complete.
I will also let you in on another secret. I JUST FINISHED a UFO that has been hanging around for 3 years. A quilt top that Kae-Kae and I started, and actually fully pieced except for the sashing. I decided, since her 13th birthday is coming up, I would finish that sucker and my parents are paying to have it quilted for her. Don't tell!!!
Here are my UFO's with number assignments:
- Finish Dazzling all our family's Super 8s to DVD. I have completed four and have four more to go. 1,4,7,10
- Dig into the unopened box of photos I brought home when my grandpa died and do something productive with them- maybe just organize or scrap or something. 2,5,8,11
- Dig into the unopened box of photos my Mother-in-law mailed me the second week we moved into this house. For future reference, don't do that to your daughter-in-law. Many of them she wrote with PEN on the back, so I will have to color copy them before I can do anything with them. Don't do that to your D-in-L, either. This is an overwhelming, multi-step project. 3,6,9,12
Maybe you need to break the third one into several steps and assign each step a number! Advice duly noted...I so want to be a good mil one day. :)
