One Monthly Goal ~ December 2021 ~ Did I Finish?


 Come join this awesome motivational link up hosted by Elm Street Quilts!

~~~~~~~~~

My December 2021 One Monthly Goal was to finish an Attic 24 Cozy Stripe Sage Afghan.

This is where I started :)


This is where I finished the month (well almost the month):


So I did NOT finish :(  

I greatly underestimated my crafting time in December...

There's always next month!

Friday Night Sew-in ~ December 2021 ~ Goals

"Friday Night Sew-In" is hosted by Wendy Bertello at Sugarlane Designs .  FNSI is set for the 3rd Friday of each month (Australia-time) but as participants are joining in from all over the world, you can participate any time from Thursday - Saturday, depending on where you are.

~~~~~~~~~~

This Friday is the Friday Night Sew-In.

I haven't decided which project to work on yet but it will either be the Sage Afghan or the Fall Frolic Quilt Blocks.  It will depend on if I'm in the mood to crochet or sew.

The Sage Afghan is my One Monthly Goal so I've been working mostly on it.

But...

I've gotten a bit behind on the Fall Frolic Sew along by Pat Sloan.  I have 4 quilt blocks to sew to catch up.  Here are a couple of my completed blocks for your viewing pleasure :)



Again, it is going to depend on if I want to sit at my sewing machine or recline on the couch as to which I'll work on.  I'll let you know on Saturday which one I decide :)

One Monthly Goal ~ December 2021


 Come join this awesome motivational link up hosted by Elm Street Quilts!

~~~~~~~~~

I think for December's One Monthly Goal, I'm going to be working on the Sage Afghan that I started over the weekend.

I got the yarn (4 Caron One Pounders in Soft Sage) for 60% off at Joann Fabrics Saturday evening so it was still the Black Friday deal.


I'm using Attic 24's Cozy Stripe pattern because it is super simple and I can mindlessly crochet while watching Hallmark Christmas movies.


As you can see, I have about 14 rows crocheted so far.  I really have no idea how many rows I need to make it the size I want.  I'll know when I get there!


I made this project my One Monthly Goal because in early January, I should be able to start hand-quilting the Blue Fall Frolic quilt designed by Pat Sloan that I'm making my Mom for her birthday present.

Wish me luck!
