Carving out 30 minutes of me time sewing time for 30 days of March, are you ready? I hope I can meet this Challenge, one thing about sewing is that it relaxes me, so any type of sewing is relaxing even if it is making something for someone else.
I have my every month monthly goals:
1. Every month I plan on following along with
If I get this quilt done it will be for me, also the Meringue Clutch will be for me and I am also making another bag called the Wonderland this month that will be FOR ME! So lot's of sewing just for me.
I am making another bag for a swap partner, so if you are counting that is 3 bags!
And one last item that I need to do in the next 2 days is quilt and do the backing for my pillow FOR ME, or actually for my husband, but they do say that husbands and wives are 1 unit, right!
If I do get it quilted in time I will enter it in the Pillow Collective Challenge. going on over at Amy's Creative Side.
I will be linking to these great linky parties this month with my finishes.
