March goals

I just saw the new Dove soap commercial.  It may have been out for awhile but this is the first I recall seeing it.   It has dominoes lined up with the negative things women tweet about themselves.  You know ...I'M fat, ugly, too short, too tall.  My photos are too dark, too light.  My fmq isn't very good.  You get the picture.

I also read a post about things  quilters should not do.
Most importantly  was to not compare to others.  Be inspired and learn.  Enjoy the process and enjoy where you are in your quilting journey and development .

I tend to  be  an optimist.  I usually   think I can accomplish  more in a given amount of time than is realistically  possible.  So that being said.  .......

This is my March ALYOF goal.  

32 diamonds with 57 pieces each.  I have 13 pieces on each.  44 to go on each.  I have been intimidated  by this project.  It is on my list for 1st quarter finish a long and I  have not worked on it any this quarter.  So this is now my goal  for March.  32 paper  pieced diamonds completed, sewn together  in a top, sandwiched, quilted and bound.






Making progress. At a retreat and now have 25 pieces on.

Keep sewing.
