This time I will leave it at one per month and use your averaging method to tell if I'm on track.
YOU set your goals for yourself - nobody is going to slam you if you don't meet them - but for sure we'll celebrate every single finish!! If you "get ahead" (like I did at the beginning of the year), you don't necessarily have to change because of that. (I sure didn't!!) We all know that "life interferes" with our plans.
I'm pretty sure I'm going to "miss" my September UFO finish. I'm still attaching the sleeve to "Pony Up!" and will be shipping her out on Monday for MQX Midwest. Then I have my "Challenge" piece to complete before November for my longarm guild. So, I probably will NOT get a September finish.
However, I'm not going to let that nag at me nor discourage me - after all, I finished a total of 8 so far this year! Who knows, maybe I will finish 2 (or more?) in October, so that would get me back on track for 1 per month.
But for sure I know I will definitely be joining the 2017 UFO group next year!! This has been a great group, with lots of inspiration.
I know that I was not with this group last year, and I only finished 2 UFO's... and created a whole lot more!!
So, I count it a blessing and a miracle that I have finished 8 while NOT creating any more (so far!).
I can't wait to see you post a finish soon!! (But no pressure - just enjoy the ride!!)
