My personal focus this year is to slow down.
More specifically, live more fully in the moment instead of pushing
through every project like it has a major deadline
(okay, more like the world is gonna end).
Not that there's anything wrong with making a great use of time.
I was raised that way and I'm a firm believer.
But who am I kidding? Most of these are for Christmas gifts
or just for fun with no deadline at all!
And, I do not have to make every quilt on my pinterest board!
(wait...what!?)
I realized there was a good reason I was struggling to get
my list made: in my mind I was already being too aggressive.
So I started deleting; now what is left is my minimum.
I'll just keep re-evaluating as I go.
My biggest plan for this year was to make 2 or 3 BOM's so we'll start there:
BOM 1

Waiting for his opinion on this one but he has shown an interest
