catch up weekend

Posted by Rebecca On October - 28 - 2009

The weekend is upon me.  And I am behind on things!  So it is time to catch up.  And I have a strategy!  I am doing start with a little list of the things that I need to do this weekend here on my blog.  Just as Krisitina did on a post a while ago, I will check things off with photos as I complete them.  The other part of my strategy is renegotiating my contracts.  My work offers Getting Things Done training by the David Allen company and I did that a couple of years ago.  One of the things that they teach is to renegotiate contracts.  So I am using that in some cases.  So here is my list…

  • A Piece of Work B October block   Look at me go!  I already have 2 blocks done! Ok- I actually only made the first one today.  The other one has been done for a little while.   But now they are ready to mail!  I used up every last scrap that Jennie sent for these!

  • A Piece of Work B November block
  • Bee Addicted October block (picture coming soon)
  • Block #1 for Lorrin (and me!) (picture coming soon)
  • Block #2 for Lorrin (and me!) (picture coming soon!)
  • Order fabric for my mom’s Christmas Quilt (I renegotiated again and have some updates on this one)
  • Choose polka dot fabric for Little Helper’s birthday dress (any suggestions??).
  • MAIL ALL BLOCKS!!

Now I think that should be enough for now!  I am renegotiating a couple of contracts with myself.  The first- and biggest- is the advent calendar I wanted to do.  I really wanted to have it done for this year and I haven’t completely figured out what I want.  So, I think that I will wait until after Christmas (all the holiday fabric will be on sale then) and pick some up.  And then I will make if for next year.  Little Helper won’t know the difference.  And since I want it to be something that we keep for years, this is probably the better way to  do it.   I know that I renegotiated another, but I forget what it was.  And it isn’t in my to do list anymore,  so I guess I did a good job of renegotiating it! 

I just looked at my list- that is a lot of blocks!  And I don’t even know what I am going to do for most of them…

    I thought that we already had fabric for mom’s quilt? Are you making her a second one or are you thinking binding and backing? Or adding in random other fabrics that I don’t know about.
