2013 - A Lovely Year of Finishes - January Goal

I have deemed 2013 the year of finishing things!  I need to finish up (loads!) languishing projects and do a better job of not procrastinating.  I do think that cutting back on my sewing obligations will help although I need to do 3-4 quilts and 12 bee blocks this month!  This being said, when I saw the Lovely Year of Finishes that Shanna of Fiber of All Sorts and Melissa of Sew BitterSweet Designs put together I knew I needed to join in.

A Lovely Year of Finishes

My January project is to take this pretty stack of fabrics and finish making them into a Swoon quilt!  It must be finished  (quilted, bound etc) by the beginning of February so this is the perfect kick in the butt to get it done a week early!






So far I have the whole top cut out, one block pieced, and the remaining eight are partially chain-pieced together.  I already have my backing fabric too so I just need to get it done!

Linking up at the Goal Setting Party!
