Despite having a laundry list of projects and UFOs, I have to admit that I’ve been in a bit of a funk when it comes to quilting.  My one saving grace is that I have a book where I track all of my projects and blocks due each month.  It feels good to be able to check off a project as done – or in the cases of quilt alongs, checking off the assignment for the week.  Anyone else have a great way of keeping themselves on track when you feel like you have quilters-block?

This month also brings a special day – International Day of Awesomeness – on March 10^th.  This day is touted as a celebration of awesomeness.  And, after the past year, I think that we all need some awesome in our lives.  So, take some time (be it on March 10^th or the entire month) to identify things in your life that are awesome.  Strive to make things in your life awesome, or do things that are awesome.  I think that making charity quilts or finishing a quilt for the online auction in April would be awesome!  It’s the day before our next guild meeting, so I am eager to hear what you did to celebrate your awesomeness.
