The file they provided in the Facebook group had 3 lines per month, so I actually put in 3 different projects. That way I figured I could choose which one or ones I worked on - or move on to another month. And I've given myself permission to replace things on the list that I've lost interest in with things I DO want to work on. No quilt police here! January's number drawn was 12 and I finished all 3 of the projects. Two of those were small, but they are still done. The blue bag was even given away right away.
February's number was 9. I finished the binding for the ABC quilt in March finally, but it's done. And I did manage to get both of the other quilts to flimsy stage. The QOV quilt is actually at the quilter's right now, along with 2 other quilts, and I hope to have it bound and ready to donate in April.
March's number is 3 and I've been working on 2 of the projects. I have the parts all cut for Olivia's pillow, and the center section with her name has been sewn. And I bought the pillow form to go inside. Yay!! The Christmas jelly roll quilt (see yesterday's post) has 10 new blocks so far, but I know I'll need even more. Jack's pillow will have to wait.
So - it definitely helps me to see what I've finished - written down and checked off. I have a new project I want to start, but have challenged myself that it's the reward for finishing the flimsy of the Christmas jelly roll quilt. And for me, the process is more fun when I don't have so many UFOs hanging around taking up space.

always make lists....gets them off my mind and onto paper...
I'm a list maker, too. Lists help me to organize my projects, my day, etc.
Congratulations on checking items off of your UFO list.
I'm a listmaker, too. I have so many quilting projects going at once, so I made a spreadsheet to keep myself from going crazy. But I think I might be crazy, though, because there are 16 (!) projects on it right now!
