August was a productive month plus we had a bit of a vacation, so I'm happy in spite of all the red Failures on that list below. I was definitely over estimating what was even possible. But - in several categories I just wanted to get 1 thing done from the list and that mostly happened.
I didn't do well on bag making this month, but there is always next month to finish the one started. That would be the Chubby Charmer which is partially assembled. I have a couple of other bags kitted up as well.
The best accomplishment is keeping up the the BOM programs. This block is part of the paper-pieced BOM from Carol Doak on Facebook. It's called Circle of Friends. She is posting the September block sometime on Friday, as she wants people to have time to sew over Labor Day weekend. I'm looking forward to it.

You did well with all your lists. Even if you didn't get to everything, you had a lot of progress.
I see more blue checks than red! The pp star is a beauty!
I like how you color coded it - when you look at it - there is a LOT of blue - so success!! and more golf - totally more important than the mile a day!!!
I don’t about Fail, more like pending and look at all that you achieved. A pat on the back is definitely deserved.
