FAL, First Quarter, 2016

I'm not ready to change my ways.  I'm still going to make a crazy long list.  I've got projects to clear, a play to direct/costume, and tons of new ideas floating around my head.

2016 FAL



That said, I have other goals this year.  I need to remove some clutter, drop some poundage, and read more.  So, no pressure to finish the list.  I have a few projects for which this is the last list they'll be on.  They will either clear or move on to someone else's list.


Ahem.


Sewing List:

1.  Peacock Costumes--These are for the class play.  I need to make 2 sets of wings.

Some of these will HAVE to get done this quarter as they are for my class play.  I hope to knock out at least three of the quilts.  The reality is, I'm sure at least three more projects will strike me. Sigh.  ADHD, that's me.  Did I mention that I also want to read more this year?
