OK, so I've done something crazy!!
I've signed up to a blog post a day challenge throughout December!
Crazy because —
— it's a busy time of the year (enough craziness without adding to it huh?!)
— I have enough trouble blogging once a week let alone once a day
BUT
Challenges motivate and inspire. They push you outside your comfort zone. By signing up, they make you accountable.
AND, if I can get through the 31 days of December, blogging every day, I can accomplish anything!(hehe, within reason!)
Cheryl Sleboda is the host of The 2019 31 day Blog Writing Challenge, and the list of other participants is *here*.
I promise not to blog about the one seam I've sewn that day and the next and the next (or have endless posts of very cute grandies) but I know I will struggle to keep it varied and interesting — if you ever have any questions or ideas for me, please let me know. Cheryl has also put together a prompt list for us for when we are struggling :-)
Before I went off on holiday I had got back into my Country at Heart Alphabet stitcheries and now I need to complete only three more and they'll all be done.
Traced and ready to go, the stitcheries went to the USA with me, and came back again, still carefully packed in their bag and without seeing the light of day!
I am hoping to get them done by the end of theyear month.

ReplyDeletenow --me--I do know that I need to post more often than once a week--though I have tried to do 2x's a week--but that just doesn't seem to happen these days--but now it is because I am truly busy with life!!! So I am hoping to do better in the future--time will tell!!
good luck--luv, di
I would love to participate in that challenge, but i know this month isnt possible no matter how hard i try. But i am going to look forward to reading your posts. I love your OMG, so much in fact that i am going to order it. Wishing you the best in your efforts.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with your Blog a day
ReplyDeleteI look forward to popping in every day to see what you have been up to
I have the opposite problem from yours. I spend so much time writing about my quilting projects that I don't get much actual quilting done! I need to have a Get In the Sewing Room Every Day challenge for December. Good luck with your blogging goal and enjoy that well-traveled hand stitching project!
ReplyDeleteYep, you’re crazy, but I will enjoy reading them each day.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the writing... I'll enjoy the reading.... and hopefully a bit of stitching gets done too....

ReplyDeleteGood luck with the challenge Raewyn, I would be happy to see the farm and the grandies most days 😁. I thought me trying to do a block a day for the month was enough of a challenge!! Your stitcheries look lovely. Looking forward to your posts.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the stitching, and the writing! Wow! A blog post a day! That needs discipline. I would call one every other day an achievement. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteThis looks like fun. Good luck!
