2019 and Review of 2018

Below I copied and pasted my 2018 Plans.  Where did the year go?

I think it would  be fair to say that 2018 was a quilting disaster.  We decided to put the house on the market.  We found a buyer the first day (last June), but are still waiting in a chain.  Here we are on the 2nd January, 2019, and we still don't know if the sale will go through or if the chain will collapse.  It is impossible to plan anything...and all the hassle can be overwhelming! ...Oh, and I am waiting for surgery on both feet!

Enough excuses.

Plans for 2019

Is there any point in making any plans with life in limbo?  I shall just plod on doing what I can until my life sorts itself out!

I have started  a Skitch a Day project with GourmetQuilter.  I have done the first week's little skitches.

I also want to get properly to grips with EQ8.

Happy New Year! x
