108 days ago, I joined in on the public creative challenge #the100dayproject. The annual project is hosted by artist Elle Luna and takes place over 100 days. This year we started on April 4th and ended on July 12th. The idea is to pick something creative, work on it every day for 100 days and…

The past few years I have sold a daily goal tracker download. The purpose is to help you make progress on a daily habit in the coming year. This year I am offering the 2017 daily goal tracker as a free download for newsletter subscribers. I send out a newsletter every two weeks or so.…

Setting goals is the easy part. Reaching goals is the fun part. Checking in on your goals? Less fun, but hugely important in actually making progress. I thought it would be good today (since we're just about finished with Q1) to check in on where I'm at with my list of goals from 2015. MAKE29…

I still can't get a post together about MAKE29. That was such a big project that I don't know where to begin (or end), but I thought it would be helpful to just talk generally about why I think that long-term project (it was about 15 months if you include the planning period) worked. No…

I am so excited to share more about my next birthday project plan. If you've been here awhile you're familiar with the birthday project idea.

I'm not a resolution person, but I am a "goal" person. I like something actionable (obviously) and I'm a big fan of to do lists (you already know all this). At the start of each year, I like to come up with something things to "complete" in the next 365 days. Here's last years's list.…

I am so excited to share more about the eleventh month of MAKE29 with you today. It's shocking that we're already at month 11 of 12. But as this edition will tell you…big things happen one day at a time. And it's been 299 days since this MAKE29 launched. When I set out on this…

This week's podcast episode talks about "finding joy in the process." My guest is Astrid, a quilter who decided to make 20 different quilts this year. I found Astrid while falling down the Instagram rabbit hole. (You know the how it goes. I'm just thankful that at the bottom of this hole were gorgeous quilts…
