#24HOCS March Goals

So here's my plans for March. First up I'm finishing up that last plant for the Homely Houseplants SAL. After that I will focus on 2 class pieces that I want to have ready for my retreat that starts March 26th. Hands on Design and Noteworthy Needle are both doing classes we have homework to complete before the class.

After those are finished I'll start with my #24HoursofCrossStitch Challenge plans.

I would say that's an impressive list of goals but after your successful start to the year, I don't think it is!
Along with all your 'normal' projects, good luck with finishing off the Houseplant SAL and preparing for your retreat. :)

Great goals, I love the Hands on Design project and the Mill Hill Pizza. Not the first thing I would think of stitching but it looks fun.
The freebie bunny is lovely and an Easter Blog Hop sounds like a great idea, who is running that? Maybe I should join in.

Hope you get everything on your list finished. Oh how I would LOVE to take a class with HOD!

Good luck with getting all your goals done this month, especially the homework for both classes. The MillHill pizza looks interesting.

The HoD piece looks amazing, that should be a fun class to be in.
