If you’re anything like me, the mental “noise” and chaos that comes with the holidays makes it nearly impossible to have any deep thought or introspection and I am so rarely prepared to jump into the new year with my list of goals and action plans come January 1st. Instead I wait, for the dust to settle and the noise to silence, and in a few weeks, or a month, or maybe two I’m finally ready to map out the year ahead. Setting goals can help gain clarity and direction but unmet goals can sometimes make us feel like a failure at the end of the year and that’s just not cool. Here are some thoughts on setting real achievable goals: https://www.oneandonlyhandmade.com/helpinghandmadeblog/blog-post-title-one-jw97l monthly 0.5 2022-03-18 https://www.oneandonlyhandmade.com/helpinghandmadeblog/tag/goalplanner monthly 0.5 https://www.oneandonlyhandmade.com/helpinghandmadeblog/tag/2022 monthly 0.5 https://www.oneandonlyhandmade.com/helpinghandmadeblog/tag/goals monthly 0.5 https://www.oneandonlyhandmade.com/contact daily 0.75 2022-10-15 https://www.oneandonlyhandmade.com/meet-the-maker daily 0.75 2023-07-14 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ebbfc8762b20f629903ef9a/1600637565244-6EOZY4KAZOG3K6QBE8XZ/Kate%2BHeadshots-3.jpg Meet the Maker - Kate. This is not the story about a life full of sewing experience, in fact quite the opposite. I am self taught with the assistance of various blogs, pictures, and YouTube. Through much trial and error I learned how to sew and then to quilt. I started making quilts for family and loved the process of pulling together all of these fabrics to make something really unique and tailored for each of their recipients. Quilts are a fascinating mix of calculated cuts and freestyle creativity, each creating their own story along the way and I got hooked on being able to tell it. Becoming One & Only. Through constant experimentation I started making more and more and before I knew it I had this little collection of blankets, housewares, and textile art. I got a nudge to start selling them and wholeheartedly ran with the idea. I wanted my products to stay genuine and have the same feel as if they were custom made. I vowed to not mass-produce at any scale. Every product is uniquely yours and you will never find the same one sitting on your friend’s kitchen table. It may be a tall order but I want you to love your One & Only products forever. I want your colorful napkins to come out every spring and your children to tote their baby quilts off to college with them. Everything I make carries a little piece of myself with it and I stand by my words that each will be unique, timeless, and well-crafted. https://www.oneandonlyhandmade.com/wash-care daily 0.75 2022-03-20 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ebbfc8762b20f629903ef9a/1647814755586-5GI78YW7WZX1C2R0TN23/unsplash-image-23coWmkTNSg.jpg Wash & Care -
