The Monday “What have you done lately?” accountability post, where I announce my Needle and Thread: Stitching for Literacy program promotion goal for the week and fess up on last week’s goal.

I’m going to take Mulligan on last week’s goal, okay? I hate to start the 2010 Challenge year with a failure, and I failed in a big way: I didn’t get close to pitching a bookmark pattern to anyone. In fact, I’m not sure what happened to last week; I can’t seem to find it anywhere.

This week, however, I expect to meet my goal. I will track down one last number for our 2009 Challenge bookmark count and write a wrap-up press release. I’ve gotten some nice stories and quotes from participants, and I want to share them.

This is one of the bookmarks collected by Gayle at Accents, Inc. in Louisiana. Next time you’re in New Orleans, go see Gayle.
