time in the future?

Hi, so if i want to say that i will do a project in the future, but i dont know the exact amount of time, how should i say it?
for example if i do know that it will takes me 2 month, i can say "i will do a project in the next 2 months", is it right?
Sorry for my bad english Emotion: stick out tongue
