Hello Ryleecone,
Try the following code placed in a standard module and assigned to a button:-
The code uses four helper columns (X:AA) just for an instant in the "Completed" sheet to achieve the desired result.
If your graph has been set up correctly, then, each time the code is run, the graph will update based on the new entries in Column B of the Graph sheet.
I've added some comments in the code above (green font) which will help you to understand what's going on.
I hope that this helps.
Cheerio,
vcoolio.

Sub ValuesToGraph()
Dim i As Variant, j As Variant
Dim ws As Worksheet: Set ws = Sheets("Completed")
Dim ws1 As Worksheet: Set ws1 = Sheets("Monthly Graph Completed")
Dim lr As Long: lr = ws.Range("A" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
ws.Range("F2:F" & lr).Copy ws.[X2] '---->Extract the "Due Date" column(F)over to Column X.
ws.Range("X2", ws.Range("X" & ws.Rows.Count).End(xlUp)).Sort ws.[X2], 1 '---->Sort in month order (Jan-Dec).
ws.Range("Y2:Y" & lr) = "=TEXT(X2,""MMMM"")" '---->Extract the month names from Column X to Column Y.
ws.Range("AA2:AA13") = "=COUNTIF(Y:Y,Z2)" '---->Counts the number of month entries.
'The following extracts the unique month names into Column Z so that duplicates are not included.
j = Application.Transpose(ws.Range("Y2", ws.Range("Y" & ws.Rows.Count).End(xlUp)))
With CreateObject("Scripting.Dictionary")
For Each i In j
.Item(i) = i
Next
ws.Cells(2, 26).Resize(.Count) = Application.Transpose(.Keys) '---->Unique month names are placed in Column Z starting in row2.
End With
ws1.Range("B2:B13").Value = ws.Range("AA2:AA13").Value '---->The month quantities are placed in Column B of the graph sheet.
ws.Columns("X:AA").Clear '---->The helper columns are cleared.
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

Hello again Ryleecone,
The following amended code would be a better option as it would account for the months not being in order as well:-

Hello Ryleecone,
I've just created a sample of what I assume would be similar to your workbook based on the images that you supplied and the code does exactly what it is supposed to do in this sample.
If you are still having problems then please supply a sample of your workbook so that we can do some testing with it. To supply a sample, upload a replica of your workbook to a free file sharing site such as ge.tt or Drop Box then post the link to your file back here. Make sure that the sample is an exact replica of your actual workbook. If any of your data is sensitive then please use dummy data.
