Even if I am able to stick with this I am not sure I will have all my UFO's finished in a year. :)

1.Build a sewing room and fill it with fabric!!! Hubby has promised to make me one this year, so I hope it happens.;-)
2.Make a quilt for three of my kiddos... I made one for the youngest last year and now they all want one too.
3.Join my first block of the month and swap, as I have never even heard of them for quilting until recently... man, I'm pretty far behind huh.

Well I am determined to finish some UFO's and WIP's this year before starting more. So like some others here I want to finish 2 projects for each new one.
I've sat here this morning making a list of my UFO's and I'm upto 10 of them!! The oldest being my rotary basic quilt I did in a class about 10 years ago but I got ahead of the process and backed and bound the top before having it quilted....ooops so I want to take the binding off and change the batting because its a lofty polyester and I don't think I'd be happy with it then have it quilted and try again

1. To spend a little (or lot) of time working on my UFOs each day. I'd like to see at least five of them make it off my shelves and onto beds.
2. To start a monthly charity quilting group. I know many of them already exist across the country and I'd love to add one more to the mix.
3. To learn how to use my new sewing maching for added details.
4. To improve my machine quilting so I can finish the lovely tops just waiting to be quilted.

I am planning to make a quilt a month. Not sure if I will make it, but my goal is to have 12 quilt project completed by the end of 2010. I am working on completing 3 right now just for 2009. I already have to make two twins for my niece and two baby quilts for twins due in March. Also to get my sewing room started and completed.

Oh, I like that idea - one project a month for a total of (at least) 12 at the end of the year. I also would like to watch one chick flick a month this year. Somehow, I never seem to be in charge of the remote much...

I think I'll document my progress in a journal with photos etc. Yes, I like this idea. So simple but so motivating.

Continue making quilts for the children ~
Hubby is going to build a separate garage sometime after the new year, which will allow me to take over the double car garage that is attached to the house. It is heated and a/c'd so I will be converting it to a big quilting room and perhaps have free classes to teach Girl Scouts or whom ever wants to learn. That is my dream.
The sky is the limit!
