Good for you to spend time with the girls. Hope to do a few more quilts for soldiers and finish a couple UFO's.

Good luck with your new year resolutions. Mine is to finish my UFO's, wish me luck !!!

I am about 1/3 of the way through my scrap boxes; cutting up the "Bonnie Hunter scrap saver way" and I WILL finish that before starting new projects. Also my orphan blocks will be on the back of my quilts and the backs will rival the fronts. UFO's are next. I may get started on new projects about June!!!

Love your resolutions. Passing the art of quilting on to the next generation is so honorable. Can't wait for my granddaughters to get a bit older to teach them. So far, they love to hang out with me in the sewing room when they come to visit. I want to finish projects and only start one new project in the meantime. Use up the scraps for charity quilts, attempt to quilt the smaller items myself, and finally, finish at least one needle turn applique block a month. It's doable.

I need to remember to work on something for at least 15 min. a day. I am handicapped but 15 min can accomplish a lot if you are diligent

Like yours, I want to learn a new technique each month at least, and practice it on something gifty

I thought it would be but it's really not that hard. I found a few tutorials for it but they just confused me. I found a few pics that showed me. What you do is take your background fabric and applique fabric and layer them with the applique fabric on bottom with the right side up and then the background fabric on top of the applique fabric with right side up. Then, pin the applique template to the top of the background fabric (or trace around it). Baste 5/16" around the outside of the template. Then, carefully trim the background fabric, 1/4" away from the INSIDE of the applique tracing, leaving the applique fabric exposed. Clip the curves and then gently turn under and handstich so that the applique is actually in the back. When finished, remove the basting threads.

my goal is to set deadlines and then aim to get the project finished by that date.

I have a pile of UFOs to finish, most of them will end up with a local charity for kids in out of home placements. I also intend to make several scrap quilts, befoe the scraps overwhelm me completely.

I got WAY behind after we rolled our truck a year and a half ago, but I am starting to make and indent into the piles.

Like Jollyquilting, I am disabled, but the problems are mainly in my leg, so quilting is no problem.
