When you count UFO's, do you count the ones that you have purchased fabric for but haven't started ? If so, then I have about 15 more to do right now! LOL

I'm with you. Nothing new.

I resolve to wash all my fabrics in my stash, so I don't have to stop and do it when I want to start something new. I will not promise to iron them as they are washed, though.

Hahahahha...I tend to break all my resolutions always, !!!
So to not feel guilty about it, I don't have any resolutions anymore..........;-) Do I feel relaxed!!!!!!! |
Four years ago I resolved to finish each quilt I started, keeping in mind that the quilt is finished when the last stitch in of the binding is taken. This year I made six quilts, finished one. I think I'm making progress.

I want/need to use up as much fabric stash that I can in 2012. This is the same goal as 2011 and I have used up a lot, but still have a LOT. I am allowing myself to buy the 4 Bs...backing, batting, border, and background fabrics. I will buy a small amount of fabric to go with something I have IF I am trying to make a quilt.

I have one UFO - waiting for DH to tell me what font he wants the embroidery work done in so I can get it to my embroiderer. Once that is done I can put it on the Longarm and it will be done and for sale.
Other than that I'm done! So get to start all new ones! Opps, I do have one to Longarm that's been waiting for a spot in line to be done. lol Phyllis QuiltingGrannie Quilter's Pantry |
I joined the UFO thread and hope to make headway through those UFOs. I will start a project or two, but I am also going to work those projects from my stash, which these past 2years has grown out of control. I will be selling some fabric and books throughout the year to make me feel like I am being serious about reducing my stash. It has taken me over 24 months to adjust to the loss of a very good friend, whose husband now has another companion (in his 70's). She was an avid reader of extentialism and was very brave. I realized recently that I have accumulated alot of stuff during my sadness the last 2 years and I am ready to lighten my load. One of my UFO's is her quilt that I didn't finish as I was a caregiver along with her husband. It took alot out of me, I can talk about it now, wow!!! I am going to keep her quilt for me.
