WOWZA!!! A few things....
We can't talk about 2011 yet. I don't want to hear my deadline for this year is almost up!!! I'm all for having a 2011 thread too so we can keep track...and I'll try to get better and starting/finishing more projects. I'm happy I've gotten my emergent quilts done!
Jetnica: I officially want to live where you live. I have no idea where that is, but I know I only have 24 hours in my day. I know if I don't eat or sleep I can't get anything done. I can count on 1 hand how many things I did get done this year. Maybe, if I am your neighbor, I'll have a month or so worth of hours in my day too! That is a staggering list! Way to go! I might have to look at your post periodically to keep myself motivated!

lol -- notice that the list is SHORT on quilt and LONG on "projects" (bags, placemats, bibs...)
My list for next year is SUPER LONG too
It also helped that we had 17 snow days off of school in february.

I'm not that far north (most people consider us southern) but a bus in a nearby county went off the road a couple of years ago when it started snowing, so they call off school if snow is in the forcast.

I have 8 quilt tops that are ready to quilt, I can load them onto the gracie frame and get them done.
I have many kits to do so I know I won't be lacking things to do. I have a huge stash so now is the time to start using it.
Have a happy new year!

And start/finish a quilt kit that I bought way back in the summer. It is called Cheese and Crackers.
I have all the fabrics I need for these quilts. I just need to get up my courage and start them!!

I have two babies on the way in the family this spring that will need quilts!!
Complete the swaps I joined.
Figure out how to complete an attic window quilt...I have the fabric to get started...not the courage.
And as I sort I am going to cut strips to make a scrappy trip around the world quilt for myself!!!!
