2009 Quilting Resolutions & Goals Revisited

  • Finish at least 2 of my Mom's quilts -I finished 5 quilts & 1 wall quilt so far! 3 more to go.

  • Finish & deliver quilts to all 5 grand kids, this really is a reasonable goal as 3 need binding, 1 put together & 1 started from scratch. - All done, at least for this round!!

  • Make my oldest DD's 2nd wedding quilt. She just had her 4th anniversary, I think she's still using the quilt from the 1st round. Hope she took the label off! - She's still waiting!

  • Finish at least 5 UFO's. - Finished 5 & working on the 6th!

  • Organize my Embroidery Design files & transfer to new computer, I'm up to the F's!! I don't even want to know how many designs I have. - I started this in Jan. & got side tracked, I think this will be a winter project!

  • Decide on Christmas early & have it 90% finished by Nov 1st! - I Better get busy!

  • Walk the dog's at least 5 times a week. -I was doing great before it got hot!

  • Make & donate several quilts to Quilts of Valor. This is special to me as my son Travis is on his 2nd tour in Iraq right now. - 2 QOV's & 2 quilts for the Australian Fire's. Plus fabric & UFO's for Teens & baby's in Texas!

  • Finish Travis's R,W & B quilt for his return home this summer. - Signed, sealed & delivered!
**I feel I've pretty much accomplished my goals for 2009. I've used over 100 yards of fabric from my stash & cleaned out a lot of shelf space. To bad I'm so good at filling it up again!! I'm hoping that by December I'll have everything marked off!

Way to go, Teresa, meeting so many of your goals, and the year is only half over. Great job on the stashbusting too, and you'll have new fabrics to inspire you. Having something fresh in your stash is a good thing!

I happened onto your blog - which I enjoy - and am laughing at your resolutions. They could well be mine! Especially the "but it got hot" part.

Thank you for sharing your artwork.
