My quilty resolutions for 2009:
1. Finish the quilt for my niece!!!!! And get it done by her birthday (May 17th). It's all basted and everything, it just needs to be quilted and bound.
2. Finish the red pentagons quilt for my son, by his birthday (July 11th). This one just needs a little bit of work before the top is done. One dedicated Saturday (or perhaps two) should do it. I intend to get this quilted for me at my local quilt shop.
3. Finish at least one of the following lap quilts started in 2008: Snowflake Variation, Hourglass, or Scrappy Nine-Patch. Ideally, I'd like to finish all three of them, but that would probably mean not starting anything new. And that ain't gonna happen. Especially since I'd like to do the Doll Quilt Swap at least once next year.
4. Take a class on hand applique.
5. Try paper piecing, even if it's just for a small project.
6. As much as I love my Civil War repros, I need a bit of a break. I've been silently stashing Asian prints, Japanese taupes, and Kaffe Fassett fabrics, and not touching them. Next year, I will touch them. And I will make something. Even if it's just a potholder.
And that's it. Happy New Year, everyone!
