It's a nice relief for me to see that so many others have a lot of UFOs!

I want to quilt several BOM's. 2014 and 2013 will be completely pieced, a couple of others have enough done so just need finishing. I am not going to start another one for at least a year. That's the resolution, ha! and resolutions are easily broken.

Trash to treasure top
2014 BOM
Christmas houses........that will be for next year .....hopefully :unsure:
At the moment I'm practising FMQ on some orphan blocks and will then make them into some sort of quilt.
The trouble is ...life gets in the way, I'm chasing dust bunnies, washing, ironing, getting food ready and so it goes on.
Maybe this afternoon I can actually do some sewing.

I really enjoyed Patsy Thompson's video on using rulers on the daily blog. That's another resolution for me - to get better using rulers on both my domestic and HQ Platinum 16 and be pleased with the end results on the quilts I'm going to finish..

I need to work harder at taking things off my list instead of adding to it. I'm almost finished piecing bed runner #10 using UFO's, practice blocks, and demo blocks. I'm hoping to complete 8 more soon. Then they all have to be quilted and bound. I have several special quilts to make for family and friends. What I really want to do is quilt my 2011 BOM's and Kaleidoscope quilt from a workshop with Paula Nadelstern. These need to be show worthy so I'm waiting until other more important things are finished first. I always enjoy seeing everyone's finished projects.

I have all the patches pieced for the 2010 TQS Star Crazy BOM. I would love to finish that. I have Celtic Solstice waiting for borders and to be quilted. I have a Pineapple Trash to Treasures top waiting to be quilted and I want to start more. I have a DGS who will have his First Holy Communion this spring and I've got to start that soon. Wouldn't you know I have obligations for more than half the month of January that will keep me away from my sewing machine. Wish me luck/focus!

I want to complete a Quilt of Valor. I have enough fabric and have several patterns in mind - have to choose one and start it.

As with the past few years, I have a lot of projects I want to finish. I have six quilt tops to be quilted and two tops that just need the border finished and they will be ready to quilt. I would really like to have these all completed in 2015. I am also working on a Bonnie Hunter quilt that I would like to finish -- my husband brought me the fabric when he was in Texas and Oregon..and I am trying to decide if I will do the TQS 2015 BOM. :unsure: It would be my first BOM from TQS and it is really beautiful.

Mine is with all of my own fabrics and is scrappy. I chose all batiks with jewel tones on caramel background fabrics. I think I got to May or June before I had to put it aside for other things.

I really regret not buying the Ruffled Roses kit. Did you buy the kit or select your own colorway?

The one project I have to finish is the quilting of my sister and her new husband's wedding quilt. That has a hard deadline of next Christmas, but I'd like to get it done this spring so it can go in the county fair, assuming it turns out nice enough. I believe that is my only "commitment" quilt for this year. After that, I have a long list and will probably add more during the year. The tops on my mind right now are finishing the piecing for my Bonnie Hunter Grand Illusions quilt, making progress on Sedona Star and Ruffled Roses and starting the marking and quilting of an angel wholecloth quilt that I have designed. But that's just a handful of what I have going!

I look forward to seeing everyone's progress on all of their projects through the year!!
