So, I made my list of projects that I plan to make in 2019. I didn't get anything done in 2018, despite my good intentions. This list will hopefully give me goals and direction. Definite intentions.
I'd like to start hand applique on the Caswell Quilt, make a Christmas quilt, a Fall quilt, a Row quilt, join a BOM or BOW, a QAL and make some more table runners. I also wrote down my list of unfinished things. Hoping to check off most (?) of them. Some are minor fixings.
The big thing for me is the No But Challenge. I have more fabric than I could ever use in a lifetime.
What are you planning for 2019?

I didn't know until I saw that pattern!!! Maybe make a block or two! Thanks for the inspiration!

I have a hexie quilt top that is languishing that I need to get back to. I can't make any other quilt tops until I get that one done, but that doesn't stop me from starting knitting and crochet projects.

My list for 2019 is blank! Multiple health issues with DH, and a few for myself, made 2018 tough going. I was able to finish one baby quilt, small projects, and just made 10 tote bags, and about a dozen Scandinavian stars as Christmas gifts. Hopefully I'll get to all those quilts I planned to do. I've found going with the flow and taking things in stride is OK too. I do have many half finished projects I want to finish and clean up before I start any more, but, who knows!

My biggie for 2019 is something I have been looking forward to for some time. Bonnie Hunter will be in Shipshewana in late 2019. That's only eleven miles from me. I got busy and finished the top for Allietare, it was one of my UFOs, and on this board I found a long armer. Then I can be in the Show and Tell. It's not Bonnie Hunter colors, they are totally different.

Then for the rest of the year, I hope to quit buying more fabric and complete more UFOs.

I have a T-shirt that has been begging me to finish it for a year now so plan to do that in Jan. I have a Irish Chain started that I put on hold for Christmas and a Heat quilt cut. I also have a dog quilt cut and a quilt for one of my boys that needs to get done. We are having a reunion in July and I've been ask to make a raffle quilt for that. AND NO BUYING FABRIC unless I need it for a specific project.

That look fabulous! I'm planning on Bonnie's retreat too and I'm going to try to get my En Provence done by then. If it turns out half as good as yours I'll be happy.

No list yet, but most of what I should have quilted down last year still remains to be quilted. I had a lot of bad health this past year and just didn't/couldn't get stuff done. Plus the tops that were finished this year but not yet quilted. My to-be-quilted stack grows ever larger... I'm making a series of themed quilts for me for each month of the year in addition to other projects.

Top of my non-list is my farm quilt (August). Need to work on some paper pieced blocks and layout. I have fabrics collected/ready for a lone star sampler (is it still lone when there are 9 of them??), January's top. Fabrics are all blue/white snowflake designs and the lone stars will be sort of snowflake-like, I know the number of sides isn't correct but so it goes. Have another set ready for a Christmas string quilt, December's top. I made a top previously but decided it didn't compare with the other months and it was more of a couch sized than bed sized. Once those 3 tops are made, that will be my year. So far though I only have February, May, July, and October quilted down.

Still haven't gotten feedback on what to do for my newlywed son and DDiL, but that should make the list.

I know I want to do something this year with a 3-D effect but haven't chosen the design yet (hoping maybe the kids like that idea). I also know I want to make a contemporary style quilt and I have most of the fabrics collected for that, as well as a general idea of what I want to do. I have background and border fabrics chosen for a Hazel Hedgehog quilt, am going to use solid scraps for the Hedgehogs and need to pull those from my solids box, based on the colors from the border fabric.

Had a math moment or two when I was cutting the setting triangles for my Turkey fan quilt (November), somehow I cut the side setting triangles incorrectly, but the top/bottom were correct. Am working on fixing that today, fortunately I had (past-tense now) enough background fabric to recut the setting triangles.

Once I'm done correcting the top and putting on the borders I need to figure out something to take to my small group on Tuesday. Probably a children's donation quilt of some sort. It's not always easy for me to have something portable, we aren't really set up to bring our machines so I usually do some sort of cutting. For my contemporary quilt idea I will be making some one-block wonder blocks, maybe I can get my fabric ready and cut that.

Very interesting making 12 quilts for the year. I'd love to see the entire collection.
