Lots2do,I love your idea,mine for this year is to finish an UFO each month before I can buy any more fabric each month.I know this will be hard,but something has to be done about all of those projects I fell in love with and started then started something else..........and something else.
Wish me luck!!!!
Amma,I love your poem also.

I tell myself I have to get a room clean, or what ever needs to be done before I can sew or get on the computer. Most of the time I can do it, but once in awhile my sewing machine or computer keeps calling to me and I break down and go.

THAT would require a lot of discipline! But I think it is a very wise idea, especially for any who may be tighter on funds. One year my quilting bee made strip quilts as a charity project; each member was to make 2 12" blocks and bring to each meeting. We could not get over how beautiful they looked when finished, even though done by different women using different color schemes. Keep us posted on this resolution:-)

I like this twist, too. That would certainly be helpful as far as cleaning things out.
:)Good luck!
