My bucket list is so large, it takes up a 55 Gallon drum. I will NEVER reach the end.

My bucket list is endless. I will never complete it. I have actually pretty much quit bookmarking things because I can't decide what to do from the list I have now because there are too many bookmarks now. The next thing I plan to start is my Dear Jane quilt. I will take me years. I plan to just work on it here and there. I am having trouble finding the background fabric I want. I want a just barely of white. White on white pattern. It is all too expensive. I need so much I need to find a good sale.

Most of us probably carry a bucket list around in our heads. The problem I'm having since joining this board is it keeps getting longer and I keep changing my mind about what I'm going to do next. I need another lifetime on this earth to get everything done!!!!

I'm saving mine for eternity because I'll never EVER finish them all here, LOL, and I know we will quilt in eternity or it wouldn't be any fun!!!

This works for me. I'm 67 now and I sew almost everyday. My Gram had me sewing simple things when I was about 7 or 8 years old. Gram lived to be 81 and Mom lived almost to 81, so I'm thinking that just might be my expiration date, like on a carton of milk. Meanwhile I am quilting and sewing and crafting to my heart's content.

It's great to have goals so a bucket list is just that hopes, wishes, wants and maybes. I just turned 85 and the list has changed every year. I am working on making queen sized quilts still but with out buying more fabrics...Oh, but once in awhile I need backings or accents or....or, or.!!!!

I've got kids your age and I don't quilt every day since I work additionally and just don't have that many hours in the day. My bucket will definately kick over before I see the bottom!! You at least have time on your side

I don't have a list, just save whatever appeals to me at the time, & when I want to start something else, I do what's calling me the most. I hate lists, so this works for me, lol...
