after Christmas
 

Collapse first, Then pick myself up--- quilt three tops go thru my scraps from many years of sewing and cut out charm squares, Make up a kit quilt that I purchased from a shop hop and a Halloween quilt. Read some good books, maybe talk my DH into a month in Fla.

I have to make a baby quilt for my granddaughter that is due early April, possibly on my birthday! And we picked names for Christmas 2012 so I can make a quilt for that person. My sewing year will fill up!

After I get done with the four wolf panels I'm presently working on for DS, I will make the Magical Yule panel for ME. I worked really hard to find/get the border fabric as shown in Quilter's World. I think it's SO pretty!

When I was in TN a few months ago my aunt gave me a full size log cabin quilt top that she had hand pieced 20 years ago. She said that she had lost interest in it and it was just taking up space. She knew that I had bought a Juki/frame and that I'm in the learning stages...I will be marking the squares with a stencil called Lady Slippers, putting it on my frame and then start quilting it.

I will keep on keeping on......there is no time to rest !!!! LOL

I have some BOM quilts to finish.

I have my son's quilt to quilt after I finish my mom's which is not going to get done before Christmas. I have lots of UFOs to finish but a new project just came up this week.

I have had a coupleof weeks where all I have heard from friends is bad new. SO many people are in the hospital or are having treatment for one thing or another. I just heard someone who I never thought would be pregnant is pregnant. I work with her and her husband for many years now. They know it is a little girl so I am going to start looking for pink fabric.

Kathy, I could have written this. I tried the "no buying moratorium" for 2011 but didn't make it past Feb. Good luck

Between finishing of UFOs, I'm either going to start a floral Log Cabin ala BarnBum or a Labyrinth quilt.

The first thing I want to do is rearrange my sewing/quilting room. I am planning to buy a new machine in a couple of months. I really need to buy either a 6' or 8' table and then a smaller one so I have more room. Right now my machine is sitting on the top of my mother's old Kenmore machine/cabinet. I have NO room to my left because I can't open it up...and where it's sitting it would hit the wall anyway. I have a large antique bureau that was my grandmothers so hubby is going to clean it up for me and I'll be able to store fabric and supplies in it...instead of crates and boxes piled all over the place. Once I get everything the way that I want it...then I will start with the wallhanging kit that I bought months ago. Also have fabric to make 3 wallhangings...bought most of it back in the summer. As far as purchases...the only thing I will need for the wallhangings is batting and backing fabric. I may have bought backing fabric for one of them when I ordered all the piecing fabric from fabric.com. See...I don't even know what I have because it's in bags and boxes piled up on the floor. I need to get semi-organized before I buy the Janome 6600...I CAN'T WAIT!!!
