    Default Quilting Bucket List?

    Do those of you who refer to your Bucket List actually have a written list? I probably need to write mine down because I tend to forget.......

    No written list, but every time I see a bargello quilt I say to myself "must make one of those!"

    I have tried to list the order of things to finish I have stashed and waiting, but, life makes me get off track. So, I just plug along and try not to get the pile any bigger until I finish some of them. The big problem comes when I get excited about something new and have to try it, or, a need arises and I have to make something totally different than what I have on hand.
    Honestly, when creativity strikes, who can resist?

    I've written a short list of "priority" quilts. Not really an all encompassing Bucket List. The list I have written, includes quilts I have the fabric/pattern put together for and other quilts that for one reason or another I want to make sooner rather than later :-)

    I should have added, that even though I have this list and have made a few on it, I have also made a few that were not on it! Red Garnet is right "when creativity strikes, who can resist"

    I too have an electronic picture file of "one day I'll make that". But gift ideas are always coming up ahead of the line.

    I have no written list, but loads of pictures I've found online that I think are interesting.

    I had a fairly long bucket list (about 30 projects) a few months ago made up of specific people/events to make for and patterns i wanted to make. I sat down and combined projects with people and cut my list down by almost half. But i still end up making something not on the list if the need/want comes up. My bucket list morphs over time and i update it a few times a year. I have a bucket list on Pinterest as well for inspiration, but will never get to the 1500+ i have pinned!
