This is NOT a list of New Year's Resolutions - I know I won't keep those! But I do want to make a list of projects that I want to finish or continue on during the year. Will "publishing" it make me more likely to actually stick to it - not sure about that, but here goes:

OK, that's that enough to list for today. Amazingly, I don't think I would have to have any more material to do all of these projects! Maybe some for backings, but not even sure about that. Can you tell that I must have a pretty big stash right now? If I am counting right, about 20 of these are finishing or continuing on projects already started. I would be astonished if I got all of those finished this year, but it is a goal I could strive for. I will be starting with #'s 1, 3, 6, 7, 15, 24 and 37 though not necessarily in that order. #18 is an on-going project that I work on mostly on Wednesday mornings before I meet with the ladies at the Senior Center on Wednesday afternoons. I am hoping to have #1 and #15 done in time for our next guild meeting - Jan 12. So I'd better stop working on my list and start working on Van Gogh! I am hoping that putting this list out for all to see will be some encouragement for me to try to be a "completer" this year.

What a great list! I am scared to do mine! I would have way too many! And I keep adding more all of the time!
Sounds like you have a plan! I have made a small list, but I'm sure I will add to it as I finish sorting through my mess. You have some very interesting projects listed, I can't wait to see them.

What a list. Best of luck.
My to do list is quite small but you can guarantee that either Gemma or Mal will be adding to it over the year.

What a great list...I wish I knew what I had upstairs in my quilt room so it is difficult to come up with a plan. I am hoping to make a to-do list by the end of January but this is a hope that I have!
Good luck ... I am sure you will complete your list!
