Starting In 2010 I Will....

I will bind this quilt that I made about 2 years ago- about time! I plan to hang it in my long entrance hallway as the colours are just so wonderful. It is made from Chocolat, and it was one of my favorite lines and colours ever.
I will finish cutting out this Bonnie Hunt Christmas quilt that was featured in Quiltmaker magazine.
And...I will start the Bunny Hill BOM from 2008 called "I Believe in Angels". I will do block one in January and try to finish it in 2010.
My goal each month is to bind a quilt, start a new project and finish a "labour of love". That is three projects each month which should be manageable. I need room in my studio, so this is the plan of attack. I have a beautiful sunny room that I want to put a chair in so that when I hand sew I can watch TV or listen to a book, or music, and not bother anyone else. (or is that not have anyone bother me??) So I am starting to save for a comfy chair. I will show you tomorrow what I saved for the past several years. My daughter has my camera tonight on her last night of freedom before she goes back to school, so I couldn't take any pictures... let's just say that I now have feed dogs that drop...
