More resolutions
I’ve never been one to set resolutions, but Eileen and all of those commenting on the post below have really got me to thinking about what I want to do this year. So here’s my list:

100_1553.gif1.    Finish this quilt. Well, at least the top. I’ve been working on it for one and a half years already, and I love it and can’t wait for it to be one that I use. So, I just need to finish it.
2.    Do something crafty every week. It’s so easy to not drag out my sewing machine or crafting supplies. But once I do, I’m always happy I did. So, I just need to do it.
3.    Bloom where I’m planted. I saw this post on Gala Darling’s blog (I’ve mentioned her before here), and it really hit home. Instead of waiting for the next thing to happen, I am going to make the effort to make the most of my life now, how it is.

Be sure to share your resolutions at Eileen's post for your chance to win a copy of 601 Great Scrapbook Ideas.

Until next time,
Christine

Love the quilt Christine! - is this a D.Schmidt? And thanks for the inspiring link...a nice reminder to live in the present.

I didn't use one of her exact patterns, but yes, I was definitely inspired by the book Denyse Schmidt Quilts: 30 Colorful Quilt and Patchwork Projects. I've never done a quilt on a white field before, and she's the one who inspired me to try it!
