It is almost January first. I will not make resolutions this year-I will make plans. Maybe that will be more successful. I have a new granddaughter arriving on January 14th if all goes as planned. I need to make quilt, bed ruffle and sheet and curtains for her older sister by the time I get on the plane on the 12th. I also need to finish the seascape for my DIL's b'day which is the 9th. We are going back for a visit in Feb. By then I need to finish the nursery set. I am going to be very busy the next 6 weeks. I wanted to make our almost 3 year old a doll as well-but we'll see. I did get 4 blocks prepped for Dear Jane last night and organized my block keeping system. I had outgrown the 3 ring binder and will probably outgrow this but it will work for a while.
Lastly, the pictures of the stacked boxes all contain quilts in various stages of progress. I will finish at least 3 of those by June (a plan-not a resolve). The bible says: "Without a plan, the people perish". It has always been a favorite verse, however, I tend to over plan and that in itself has almost made me perish-so, I am going to plan to "Be still and know that [He] is God" more this year. That is enough planning-my head hurts:) I am thankful that I am able to still work hard, to plan, to create, to think, to read, to pray-I give all the glory to God my Abba daddy.

Welcome to blogging, and thanks for your sweet note. I will definitely check your posts. You asked about the Kaffe fabric sale. It is at From Here To Quilternity. Great name, huh? Keep in touch, Kay
Great system Elaine. I keep mine in a really big binder which I alphabetized so I know which blocks I have completed and which ones still need to be made
Since I am doing mine by color and starting from the outside in, I am storing them by location:1 slot for A row and 1 for M row, 1 for B-L 1's and 13's. I have a check off sheet as well. I am either going to have to get another one of these or haul a file cabinet around:)-I would love to see what you have done. Thanks for the comment.
