Welcome 2012!

I have more than a few New Year's resolutions this year, most stemming from the important realization that I do have the power to live the life I want.  So this is my first-- when possible, choose to be happy.  If it means appreciating the things I have or learning to let go and try something new, I am going to make a conscious effort to be happy more often than not.  And in case I forget, I put it on a quilt to remind myself.

My other goals for 2012:
  • BUST STASH
  • find homes for those orphan blocks
  • revisit awesome projects that got shelved for one reason or another
  • BUST MORE STASH
  • crumb quilt?
Here's hoping that 2012 brings happiness to everybody, at least most of the time..

    Happiness is a good goal...not always possible....but a good aim. I'm with you on the crumb quilt idea. When do we start?
