Congrats on hitting your goal! Which foreign land are you off to?

Congrats! That's quite a list! I only did 5, but I didn't get my machine til October :). Hoping to do more in 2012, and not have to hold myself to the "galloping horse" standard!!!

patrick, that's pretty damn amazing for not getting your machine until october. do you have any planned yet for 2012? i've only got two must-do's: a wedding quilt for jamie barton (do you know her?), who happens to be marrying beau's best friend darryl, and a baby quilt for our next-door neighbors.

Just three so far- a baby quilt for my sister (a whirleygig which I already started and is "due" in the next two weeks), a toddler quilt for a friend who just requested it, and a green quilt, cause that's a color I have not used much yet. My stash has grown a bit, so hoping it will be easier to put fabrics together- picking fabrics online is hard!

awesome! can't wait to see what you make. i looove online fabric shopping. too much. around here it's pretty hard to find modern fabric, so it's how i buy most of my fabric.

Congrats on reaching your goal, I had the same goal but failed miserably, got sidetracked into sewing too many other things!
Funny really because this year we are hopefully moving to another country and im trying to persuade Adam that we should have another baby too!
Hope its an amazing year for you
