Wish-to-do list

I ran across an appealing activity today at Barbara's Cat Patches.  She's organizing a 2013 NewFO Challenge, where we are encouraged to at least START a new project each month -- with no expectations about finishing them.  I don't have very many UFOs, so this might be a good opportunity for me to create a few :)

Possible new starts for me next year might include:

Jan -    Valentine quilt for DIL Jess based in this block:

 

STARTED JANUARY 3, 2013      COMPLETED JANUARY 20, 2013

 

********************

 

Feb -   Woodland Clover in scrappy greens, just like these blocks by Pat Speth in More Nickel Quilts:

 

STARTED FEBRUARY 4, 2013  

 

********************

Mar -  Calico Garden by Florence Peto (applique)
Apr -   Independence Day Strings - Jess
May -  Apples + Cores 30s
June -    berries?         
July -   Lincoln’s Watch by Bonnie Blue/Red Crinoline Quilts (Nov queen)
Aug -   String Tulips (piecing + applique)
Sept -    7 Rail - leftover fabrics from Lincoln's Watch (Nov lap):

Oct -   log cabin - Christmas
Nov -   Delectable Mountains - Kismet
Dec -   red + white

Well, lots of interesting ideas anyway, and no pressure to get them all done! I should be able to manage the pieced projects, but the two involving applique will be a whole 'nother level of challenge for me.  I am the world's most inept applique-er.  Sigh.  Maybe 2013 will be the year that I improve that ...
