First off, I announce the Boxing Day Sew-In on December 26--find out what's going on and who all is involved! Next, it's time to enter in the 2012 Quilty Resolutions Give-Away! We had fun with this last year so I'm doing it again, but with a twist. Listen to this episode for the new guidelines--I'm keeping it focused!

Check out last year's resolutions podcast (Episode 33 In Which We Make Quilty Resolutions) for more information about SMART Goals and how to be successful at working your plan. And by the way, I've since removed the former Resolutions tab that was referenced in episode 33.

Use the online form below to submit your 2012 resolutions (please be sure to listen to today's episode first!). Submissions must be received by January 31, 2012. If, for some reason, the form does not appear below, click here for a direct link.
