2010 goals?

Anyone have any new stitching/knitting/etc , goals for this year?

I'm hoping to get my old job back (laid off) in March, and school starts mid January, but in the meantime I'm working on "house" projects and want to work on a lot of cross stitch that I haven't touched at all this year.

I can't decide which project to work on after I finish the little bunny picture (my post under Merry Christmas). I hate making these kinds of decisions! Banging your head

Well, I told my DH that if he got the job in New York I'd knit him a sweater. So I'll be knitting him a sweater this year.

To stitch a little each day -- or a lot if time will allow. I didn't make most of my goals last year so I'm hoping this year will be better. Needle

Finish my DMC freebie (that won't take too much longer);
Finish TW's Stretch; (that won't take long, either);
Finish at least one other piece.

How's that?

Sounds great, Heather. Stretch was my first TW piece. It was I love it

at first stitch. I love the way the blends work on that one.
