I have started thinking about sewing resolutions for 2013...after all it IS right around the corner! I would like to be more organized, and make more quilts for charity and also get more tops into finished quilts! For a chance to win my bunny, please leave me a comment and let me know if you have any quilty resolutions as well, or if there are new techniques you are thinking about trying for 2013. I am willing to ship internationally so this contest is open to all until Monday, December 17th 2012 when I will chose a random winner :)
Happy Holidays to you all and enjoy the blog hop!!!

Is it too late to be in the blog hop? I've done this every year, but I must have missed it somehow. Thanks Robin.
Hah, new techniques? Yup! If it can be considered a technique, to get going on a couple UFOs!
Darling little bunny pincushion. Always good to set some new goals and really try to accomplish them. Every time I clean up my sewing room I can't seem to find anything! Maybe I work better in clutter.
I am hoping to finish my very first quilt in 2013! And do a lot more sewing in general since I'll have way more space in our new house.
what a cute bunny!.. I would like to finish up more of my WIP's.. thank you for a chance to win.
I need to gem my quilting supplies organized!
Love the bunny! I am really going to try and do some finish quilts this next year!!!!! Thanks
My resolution is to finish one project completely before I start a new one. I would like to push it to 2 old projects but am trying to be realistic!
aww cute bunny love pin cushions
The bunny is so cute.
My resolution if you can call it that is to not get sick next year so that once I finish my treatments I can finally get a bunch of stuff finished.
Resolution? The same one I make every year and fail at miserably...FINISH WIPs and UFOs.
No resolutions...I just want to maybe finish a quilt or two in 2013. Thanks for a chance to win.
I just learned how to sew/quilt in October, so I am trying to learn how to bind to make beautiful borders for the quilts that I am working on!
I would love to finish everything I start within a reasonable time!
This Bunny is soooo cute! My quilting resolutions for 2013 are to 1. Finish any new project I start (so as not to add to my unending UFO list), and 2. finish at least one big project that's been languishing on my UFO list for too long!
Love the bunny!! Resolutions!!!! Already!! I set goals. My main goal is to get better organized and declutter my studio!!!
My goals for 2013 are to try applique, and to quilt at least 1 quilt a month from my stacks of quilt tops. Thanks for the chance to win.
Dutch rabbits are so sweet. I really need to work on my FMQ in the New Year. Best Wishes!
How cute!! My quilting resolution would be to finish more UFO's. Thanks for the giveaway!
I dont have fabric now but when ido i donate my quilts to the neonatel intensive care and lap quilts to the physical therapy ward. I was there for over two months and know how hard it is to get around in a wheel chair with a sheet or blanket to cover your legs. They either slide out in the floor or get hung in the wheels babscorbitt@gmail.com
I'd like to do more with curves.
I don't really do any resolutions. I'm going to try to quilt all of my (many) flimsies, before starting more. Thanks for the generous giveaway, from another Long Islander. ;->
My quilty resolution for this next year is to do some smaller quilts and maybe even open up an etsy store. I'm a little leary about that as I know nothing about running a business but I willing to learn.
My resolution is to do more machine quilting. Thanks for the giveaway.
Love the bunny! I plan to learn to use my new sit down quilting machine in 2013, Thank you for the great giveaway. jbechosend at sbcglobal dot net
He is very cute. My goal is to improve my FMQ skills.
I've got a Michigan address ready for a new home for such a cute bunny!

I loooove Warren Kimble and this bunny is too cute! As for quilting resolutions, every year I say I'm going to make lap quilts for the grand-nieces and nephews! This year I'm going to try my first QAYG lap quilt... may help with the resolution!
I started 3 blocks of a quilt early this year. My 2013 goal will be another 3 blocks! LOL it's my first solo quilt.
I am planning to finish 9 already started and new projects..fingers crossed! ;)

To keep on keeping on... :) Hopefully this winter I will be able to quilt all the tops I made over the summer.

Thanks for the lovely giveaway. My major hope for 2013 is improved health --- which will then allow me to address some of my quilty goals like learning to FMQ or quilt-in-the-hoop.
I would like to make some smaller projects for in my home to show that I am a quilter. I have nothing!
Your little bunny is adorable! My resolution is to make a list of all my projects...I don't think I'm brave enough to publish it, but I will put it somewhere in my sewing corner and get started in the new year!
No resolutions, but hopefully I can actually do a little more quilting than I was able to this year.
Cute rabbit! I'm going to do a string quilt in 2013 or maybe 2@
Thanks for the giveaway. My resolution is to get organized so that I can get a lot more projects done this next year.
Am with you on the finishing up a bunch of my tops....they just need quilting and binding:)
No more than 3 ufo's at a time!
no resolution just keep quilting
My quilting resolution is to finish all the projects I started this year and find more quilt time for me! I hope you survived Sandy OK...my aunt lives in Huntington and they were in such shock(they're elderly) over the devastation along the Sound. Your rabbit is lovely :)
My quilting resolutions for 2013 are to make at least one LARGE quilt.. for my bed! Just got to stay focused!

What a fun party blog time! Thanks for a chance to win your cute bunny.
My 2013 resolutions is to whittle down my UFO's by giving away, selling, finishing or donating them.
Thanks for being part of this fun blog hop. I'm learning how to use my long arm quilting machine and hopefully be able to do others quilts next year.
I want to complete more quilting and sewign projects this year and learn how to do that free hand stipple designs to quilt them.

what a lovely pincushion!
I MUST finish a quilt I've been working on for 2 years!
I'd like to learn to do curve piecing:) Merry Christmas!
I have also been working on that organization piece of my sewing. And tonight as I was sewing some last minute gifts the need for this was confirmed...wasted more time looking for stuff than sewing stuff! LOL
The bunny is wonderful...he would match my collection of Warren Kimble furniture, dishes, etc... Thanks for the opportunity!
Oh I wish I could be more organized in the New Year...but I think I know better. Love your little bunny he is adorable!
That is a gorgeous pincushion! I have a friend who has been taking care of her daughter who has 3 types of cancer who needs a really BIG pick me up. She is a rabbit collector. She would really enjoy receiving this! Please use my link to include her in the giveaway. If I were to win, Faith would receive the bunny.
I love organization but sometimes things do get upside down, especially when I am sewing on several projects at once. I keep a really neat home most of the time but once I was working on several things and my sewing room was in a really total mess (thank goodness it was upstairs - out of sight). My mother in law came by one day to see what I was working on and I told her she couldn't go up until the next day so I could clean up a bit. She kept on begging to go upstairs saying my house was always clean. I finally told her to go ahead. When she got to the top of the stairs she hollered out, "Thearica!!!". I laughed and said "I told you so!
I have set some aspirations for 2013 which include learning to knit something other than the regular afghan. I want to do some cross stitching (something I have not done in 12 years) and I also want to learn to paper piece! Paper piecing and I have a love/hate relationship...mostly hate! My blocks always come out wonky and hit the trashcan!
Thank you for the awesome giveaway! Merry Christmas!
What a cute bunny!! I'm going to enter two art - quilt shows this year that I didn't enter last year. AND I'm not going to worry if I get in or not - I'm just going to keep doing my thing - the way I do it.
I am a pincushion collector, so this g-away would be so awesome. I will make a resolution to be more involved in my community service quilting. Make more quilts for those in need!
Love the pincushion. My quilty resolution would be to complete more projects. Thanks for the chance to win!

To quilt my daughter's quilt top I made last year. She has returned it to me to quilt. We decided not to use a long arm quilter. Instead I will do it on my sewing machine.
that bunny pincushion would be the hightlight of my pincushion collection... so cute. As for my quilty resolution would be to finish the 5 quilts I have in the works for my grankids and to increase the number of charity quilts I make for my charity group.
Love the bunny! I'm going to continue my last year's resolution - to get into my studio every day. Your site wouldn't let me join (maybe I'm already a member and I forgot?) but I'll try again. Hope I can still be in the drawing!
Would love to get a few more UFO's finished. I started with some of them this year, and hope to continue. Thanks for the giveaway.
I will finish the rag quilt I started.
I will finish the doll I started on. thanks ofr the giveaway.
I'm hoping to sew an I Spy quilt for my grandson next year.

I want to learn curved piecing.
Love the bunny and would not think of sticking pins in that cute thing!
I want to continue sewing some charity dresses for youngsters.
My carry over resolution is to get my sewing room clean and organized...failing at this, but the bunny is absolutely adorable!
Getting really good at paper piecing is my goal.
Oooh...my goal for 2013 is to make a pincushion and a needle book (I don't know why I don't have either - have just been making do without them for years!). LOVE your pincushion!
My goal for 2012 wasn't finished - a Christmas quilt to display this year - soooo my goal is to not only work on some of my UFOs but to have a beautiful Christmas quilt for next year!
I would like to learn to do FMQ. It just looks so hard that I don't try very hard.
