On my "to do list" in the sewing room is to learn two new techniques. The first one being scrappy applique. I was very happy with the fabric collage shoe that I did at the beginning of this year and thought that I would like to learn another new technique this coming year.
And second on the list is to learn how to make curved blocks. I have been thinking about making a drunkards path quilt for ages and this is a good opportunity to do so.
I will also join in the RSC again this year in order to finish off my fabric scrap baskets. I notice that the colour for January is pink so a pink fabric basket is the first item on my to do list this year.

Great resolutions, and scrappy appliqué looks fun!
The scrappy applique sounds like a fun journey with scraps.
I just love reading about your quilty resolutions. Great luck to you in achieving them.
Great Resolutions and I love learning new techniques. Have a great 2021. Hugs & Love Susie xx
Good luck with your challenges...
The only Fabric Resolution for me in 2021 is to quilt "Urban Owls"
Looking forward to seeing all your projects next year. Shall be fun.
I'm a scrap quilter, but really stressed during a class on scrappy applique' - go figure. Learning to technique's and skills does help us grown in our art form.
Using up some scraps is a great resolution! Have fun learning a new technique!
I nearly listed curved piecing. I got the rulers from its sew wonderful and I did make a small top with curves but I’d like to make more.
I love your goals. I did a pieced orange peel quilt this year and forced myself to conquer curved piecing. I finally had a couple of blocks I was very pleased with by the end. lol It is very satisfying to try something new. Happy New Year!
Great goals! Always fun to learn new skills. Happy stitching in 2021.
Great plan for the New Year. Wishing you a happy healthy New Year.
Great goals! Hope you have a Happy New Year!
Curves are on my list also. That scrappy applique looks real interesting.
Such a great idea. both of your wishes are terrific. looking forward to reading about your progress
I still struggle sewing curves also. Looking forward to reading all of your posts.
I avoid curves at all costs but someday I will make that a goal. You'll be awesome at scrappy applique, I'm sure! Happy New Year!
Love your goals. Love curved piecing.
Scrappy Applique sounds like fun. I avoided curved piecing for a long time. Once I learnt to make Desert Sky, curved piecing no longer scares me.
Karen, I love your goals. Very doable!
I learned to sew curves last year ... and now I'll tackle them without thinking twice!
Happy Quilting! :-)
You’ll have fun with your resolutions. I look forward to seeing your progress. Happy New Year
Once you learn the trick to curves, you will never look back. They can really be fun. Looking forward to seeing what you do in 2021. Happy New Year!
Thanks for the link to that scrappy applique and I'll look forward to seeing you over at the Rainbow Scrap Challenge!! Best of luck in meeting your goals for 2021, Karen.
Great list of resolutions! The scrappy appliqué looks fun and who doesn’t love playing with scraps? 😉
I also want to learn some new techniques this coming year and making blocks with curves is on of them. Good luck with yur resolutions.
Great resolutions - I look forward to seeing your progress with them!
Learning is a wonderful resolution. I send you the best of good wishes.
lovely plans and learning a new skill is always a great one.... I think I should do that too. I looked at some of the others on the blog hop and UFO's is coming up often... I always have lots of those!
Happy New Year and all the very best.... looking forward to another year of blogging with you...

Learning a new technique is a great resolution. The scrappy applique looks very interesting!
Karen, there is a group sewing curves this year. I don't know if you have seen it. I am considering joining. You do your own curved piecing project. It is called The Curves QAL and only lasts about 4 months. I found it at quiltingpatch.blogspot.com.
