Some tips to give your plan some focus:

~Decide on a size before you start.
Or at least the end result. You can use the inspiration words ON something or use them as inspiration to make something.

Some other ideas I had include making:
a sampler quilt
apron
girl stuffie
tote bag
a donation quilt

~Keep it simple.
Don't try a whole bunch of new things. Pick a new colour to play with and a new technique. Or get out a quilt pattern that you love and have never made time to make.
This is supposed to be fun - don't set yourself up for failure:)
