I am one that likes to finish the tops better than piecing them. I am getting two tops that on aunt has that were made by my grandmother and great grandmother to finish soon and I am so excited to see them and make them a finished quilt.

I'm a (17) topper. The rest isn't as much fun.

I think an alien might have taken the border fabric! lol

I am glad I asked this questions because it reinforces that quilters come in all types...including alien and native!

I admit it..I too am a topper. I have two or three tubs with just tops. I get these ideas in my head (now convinced they come from aliens) and I have to put together more and more tops..I can't stop..is there a ta (topper annonymous) around anywhere?!:D

I really like all aspects of making a quilt, including the quilting. I have a few larger quilt tops waiting to be finished because I'm hoping to buy a long arm sometime in the future.
I have quilted up to a king size on my DSM, but it was not easy.

LOL!!! I'm too new to quilting to move on to another before I finish the one I'm working on. I'm too afraid I'll never finish it. How long will this alien status last? Will I eventually throw caution to the wind and start a new quilt top without the concern of a UFO???
