I have most of the fabric for Jillaine's quilt, there is one that is backordered. She has approved so now I can start cutting when I have time. I'm not going to be as fast as some of you. I have a lot of commitments. I may be slow but I will be steady :)

oldcatlady......such pretty fabric..and colors.

oldcatlady, I wouldn't care if you were slow with those pretty fabric.. they go together so well, lucky Jillaine!!

Checking in. I have my quilt top finished!!! Next - backing material and sandwiching.

Melinda do you want to see the top? Let me know. If yes, I can post a photo.

Yes Yes Yes and I really need to get moving since I have only cut one thing. Ughhh hope you aren't upset that I am not as fast as you.

Okay, I will take a photo sometime this week. Don't worry. I just like to be a little ahead, just in case something gets in the way!!!

Progress Schedule
 

Breathe, everyone! Some people have more time than others to work on things, AND the deadline is July 1st. That's a total of 26 weeks from the official start date (1/15) to the deadline (7/1). If you're working evenly and steadily, your progress would look more or less like this:

Week 6 (Feb 26): 25% - fabric cut and piecing in progress
Week 13 (April 16): 50% - nearing completion of the top; about to sandwich
Week 19 (May 28): 75% - sandwiched and about to quilt
Week 26 (July 1): 100% - complete and ready to be shipped

So I think most of us are just fine. And several are just over-achievers. :-)

And I LOVE the batiks that are comin' my way! yippee!!!!
