My quilting curse has finally been lifted! First, my old machine, which I had been taking apart and putting back together for the last year, finally died. Then, just when I got a new machine, I sprained my finger and messed up my wrist!

And I have a UFO (sort-of) finished, at least for now. I started it about 3 years ago, and have been collecting the souvenirs for over 10 years. It is a denim quilt that I attached most of my souvenir patches, pins, and even smashed pennies onto. I can't really call it finished, since I intend to keep adding more mementos to it as I go on new excursions in the future! (and, tbh, I'm positive I have another box of goodies hidden away somewhere that I will also add when I find them.)

But, once I take it to the laundromat for a good washing, it will be ready to go in the car for future picnics and camping trips. I posted it separately, but here is a pic:
