Thanks everyone! I am really trying to finish one unfinished project a month! I have a list and love love that I got to check 3 off that list - one for each month so far!
That strip quilt took a Bali pop, which is 40 - 2.5" strips cut the width of the fabric! Then of course you have to add a border or two!

Love that quilt Nancy!!!
I finished up two UFOs that were hanging, well I have binding to do. No, I did not photo them, yes I should, but in a quick rush right now. Just popping in to see how the finishes are going. Yesterday I bought 14 yards of fabric at $5 per yard at the LQS so I was able to get the rest of my UFOs that are hanging up to quilt ready for the machine. I have some customer quilts first but this way I can put one of mine on to practice some new stuff on quilts and not ruin a customers. Or at least rip out stitches messed up. Will be nice to get the done. There are only five of them sitting there still. One I need a back for yet so have to find something else. Well, back to work.

I love this one! So much color and your piecing looks amazing. Was it hard to choose the border fabrics? I often have a hard time with borders for scrappy quilts. Yours are perfect.
