I will, but I have a big backlog of unquilted tops. I've recently had to dismantle my Grace frame and store it away, along with my mid-arm machine so my unemployed son could come back home to live.
You mentioned earlier that your book tells how to align the strips/separator bands. I bet we have copies of the same book. Maybe next time, I'll actually follow the instructions (pp 26 & 27) instead of "winging" it. That'll probably work out better.
I hear you about the tops. I decided to mainly focus on the tops while it's summer. Too hot to work under the bulk of a quilt in the FL summer. Plus I have to set up/dismantle for meals, so it's inconvenient most times to stop in the middle of quilting. I gave up my sewing room for FIL once MIL died - so the dining table is my sewing room. Almost got the porch...but moved too slowly. I got it cleaned up and hubby moved some excercise equipment out there. :( Maybe I'll just dump his stuff outside! LOL
