I started collecting solids in the 80's for an Amish looking Ocean Waves quilt. I'm pretty sure I started it in 1990. Then life got a little crazy with teenagers and a divorce. I finally finished it about 5 years ago. Or so I thought. Then a couple of years ago I found basting in part of the border! A couple of hours later, it was finally complete. But not a new quilt by any means at that point!
