I have a very small area to sew in the bedroom, but no dedicated space to quilt. When I quilt, I have to rearrange things on the porch. I'm just not up to that and handling the weight of any quilts. Good thing none have a deadline! I'm disappointed because quilting is my mental escape from a stressful job...and it's been very stressful lately, so I need lots of "therapy" LOL.
Here's a picture of the top I finished.

Love your quilt. I started a D9P and was not liking how it looks then saw yours with the striping. I love it. Going to try that. Mine is scrappy. Working down the bag of six inch squares I brought home a year ago. This is about the sixth quilt from the bag and I have several left--of course adding stripping and binding from my stash.
