I started quilting about 4 1/2 to 5 years ago. I made a beautiful, king size quilt called Stars, Crosses, and Crowns and some of the blocks had 70+ pieces to them. It took me 2 years to make. Since then, I have made 3 charity quilts about 54 x 54 each. I have made 3 wall hangings or art quilts. I have lots of WIPs and UFOs but could never do 50 in a year or probably 5 years. First of all, I wouldn't be able to afford to do them nor have that much energy to do them. I get tired after a couple of hours of sewing. Also, have lots of outside activities, and groups I attend. I admire anyone who can make that many quilts and wish I could do that but know it's not possible for me. I sort of work slowly and have had a problem with perfectionism in the past and try very hard to be that way now but find it sort of creeps in when I'm not paying attention! I love quilting and appreciate other's work... enjoy the journey, adventure along the way...
