Of course, being a quilter, I had to buy it because it was a bargain. Now thanks to all of you, I know what to do with them. AND....my table is 72 inches long. Making a longer table runner will sure be lovely on that table. Now, when can I get several of my 35 UFO's finished so I can start a new project? I have imposed on myself that unless it is for Guild or a VERY special project, I can't start a new project until I clear off 3 of the UFO's. I am really glad I only have 35. My goal is to get 6 of the UFO's completed in 2014. More would be better, but I am a realist. lol
After going to the Houston quilt show and several in Oregon, Washington, Texas, & Arizona, I have so many kits that I don't think I will ever get them done. So many quilting projects, not enough time in my lifetime. Thank goodness, I have a daughter and a granddaughter that are searching through my gi-normous stash every time they come to see what they think they can use. Kits that I am no longer interested in are being passed down every time they come. Isn't it crazy how our tastes in fabrics and patterns change as we progress as quilters?
