Just now hopping aboard but have been doing "the quilty thing" for the past couple of weeks....making 5 quillows. Started out to be two for the tween grandson and greatgrand-daughter. That project expanded to 3 more for the little greatgrands. At the moment, one is complete and folded into a pillow. All of the parts are made (pockets and quilts) but have left to be quilted. I machine cross hatched the first one and it took entirely too long for my liking... and it killed my back and neck. So the rest will be tied. Almost halfway on the first large one and much more to go. I will probably finish on Christmas Eve. Well, that's the plan anyway.
