Being pretty much a newbie, I can recite every quilt I've made thus far. I've made a baby quilt for my great niece back in 2002, a queen size whole cloth quilt hand embroidered as a wedding gift for one of my nephews, and a log cabin quilt I made for the son of a very dear friend of mine (a veteran who was seriously injured in Afghanistan), a baby quilt made with purchased embroidered appliques scattered all over it (hand quilted). I currently have four tops, one of which is for me. one is for my son, and two of them go to my two sisters. I now have everything in materials to complete them, so I just need to get busy and finish them. That's a lot easier said than done -- I have serious spinal issues, so I have to work a little while, rest, then try to work some more. The top I made for myself, is a monstrously large -- made as a spread for my queen-size bed, measures about 120 X 130". It's going to be a real bear to quilt that one, but it is mine. I also made a couple of baby boy appliqued quilts for two of my former boss's daughters last summer/fall, and in January completed a Sunbonnet Sue Quilt for the granddaughter of some friends. That's it! Oh, there've been a few table runners, and a lot of hand-stitched folded star potholders given to my sisters.
