I just start them when I get home from work at 4 and then stop around 8 or so. I find it's really relaxing of all things! :)

And I'm giving quilts away from Christmas, so I am starting on them now, and hopefully will have them done by then.

However I am doing EASY quilts, so it's not like I'm turning out quilts like the one below. Which was given as a wedding present. Made by an amish woman in Kalona, Iowa...and it's sad I had to take the old raggedy quilt off the top of my bed to take this picture....the dog like to sleep up there and I don't want him damaging it. :)

Ps. Don't mind my hairless cat - Chicken Little in the picture, he was UNDER the other blanket when I took it off to snap the picture. :)

Where do you have the time to do all these quilts?? I think you've shown more quilts in the last few weeks than I have total on this board!
