I think I have 17 tops completed, since last April. I've started many more but lost interest or have gotten distracted. Now that I think of it, that's a lot of quilts, considering I have two jobs and a house to take care of!

My latest one isn't counted in there because it's not quite finished. I'm going to put some more borders on it before I count it as a finished top.

I started quilting in 1975 but didn't really began making it a hobby until around 1988. I have pictures of every quilt I've made. I've given away a lot but think I have made about 70 or so. :roll:

Wow! There are some with a lot of quilts made. I have been quilting for about 8 years and have made about 40. I would love to quilt more but there seems to be so many time constraints.... :D

Wow! that is a lot of quilts. I know you make Art Quilts. What is the difference between the Art Quilt and Traditional Quilt?

Dear ghostrider,
What you said is all so true. Each quilt bring a little bit closer to perfection but always pure happiness in completing one.
As for how many, I have no idea but I do know I've let a lot people know how I feel about them with those I've given away. And for the ones I've sold, many of my customers have brought me a picture to enjoy the happiness it brought to another. :D

I was amazed when I put my quilt scrapbook together; I've made 90 quilts in almost 20 years!

I have made well over 850 Quilts. Started in the 60's. Made for church Auctions, friends, children. And at one time had a small shop on my front porch where I would put one in the window and have maybe 8-9 others. Lived on main highway so selling them was easy.
I love Quilting - It is my pleasure in each day. It is my JOY to feel the accomplishments... I do all my own quilting. either by hand or machine.
Have more fabric then some quilt shops. lol :lol: :Some sold cheap, most I gave away. I will tell you, you get better all the time. So keep going girls. I have a picture of each one in my album...

Two.

Both throw-sized (48" x 48"), and both given as wedding gifts this summer.

I'm currently working on about 5 more, everything from wall-hanging size to queen bed size.
