I have a bunch of finished quilt tops, but hadn't quilted them. Last February, I got the Flynn Multi-frame system (love it) and so I set out to make some quilts. I have been taking a class since January and I graduate on Sunday. We meet 3 times per week, and it's a sort of self-discovery, self-growth, etc type class.

Anyway, so I decided to make everyone a quilt to celebrate our graduation. In September, I started quilting and I put the binding on the last one last night (not even the night before!). There's 1 twin, 1 lap, 2 more or less full, and 1 queen. And hallelujah, they're done!!

I've posted a few pictures as they have been finished (my avatar is 1), and will get the rest of shortly.

I stayed up late to finish the binding last night. I didn't want to go another day. And then this morning, I went back to cutting scraps! So nice to not be pressured (well, still at least 1 Xmas quilt to get done, possibly 3, but nothing due on Sunday :D :D)

Wow! I'm impressed with your stick-to-itive-ness on complete 5 quilts in 2 months. What a trooper you are! Thanks for sharing and I look forward to seeing your other beautiful quilt gifts...I wish I had been in that class so I'd have a new quilt, too. :lol:

Wow! I am in awe of someone that productive. I feel a compulsion to get busy in my sewing room!

Won't happen soon. My dad and his gf were in town and stay with me. She asked to see me quilts. I showed her the 5 finished ones. She asked if I had anything else (please, I'm a quilter, of course I have other things :mrgreen: :mrgreen: ), so we went upstairs, I opened the fabric closet door, and just started pulling out finished quilt tops.... apparently I like making quilt tops more than finishing them. I have over 10 that just need the quilting, or just need a border and quilting.... Though I think I would feel weird if I finished everything and had no quilt tops needing quilting
