So impressed and inspired by your accomplishments!! Way to go!
|
Congratulations on a huge accomplishment. I admire your resolve. When you finish them all you will have to do a "bed turning" (I think that's what it is called). Your color choices look similar to mine and my wife's. I'm looking forward to seeing all your finishes. Do you have plans for all of them?
|
That is an amazing accomplishment Jo! I can see that your quilt inspector thinks so too. They all look beautiful!
|
Good for you! I have a bunch of UFOs that I need to finish. I was working on them, but then life interferred. I hope to finish most of them this year, since I am trying to finish them as part of my two guilds' UFO challenges.
|
Impressive. That took real discipline!
|
What an accomplishment! Just curious, do you have plans for where all these quilts will be destined?

I would love to have that many quilts finished in my house. Good job.

Time for a happy dance.

I am in awe that you have that many tops to begin with and then to sandwich them all & quilt them too (I'm assuming one after another) I'm a beginner so it's all one quilt from start to finish before I'l start another. Although I do keep the finished quilt until it's birthday time. I have 6 kids & 9 (so far) grandbabies to make quilts for, so far I have 1 of the kids quilts done & starting on the next kid in line, but ran out of back ground fabric :(, hoping it will be here when we return from vacation. I just got a Janome 6600 so I'll be doing my 1st quilting on it. The 1st quilt I done was QAYG, didn't care for that though too much work. Hoping with my bigger machine I can do it faster & easier. BTW beautiful quilts & I too want to see more pictures.

That is terrific. What I make myself do is finish TWO ufos before I can start another quilt and you can't start any other until TWO more are finished.. it is a little slower but easier for me to accomplish my goal.

Love that blue/green/and cheddar one. I now feel ever so much better about my UFOs. I think I only have about 5. I am afraid to look, as they haunt me after I close the closet door.
|
Good for you..A lesson for all of us...Happy quilting..
|
Great job. I need to get motivated as I also have a lot put aside while my dh was ill and now since passed on. Just have not gotten to the point that I want to do them.

That is amazing!!!
|
know what ur saying, I'm trying to get to my heep
|
I enjoy all of the quilt making parts, and love quilting on my 9" machines. I finish one before starting another.
|
I know you're proud of all your hard work!! Congrats!
|
Wow pretty, pretty!
|
Kudos to you! Impressive progress!!
|
Impressive!! Great for you!

I had the same resolve at the beginning of the year, although not as many as you. I am blessed to have an HQ16 for the quilting process. I really don't mind the quilting,but getting the back on the leaders and deciding how to quilt it is the part I dread. I drool over the quilting on so many of the quilts posted on this board. My back log is down to 4. I always say, "it's not a quilt until it's quilted." The feeling of accomplishment when it's done is a wonderful feeling. Congratulations on sticking to the goal you set out to do. The quilts you posted are awesome. I hope we get to see more.

I too am impressed that you got so much done in 6 months. My heart is yearning to try some new patterns, but like you I have tops to quilt. I have finished 3 since June an have one the needs a wee bit of unstitching and requiliting and then the binding. But I have 7 more to go that I have discovered. But every time I dig into my sewing area, I find one more. Saving grace is I know of a new baby arriving in September that needs a quilt. So..... I guess I will just have to make a new quilt, right?
Congratulations on your accomplishment! You are the Winner! |
Beautiful quilts, congratulations!
