Default Too Many Ideas!!!

So I started quilting in August and have made 6 quilts so far and I already have another 7 quilts planned. I keep saying I'm going to stop looking at pictures so that I don't design more quilts because I already have so many left but it is just too tempting!!!

Welcome to the world of quilting! We all have too many ideas! They never stop coming, we just learn that we most likely won't be able to do them ALL.

Have fun!

Just sit back and enjoy the ride. I finished one tonight and started another. I've got more UFOs than I can count and proud of it!

If I could quilt as fast as I can dream them up my house would be overflowing with finished quilts instead of stacks and stacks of fabric and quilting ideas.

I know what you mean! And it seems like there is always an occasion to give a quilt away, or someone special that could use one. I thought that I was getting caught up and getting my UFOs done...then 3 couples got engaged and I'm behind before I ever began!

I have made 501 quilts since 2000 and have about 4000 in my computer. You do the math.

Ain't that the truth! I have two on my design wall, one in a box so it stays together, and I'm heading to Walmart to get extra material to finish one of the quilts. Oh yeah, I just got my pattern in for another quilt, Eldon quilt, looked hard, but after looking at the pattern it is only log cabin blocks and stars. Syl

I think of it as my personal bid for immortality: I have more quilts to do.
