02-09-2023I am working on a quilt I started 25+ years ago. I made country curtians to match, that faded and were thrown outmany years ago. I retired 10 months ago and before I start any new projects, my plan is to finish all ufo's. Another ufo, the tinkerbell, I started over a year ago. That one is next.

I finished uploading the pictures of my anniversary thread. I think, so far, this is one of the most important quilts I've made. I learned a ton doing this top just like I did on my first sampler.

Good for you guys to work on finishing up UFOs. I just keep MAKING more UFO's...I'm positive I have attention deficit...can't stand to NOT make a block pattern when I see one I just love. :lol:

I'm working on a heart quilt for a 7th grade student of mine who was just diagnosed with bone cancer. She'll be in the hospital all summer and I wanted to give her a bright quilt for her hospital room.

:lol: Okay, Feathers, I'm glad that I'm not the ONLY one w/this problem! I just started and already have 4 more I want to make but I am trying to FORCE myself to finish SOMETHING! I know that by year's end I'll have a huge stash of UFOs :lol: Originally Posted by Feathers

Maybe if I go back to one that I'm working on I'll get further w/them and not get so bored ... I really SWEAR this is some weird form of ADD or ABD (already bored to death) :lol: :roll:

The second quilt is a butterfly baby quilt for a friend of mine who's baby is now 2 months old. Little late for the shower... Oh well. :)
Oh my gosh! I made the dinosaur quilt for my second son! It turned out so cute and he loves it still, even though he is 13 now.Originally Posted by lady.quilter
I am working on 2 at once. Never done that before so is a new experience for me! I am doing a dinosaur baby quilt with a co-worker of mine for another co-worker who is due in March. It has been great fun to get together to make the blocks.The second quilt is a butterfly baby quilt for a friend of mine who's baby is now 2 months old. Little late for the shower... Oh well. :)

I'm starting a lap quilt from Bail Pop the coffee colors. Been playing with the colors for the blocks. Still thinking about border and backing colors. Has to match my dog. As a cross stitcher I made it a rule to finish the project I was on before starting another, which is motivates to finish, there is always something else out there I want to do. So lap quilt, then a art quilt of glads and other flowers.

I found the pattern online for the basic pincushion but I made hexagons to cover mine.

My mother used to have a pin cushion like this one, but I never knew that thread went in those little holes ... apparently, she didn't either. The things we learn on The Quilting Board.Originally Posted by craftybear
This was the hexagon covered pincushion that I made and covered an old pincushion that I bought at a craft show.I found the pattern online for the basic pincushion but I made hexagons to cover mine.
