Are You A Topper???
#22
The only tops I have that are not quilted were made by others or put together by me from other people's blocks etc. My favorite part of quilting is collecting the fabric and handquilting. I love cheater's cloth and wholecloth. They allow me to get to the best part with the least amount of effort.

I have to admit that I am a "piecer". Sandwiching quilts is my very least favorite part of quilting. I do complete a lot of quilts but I have a lot of toppers because they take up less space to store so I don't quilt them until I know who or what it is going to be used for.

I loooove quilting. Since I discovered basting spray (thanks to this board... makes sandwiching sooo much easier) and got myself a machine with a bigger throat, I've been flirting with the idea of making a FMQ wholecloth quilt. :)
So, definitely not a topper here. :D

I was a topper for years and have two super sized Rubbermaid bins full which I am now quilting since I only work part time. For years I stitched for a while every evening after my kids were in bed working on tops. Layering and pinning a quilt was just not a job to start late at night, so I just kept on making more tops. I'd quilt up two or three every summmer but the pile of tops grew faster than the finished pile. Now that I am home more my goal is to quilt one of these tops every month. This month I've managed to do three.
