    That's "all" for 2017??? Oh, my gosh, you've done gazillion this year, Jaba. Congratulations and Toot, Toot for these 4 final UFOs for 2017. (You have to know I love the Boom quilt )

    I did manage to get these done for your count Janice. Small table runner, another baby quilt that was a Boomerang block exchange, and a king quilt that was a block trade on the QB about 3 years ago and I used a falling block quilt that I made a couple of years ago for the back. That's all for 2017[ATTACH=CONFIG]586379[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]586380[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]586381[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]586382[/ATTACH]

    I love both of your quilts, Krista! I'm especially partial to cardinals. In 2005 we were moving into a house and the movers left the front door open as they went in and out. A beautiful male cardinal flew in and found his way to an upstair bedroom, where he was a little bit panicked, but when I opened a window and stood back, he found his way out easily. I thought that was pretty smart and also daring. He was just checking out some new territory, or maybe he had seen his reflection in the windows from outside and went in looking for that bird. I'm smiling because your quilt reminded me of that.

    Jaba, your quilts are great! I love seeing all the variety. I'm amazed you got all that done running up to a move.

    Excellent Job everyone!

    Thank you for the kind comments. It's been my complete pleasure to be your Engineer - or is it Conductor? - on this 2 year great train adventure. Thank you to everyone who participated in 2017! May 2018 be even more productive! Congratulations.

    Belfrybat, I love the look of your snowball quilt.

    Krista, those are stunning quilts. I'm in love with the cardinals.

    Congratulations, jaba, on your 4 finishes!

    Thank you, Janice, for being such a great leader these past 2 years. And thank you, happylab, for stepping up to lead us. I plan to join the new thread, and hopefully I can make some contributions in the coming year.

    I haven't done this challenge so please "clue me in" with what and how to do it. I have been binding blocks for gifts, and just in general finishing UFO's.
    So, how do I get started? Sorry I am s o dense on this.
