Lara...I just realized you have 10 (9 if you count the 4P border as just one) borders on your Rudolf quilt. It is so beautifully done that you can't even tell there are that many. So creative.... You can tell, I'm really liking the layout of this quilt.

LarasAussies, congrats on the finish. Love those borders and like Teen, I'll be borrowing the idea.

Battleaxe - awesome piecing, I keep looking at BH's mystery quilts and think that's a lot of work! Yours turned out wonderful. Are you doing this years?
LarasAussies - great finish, and welcome to the group.
Petthefabric - congrats on a finish!
Nothing really new for me, Therese did get her quilt last week she loved it. Right now I'm just sewing some 4 patches for a donation quilt for church. Found a bunch of 5 inch light denim squares that will be the 4 patch, and will do a dark denim as a sashing. That way we only have to tie in the centers of the squares, don't have to fight the seam allowances.

Hi everyone! Long time no talk for me. Hurt back while still in walking boot and on crutches. Getting better though. I have not finished any UFOs, but our local quilt shop is having their yearly challenge, November to April 15, and I turned in 53 projects. No, that was not all, but all I could get into my truck and find easily. I have more and not going to look at them yet. I have officially been put on hold for block swaps they said. Some of my projects are from my excursion with block swaps, boom swap specifically. I have some from 2012 that have not been put into quilts. Guess I best be getting busy on them so I can add to our total here. The owner said if I finish all 53 projects before April 15, she will be sure I get an extra prize for just my hard work. LOL Motivation is the key.

Hi, QM...!!! Oh wow....you've been struggling... I'm so sorry but it sounds like you are healing and raring to go on the UFO's. Good Luck in your LQS challenge! Personally, 53 UFO's is making me nauseous...lol!! You go, girl!

And, finally, another UFO finished.
Giant Scrappy Swoon, started during the Swoon along here on the QB. Started July 2015 and completed November 17, 2018.
I so wanted to finish more of my UFO's. But, that is the last finish for the year for me. I've been sending my bed size quilts out to be quilted by a LA. Now, to save some more money to get them quilted next year.
