Watson - love the motion in the quilt, and technical difficulties is a perfect name. I remember seeing it in stages and was wondering what it would look like finished.

I’m going to load up my next ufo to get it quilted as soon as the backing comes out of the dryer- it’s a ( rich Purple) and the top has a lot of white in it, so don’t want to take any chances.
i have been working on ( decluttering) my sewing room and have a ( multiple project) a large tote of denim I was supposed to make quilts for some family members after my aunt passed away. I stuffed totes and ignored. I either need to do this or pass on that denim I can’t deal with it being here any longer. So....since I over did things yesterday I’m going to set myself up a cutting station in the living room and spend a few hours ( as long as it takes) cutting it all into squares. I’m going to make ragged quilts. I have plenty of scrap batting, flannel-
i consider that tote of deconstructed denim a huge ufo...it has to go.

what a month for me!!! A year or so back, I closed 2 storage units of fabrics moving them to an empty rental house I own. I've used that house as a sewing cottage before and that was my intention this time also. BFF's son wanted to rent it, so I decided to have a fabric sale. That was May 16th and 17th. I really sold a lot of stuff. On May 20th, my significant other passed away. So been cleaning everything (my home, the storage units and the rental house) out to try to get organized. The rental house is ready for occupancy and I have a lot of UFO's that people were amazingly willing to buy!! Pretty much word of mouth and I had some 1/4 page flyers that I handed out. (I have worked at the LQS for around 10 years so many people knew I had some nice stuff). When I figure a total of UFO's that are out of my life, I will let you know. Now that I live alone, my entire house is my sewing room!!! .

Watson, that is jaw-dropping gorgeous quilt!! I remember seeing it when it was it was in its infancy. Or toddlerhood. If you had a lot of difficulties with it, perhaps it was going through puberty . LOL

Absolutely love the play of light dancing in those watercolors.
