I managed to finish quilting another of Ben’s quilt tops today. I guess they count as my ufos because I have a stack of 8-10 of them he made during the shut down that are waiting for me to quilt. It is nice to get each one done and onto the next. The next one I have to create a back for. I decided the wide back I thought I would use is just too bright- so a pieced one will be the way to go. I hope to get that done and the quilt loaded- possibly started tomorrow. Progress has been slow for me but I keep ( trudging along)
here’s the one I finished today ( teal/ purple/ black
the second photo is the one that is next

Welcome back, Conchalea! Family time is important and so is the mowing. Please send some of that rain to me. 🙂. It seems like it rains north and south of us. 🤷♀️

I finally have a few pictures of one of my May finishes. The Big-Boy-Quilt with the embroidered hot rod cars.
Not certain why they are sideways?

I also made sure that I actually took pictures of my July finishes-2 flimsies and 1 Quillow. The two flimsies also count for the Moratorium challenge because they are all from stash material and have been cut and pre-positioned for over two years and the quillow for over a year.
The first flimsie is all child prints and lap quilt size.
The second is a miscellaneous assortment of scrap blocks I have had that were left over from other quilt tops over the years. I did the-toss it in a bag and sew it as it comes out attempt. Surprisingly enough, no prints are sitting right next to itself.
The last three pics are of the quillow for a coworkers daughter. He left our organization and came back. Before leaving he married a nice woman with 3 kids. For the wedding gifts, they got afghans and the kids all got quillows so they would not be left out. They also had a baby before he left. I finished the top before but did not finish it. We have the front, back and it folded.
