Count me in, I have 4 lap quilts, 2 baby quilts, several quilted coaster projects started, 3 quilted purses and lots of ideas in my head!

I am also doing 2 different Buck a Blocks and 2 Block of the Months from 3 different quilt stores this year. AM I crazy or what.

What do we need to do to get thrown into quilt jail with all our stash and machine!

I guess it's time for me to get into this as well. A few years ago... I made a New Year's Resolution.. .that I could NOT start a new project until I finished a UFO... I got a lot accomplished that year. I'm sure this will spur me on as well.. however my main UFO takes one month just to complete one side of a border (all hand needle-turned applique).... getting one a month done would be my UFO for Jan and Feb... then March to put the whole thing together... is that fair? :mrgreen:

Sounds fair to me! I know some of my UFOs take longer than others and I just have to take them one step at a time.

The center blocks (16) are all finished. They are all out of batik and are pinwheels... surrounded by flying geese set into a square. 2 1/2 borders are done... I'm in the home stretch compared to what I've already completed. Here are three examples of the 16 blocks.

I think that sounds just fine to me. You have set your goal, realize the work involved and have a plan. Sounds like a sound call. Looking forward to seeing your pics. Can we see a sneak preview? What fun this is. Oh - just forwarded to the rest of the messages and saw your pics. Outstanding. They are gorgeous. Beautiful work. Love your blocks.

I am so loving this challenge. Just about done, too tired during the week to finish off the binding, but come Saturday it will be done and then pictures out here. Love seeing whatever one is completing and that I am not the only one who is nuts, LOL
