Rob, at first glance I thought it was a crazy quilt (my favorite!) I really think the wonkiness made it more interesting.

Like that one Rob. I am working on one now to get rid of my scraps. With the amount of scraps I have, could take me five of them to do. Great job.

I am done with a ufo, but have no picture yet. It is a scrap quilt that, like Rob, has been sitting around for mumble mumble years. Will post hopefully tonight.

Here is my mess of next UFO to be done. Apparently it had become two because at one point I went to an embroidery get together and started another one because I could not find my fabric with the one I did start. So now two UFOs. They are going to get done now. That is final. I have quilting already set up for it. Just the pain of getting them embroidered appliqued. Oh the joy.
Looks promising. Love your set up!

Love it! Did you foundation piece it? What pattern did you use? Great quilting too!

LOL Kind of scary! How did you ever get him into it and how did you get his permission to take a picture, let alone post it? Hahahaha

Janice, count a finish for me as I will have the final stitches put in as I watch my Sunday night shows. The HST are from a guild swap several years ago. Setting blocks, borders, backing, and binding all from stash. I panicked when sewing the last border. I figured I had just enough fabric and proceeded to sew it on. I used diagonal seams when joining the lengths and it took more than I needed, and not enough fabric to finish. Why not the broken dishes cornerstones? This was a practice FMQ experience sewn on my DSM...

Here is my leaf ufo. I gave it to my wonderful neighbors.
That came out great quiltermomma. I see some of my blocks. Mine also went to friends. It is the perfect time of year for gifting a Fall leaf quilt. I bet they love it. Awesome quilting too!

I used those triangle papers that Missouri Star quilts was selling several years ago for their wacky web quilts, but didn't follow the directions correctly so none of the points ended up being pointed. That's why the squares sat for so long, I discovered my error after I'd put the triangles together at which point I was not going to go back and fix them LOL.

No pattern other than pulling scraps out of the shoe box that I use for scraps that are too small for anything other than string or crumb quilting and stitching them to the triangle papers. Thanks.
