I always have my most current finished quilt hanging on my dining room wall. Even if it is one I am giving to someone. I love to see them completed. I have quilts on 2 beds. 2 throws in the den for anyone to snuggle under. Two chairs covered with quilts. 2 Wall hangings.
That make 9 that are displayed. Many more on shelves or cabinets.

I keep all my finished quilts in a unused bedroom on the bed. It's great. I layer them one on top of the other and only have to turn back each quilt to see the next one and the quilts are all contained in one spot. I have a large quilt rack on my living room wall that I change out the quilt hanging on it every month or two. I change out the quilt on my bed often and when the kids come to stay a few nights they use the quilts for bedding, usually one goes home with one of the kids every time. LOL

Guess I will have to count mine. Mine are usually gone when I finish them but lately have been trying to save some for just me. Maybe 15 or so, most are wall hangings or lap quilts, the bigger ones seem to find new homes fast.

God Rewards those who create. I have 19 show pieces hanging in my home, 36 finihsed teaching samples in the closet,82 quilts for my Quilters Journey Lecture. My studio has about 15 ready to be quilted for other people, and 7 current projects for myself. I have hand work in every room, quilt magazines and books in every bedroom and bathroom. I built a closed 6' deep x 12' wide shelves for my finished work.

Too many to remember! I have wall hangings for each season. I have quilts stacked in a glass display case and 5 on a quilt display ladder, plus two or three on a quilt rack. I have several I am waiting to display after I show then in a quilt show in June, plus one on my bed, of course! :)
