    Default Start to Finish!

    On my Facebook page we do a thing where we post a pic of the fabrics we are starting with and then post a pic of the flimsy and then the finished quilt when we get it done. It's fun to see the transformation. I thought maybe some might want to try it here.

    I'll give an example.
    Here's my start....[ATTACH=CONFIG]564736[/ATTACH]
    And a few months later, I posted in the same thread my finish....
    [ATTACH=CONFIG]564737[/ATTACH]

    So, here's my start for the New Year...[ATTACH=CONFIG]564738[/ATTACH]
    Not sure when I'll get it done, as I'm still dithering over which pattern to go with, but when I do I'll post it in this thread.
    If anyone else is starting a new project and would like to play along, please post your fabrics and we will look forward to your flimsy and finish, down the road!

    That is a great idea! It's always fun to see the original fabric and how it looks in a finished project.

    Great quilt! Sorry I cannot contribute because that would require me to finish one quilt. I work on several projects at once and finish at my leisure.
