Those bordered jelly roll quilts look great.

My apologies...I've been distracted by some family stuff and I am finishing up a swap. I'll be checking back in by the weekend.

Motorcyclemad, FOUR quilts? My gosh! Are they completed? I'm guessing yes bc you posted them but they don't yet look quilted in the pix. Just say the word and I'll add them to the tally. Thank you!

Well, we're quiet this month. Who is working on a UFO? I have a couple on hold since my quilting mojo isn't strong right now. Too much happening outside quilting life. I even pulled out a mini, just a bunch of hsts and a border yet I can't make myself finish it. Help!

What's your story?
Quote: I have 4 done--Yaayyyy! The first three are the "Mile-a-Minute" strip quilts. I miss counted the number of strips and they were not wide enough (about 36" each), so they were on hold until they got borders. The fourth is a Jelly Roll kit I got from "Scrap Angel".

The first pic is one of the strip quilts sans borders, then the 3 with borders. The final pictures are of the jelly roll quilt with pieced borders.

Hang in their Janice, it will come back. It always does. When life gets busy, it messes with the creative.

Here is a finish for March, my hexi table runner that was started two to three years ago. I love the fabric. Not perfect, but still enjoyable this time of year waiting for winter to get over. [ATTACH=CONFIG]569945[/ATTACH]

I should dig out some almost finished smaller ones and get them bound while watching NCCA March Madness!

I've got one UFO sandwiched and ready to quilt, then I've got to heat it until the top layer laces (it's an art quilt and the top layer is Lutradur which melts into a lacey effect when heated). I'm hoping it will lace around all the decorative stitches and the quilting stitches. If it does, then I'll have a finish this weekend. If it doesn't then I'll have to do something else to it.

Nice topper QM.

Rob, that sounds intriguing.

Great idea oksewglad. I have one of my minis in my lap hoop ready for quilting during the games. Watched two of my teams sail through the first round yesterday and waiting for two more teams to play today!

These have been languishing in pieces for almost 2 years. They are for emergency gifts and done for now. The pieced border jelly roll lacks only binding and will be done this week, so definitely increase our numbers!

I started the year out with 2 UFO's and still have them. Lol! I did work on one of them but just can't get myself to sandwich and finish it. Maybe I will get it done over spring break in April.

I have been sewing but I need to get busy with the last step of Bonnie Hunter's mystery and get that top finished because I don't want it to go into the UFO pile.
