    I have 5 large and 4 small and 1 youth ready to be quilted.
    I have the Grace frame, just finished quilting a baby quilt and would like to quilt a couple more before the end of the month. I am having rotator cuff surgery and after that, no sewing,quilting, etc. for a while.

    That is funny for I seem to have the same problem. If I stayed away from the fabric stores I might get some quilts finished. Working at putting the Grace frame together and then I better stick to finishing what I have before starting yet another.

    Well, I prbably have maybe 20 not finished. Some of them are actually half quilted ,some tops waiting, some not finished, probably because I find I no longer care for them. I have decided that I will make an effort to finish them all when I get out of this travel trailer and in a real house. All of these quilts I have not seen for a year because they have been in storage. Only about 1 month to go before house is finished.
    My biggest problem is deciding how to finish them, and if they are too big to quilt myself, waiting to afford long arm quilter. OK, my greatest prblem is finding another great pattern that I just have to make and getting sidetracked with that.

    2 for me. I need to get some squares and practice FMQ so I'll stop being so afraid of doing it. Otherwise I'll soon have 5!

    Yes, I have many also. I will not count then, I would feel guilty that I have not hand quilted them. However, I have purchased a quilting frame and machine and am waiting for it to come in so I can try it out. Am looking forward to happier days of quilting. Really enjoy all of you ladies. I really have learned a lot. Thank you all very much. Lorene

    Well, I had good intentions of finishing one before starting another. Does that count? :-) Actually I have a couple sandwiched and ready for quilting and probably four or five that are just tops. My goal for this year is to finish them all before I'm allowed to start another, but I don't know if that will happen. I'm weak! :-)
