How many quilt tops do you have?
#192
OMG, I was telling a co-worker the other day about the tops I need to finish. I have five tops. I like the sewing and creating the quilt tops. I don't look forward to the machine quilting. It maybe because my sewing machine is nict but just a regular sewing machine and having to handle all that fabric at one time seems overwhelming. But I'm starting to tackle one this afternoon. I need to have these finshed to take home to Il next month.

I think I have 8 or 10 tops and two that just need the binding done. Sometimes I am online and remember that I need backings, start to look at them and can't really remember what ones I need backing for, so I don't get them.

I have about six. Unfortunately, I don't machine quilt and even if I did, it wouldn't be a full size quilt. The things so many people do on this website are amazing. I wish I could, but I'm not even gonna try. I always send mine out to be quilted and unfortunately I just can't afford it at this time in my life. It makes me so sad. :(

I have a suggestion to finish some of your tops rent time on a long arm machine at you local Quilting Store or go on line and see if anyone has one they will rent out by the hour. I have a long arm and to help pay it off I am seriously thinking about renting it out by the hour. First I will give them a class and time to practice at a flat rate. Just a suggestion.
