I have just joined, this is my first post. I am so glad to know many of you have unfinished quilt tops. Now I may not have to hide them from my husband because I can tell him "oh everyone has lots of unfinished quilt tops."

What a loaded question!!! Let's see :roll: At least 4 tops ready to go to next step, and then maybe 100 blocks finished but not together with their fellow blocks. Then there are the single blocks that were experiments that are too nice to do nothing with but I don't want to make another like :lol:

I am ashamed to say over 50. Not all are bed sized though. also a PC Quilter that I have never set up. I have tried this Free Motion stuff and it's not for me. Long Armers are expensive. Guess I could pay for quilting and stop buying fabrics, etc. Maybe that is why I like Minatures.

I have 2 that are sandwiched ready to be quilted and 6 other quilt tops that need to be sandwiched. I am constantly working on new quilt tops. I need to get these other done.

Course I always have zillions of ideas and graph out quilts while finishing one.

I did not get this particular "quilt gene." I know the number is more than 60, but I don't know how much more. I took inventory once upon a time, but I have started some more tops since that inventory.

How many quilt tops do you have that are waitin for the day you find enough energy to make them into actual quilts? :-D

I have only 2 - almost 3. The 2 are quilted, I'm just waiting for cold weather and then will put the binding on to complete those. The third one I'm just putting the top together.
