    I finished eight but have a number of tops that need to be quilted. Sigh.

    Holey Moley that's a lot of quilts :shock: . I've been quilting a little over 2yrs and completed 7 and have 3 more in various stages of completion so in 1yr I'd have to say...not many :?

    If you count wall pieces and small quilts, probably around 20. Large quilts/throw quilts around 6-8

    last year has been slow, mostly making tops. Since DH and I started quilting we have kept an inventory with a number assigned to each top, quilt, or someone elses quilt I worked on (handquilted or repaired). Over the last 32 years we are now up to 1262. This is not counting my mini-string quilts or doll quilts. They are all on an Exel spreadsheet.
