Opps I guess ones that are waiting to be quilted count too so I have 6-8 more. Don't ahve the money for quilting, backing and batting. So they are still sitting folded up waiting for the $$$.
But they are done in my books.

edited with new info:
My grandmother tells me that Native Americans are wrapped in a quilt when they are buried, even when a casket is used. This quilt is made by the mother and/or wife or oldest daughter/DIL of the deceased.
Google tells me these can be draped over the casket instead of a spray, or under the spray AND can also refer to a quilt used as lining of the casket. Sometimes this lining is made in parts - the lining, which stays in the casket, and a matching piece for the inset, which is removed and given to the family.
I've lernt somethin today :)

I just finished the binding on one, have one I am currently binding one, have 3 tops completed, one to put the border on and one I have to finish piecing ( now that I have the pictures the she wants in it). That doesn't count the ideas I have currently being worked on in my head.

I have 5 NICU quilt tops done, waiting for the batting, quilting, binding; two lap quilt tops done (lavenders) same stage of waiting....still working on my own Oriental bedspread; blocks all swapped and set aside for my gazebo quilt....yes, a few in waiting.

I probably have at least 8 going, but that doesn't count the "long term" quilts I have been "working on" for 8 or 9 years. Then you have to add the ones in my brain, and I think I have to live to be 500 to get them all done. Of course that is considering I stay out of fabric stores!Too many quilts to do, never enough time.
