How many quilts on your 'to do' list?
#74
Well as a pattern designer I have many quilt patterns to make. I design more than I make. I am a fabric collector. But I also collect patterns. I have all types of quilt patterns. I have a lot of magazines as well that I am planning to weed out. So Yes I have many to do quilts. Some will get done others won't and they will change over the years. I do what I Love!

I have a huge pile of unfinished projects...I feel like I have sewing ADD. I will start one and then when I reach a roadblock I put it aside and start another and the process keeps repeating... So now I have a huge pile of unfinished projects and a whole bunch of new ones I want to start. I'm really trying to make myself go back to older unfinished ones before starting new projects, but the thrill of starting a new quilt is hard to say No to lol. I am currently working on the Sylvia's Bridal Sampler Block of the Week challenge so I at least make some progress on ONE quilt steadily!

Right now I have eight quilts lined up to make. They are in $4 plastic boxes with handles that lock(Walmart), each in different stages of material collectioning being put together. I also keep the pattern in the box too. When all the materials are collected, the quilt gets made and in between with left over material from the previous quilt, I cut strips, squares and etc for future scrappy quilts. I keep these in plastic zip bags. I just finished sewing 25blocks of 11 inch squares for a string quilt, all left over from scraps. Part of the reason for the left over scraps is because I alway buy a little more than what is needed for a quilt, it is better to have too much than too little. Lesson learned here.

:thumbup: I have so many quilts started that it isn't funny :mrgreen: It is like I get board just sewing one so I have several going all the time. I get them to where they just need boarders and just stop. I have a mind block on sewing the boards which are the easy part I think. When I get them done I hang them and cover them with plastic until I decide who should get them. If I had to write a list of how many I have started YIKES I would have a never ending list. Not good but fun lololol :lol:
