    Default Mission Accomplished!

    At the beginning of the year I had 26 tops waiting for sandwiching and quilting. I promised myself I would not make another top until all the others were quilted. I quilt on my DSM and I don't really enjoy the quilting part. I did give myself permission to piece blocks, just not put them together. As of this morning, I'm down to one top! And I have blocks ready for two more tops. Never again will I let those tops pile up like that!👏👏👏👏

    Wow! I'm impressed! Any chance of you taking some photos of your finished quilts? I'd love to see them! About the number of unfinished tops I have awaiting quilting.....(mumble mumble)

    Well done! I have a couple of quilts waiting to be quilted and although I do enjoy the quilting, my arthritis only lets me do so much at a time.

    I am impressed. I don't enjoy the quilting either and the number of tops I have is so many I'm afraid to count them.

    Very nice! My stack isn't quite that large. I get stuck on the basting - need to baste two this weekend.

    Cheers, K
