    The post is still there, #4. Thanks for the link, Copycat. I remember seeing that patterns and likely printed the speedy baby quilt years ago. I think I have it in a binder stored away for "someday". I will go a searching because "someday" is here. Thanks for the reminder!

    I'm working on a "Spring Spin" from McCall's April/May 2016. I usually don't do the same quilt twice but I want to use up a piece of fabric for the backing and I had enough of the colors in scraps to piece the 42 pinwheels for the front and I know this is easy to longarm. Now I remember why I didn't use the backing fabric the first time around: I'm having to piece the backing to make it wide enough. Ah, the joys of working with what you have!!!

    Ill try to join! Over last month's VQW I made a baby quilt top and all that was left to do was quilt and bind. the next weekend, my dad got sick and i have been in the hospital then long term care facility since then. No quilting has happened and the baby shower is tomorrow. Sooooo...I bought some baby clothes for a shower gift, and the quilt will get done soon I hope, at least before the baby comes. My friend understands of course. Maybe I can quilt and bind on sunday. Looking forward to hearing about other people's projects.

    Finished last month's VQW just yesterday (Salsa Table Set)! Will start cutting today or tomorrow for my first full-size quilt (Vintage Checkerboard by Kristina Brinkerhoff from "Best of Moda Bake Shop").

    Hi all,
    I'll be joining in, but will mainly be straightening up my quilting studio- it's a mess. I've currently got the pieces and parts for 8 different projects pulled out and I need to decide on a single one to finish and put the rest away where they won't distract me. LOL

    I am working on a military quilt for my husband. He was in the Navy aboard the USS Intrepid and I found this fabric with a panel of Aircraft stuff. This Aircraft Carrier is on display in New York and we got to go see it and tour it. My husband was treated like royalty as a past sailor on that ship. If ever in New York, be sure to go see it.

    Good afternoon everyone.

    My goals this weekend: Bind a king size quilt; rearrange my sewing room some more, where I can find my scrappy white fabric container. I need to finish the twin size traffic jam top (ufo), so it can go on my quilting list; Find my boxed up (ufo) - double Irish stars project and start working on it. Unsure if I will make it king size or twin size. My thought 2-3 years ago to enlarge to king size; cut out 1-2 dragon 🐉 kits, so I can start sewing. Quilt 2-3 baby tops for my friend; finally decide what BOM to start next week. I started collecting last year and have 1-2 that I can sew up the top in a month. Future quilts for family members. I figured what doesn’t get completed this weekend will be February projects to complete.

    Enjoy sewing/quilting everyone. Chat with you later.

    I got this lap quilt done. It is from leftovers from 2 previous quilts. I think I need to get Mom’s taxes done before I decide on next project.
