Wow! Great quilts! Sometimes I wonder how so many truly amazing quilts become UFOs. What is your "trigger" for putting a unfinished quilt in the back of the closet? Mine is when I reach the point that I can see what it is going to look like, than the excitement is over.

Great question. I don't have a dedicated sewing space. The set up, take down, repeat makes me crazy so I often put things really away and out of site out of frustration. Hand sewing has become my friend as I can steal a few minutes here and there to work on it, without all of the set up.

I have a good friend who is more of a perfectionist than I and once in a while she sends her half-finished, unwanted UFO's to me. So here is one that I only had to add the binding to and now it is done. I think I will donate it to the local Assisted Living Center next winter for a wall hanging.

It's titled Forever Quilted because it took me forever to quilt it! LOL It is a reverse applique and has been 14 years in the making. One of those projects you carry everywhere and maybe do 30 minutes work on it and put it away - well, that's how long it takes of those 30 minutes - 14 years. Anyway, it's finished, totally hand quilted.
