Sandy and Almond.....congrats on the finishes.
Yesterday, I sandwiched another quilt top/batting/backing and I plan to start quilting it tomorrow.
Finishing this quilt will be my February goal.
I would start the quilting today but the dust bunnies are laughing so loudly that I can't ignore them anymore.

Ok... I got my first one for January finished a few days early. Had all these extra blocks sitting around and wanted to practice the 10 minute block. I just machine quilted it and used some leftover flannel for back and binding. I used one of my kids (read 37 years ago) old baby blankets (freshly washed) for the batting. Now I just need to find a litle baby or small one to give it to.I won't do the one a month thing either but every UFO I finish is one more useful thing instead of a bunch of fabric. :-)

Love the bright colors like a real kalediscope! Another one of those "How can this be a UFO?" quilts. Just finished some school fund raiser small quilts so can hit the UFO pile again.

Oh Wow!!! Love that kalidescop quilt. Awesome job!!!!
I have a good report. Here are some photos of projects finished. A couple you can say I see why it waited, but love the end result of the lap quilt because the quilting made the quilt. Thank goodness I have a larger machine now to do the quilting better. Also a photo of an UFO that is on the longarm now. you can see why is going to be a challenge and why left on back burner for so long.

A few more could not get on first post. Finished these up during this week, except the one that is on longarm now. Will be a chore to quilt, but should make it look awesome when done. Hopefully will get to post soon that is done in February. The binding may be my only issue in getting done, curved edges.

I like the quilting on the first one ....the yellow and 9-patch. The quilt has an old-fashioned charm. I would love to own it.
