Wow! I had more than I thought!

So I made a list when I signed up and then I started taking pics... and pics... and pics: I am at over 20 WIPS right now! I have a serious problem! And I thought I did so good this year finishing things-really I did! But I started some, too.

So I don't know how we are supposed to pick, but I committed to 6. I will try and see if I can blow myself out of the water here... but if I get the 6 done, that's still an improvement.
Not sure if we can include bags? This one is from Amy Butler's new book "Style Stitches". It needs handles... which are kinda complicated.

Started this one last week. We can use it NEXT Christmas...

This is a funny quilt- you'll see when it's done. It's made with 100% vintage sheets.

This one is available for free on the Piece O' Cake website I think- I have it cut out of a magazine. It is going to be a swap with an artist friend who is going to paint some artwork on my dining room table for me. Since it's freezing cold here we probably won't do the table till next spring.

:

A Baltimore Album from Fat Cat Patterns here. This is for my mom. I have 3 blocks cut out and ironed on and have a LOT left to do on this one.

This is a baby top that just needs to be quilted. It's a funny little squirrel that I got in a bag of stuff from a thrift store.

My pink black and white from a challenge. I have been hand quilting this one and embellishing it as I quilt. Each square will have something sparkly or shiny on it.

 A purse that I am halfway through. For my MIL

These are to make a quilt and bed skirt for my bed. Has to be king sized! Eek.

Redwork squares for my bed quilt. I have 5 done, one in progress and one not started.

This is a few lines from Shakespeare that I have ironed on to a white background and have to stitch around and then figure out what to put around the edge. I put the tape on for scale.

A king size made with Swell and a vintage fabric for my bed. Even bigger than king size. All that is left is the quilting and binding, but I am not sure how to go about it. Will probably rent time on a long arm.

3 quilt tops to quilt.

I have to rip out the BAD quilting and fix this one. It will be a couch throw.

A top to quilt.

vintage fabric to turn into a OBW

This just needs binding. All vintage sheets in this one.

My favorite as of right now! Wild Wagon Wheels. I have all the wheels made and just have to attach them to the blocks and then can piece and quilt it.
I know I have more, but this is a good list to start with. :0)

Oh, thank you! I'm not the ONLY one!

I also have a list of stuff I "owe" people. I don't even want to write that one down...

I quit taking pics when I got to 8 especially since I said I would do 3 and try for 6!! But I know I have at least 20 as well..........they will all be done in 2011, that is my story and I am sticking to it!

Quiet Quilter said...

Won't even Mention how many I have....you are so brave to stand up and show them all! Like your wagon wheel also...the squirrel is cute too...

Shay said...

That's quite a list Lisa. (and some very beautiful projects waiting for their time to shine too)

You can do 6 standing on your head.

Myra said...

Wow! You've got your work cut out for you there Lisa!!! Some wonderful projects here, and purses count!!! PhD - "Projects" Half Done... 8-)
Happy stitchings to you in 2011!

Glad to know I'm not the only one with a list of "in stock" PHd's that goes beyond what can be committed to in a six month period!

And thanks for reminding me about the "Baltimore Bliss" BOM (the Fat Cat Design). I started hand appliqueing this year and might have to get that onto the "Haven't Started Yet" list. But that's for another challenge......

Great projects. The star is gorgeous and I really like Turtle Bay. I'm down to just 5 UFO's, but I've been working really hard to get them done for over a year now. They will get done, just hang in there!

A good list to start with? You are going to be busy but I love the ambition. I always wish I could do more but somehow get sidetracked.
