When I was cleaning and organizing in my sewing room last week I decided to count how many projects I had started. I quit when I got to 25. While I would love to get them all done tomorrow, I think one a month is a more realistic goal.
#1 is a double 4-patch started many years ago, I finished the top but it still needs quilting and binding.
#2 is triangles that I cut last week before counting all that I had waiting.
#3 is a wonky 9-patch kid’s quilt that was started about 1 ½ years ago and left to sit. It just needs the center seam and quilting.
#4 is a shoebox full of random ½ square triangles. These are mostly ugly fabric and not all cotton that someone gave me many, many years ago.
#5 is a wedding quilt for my nephew who is getting married in May.
#6 is a wedding quilt for my daughter who is getting married on October 1 and I have no idea what I am going to make.
I have many others I need to finish but this will make a good start to my year.
Happy Quilting!

I love the wonkiness!
And shoeboxes tend to hold what turns out to be fabulous quilts!
What fun to work with your stash!
you know what I love about "ugly" fabrics? When you get them all together (and in small enough pieces) they turn into these amazingly stunnign quilts!
Welcome to the Club!!! I love the wonky 9 patch!! I have one out of Christmas fabrics that will go on my t0-do list once I get the ones I've got on it now DONE!! and you will love working on these now that you know how many (like me!) you've started!!
