I’m my mother’s daughter and possibly have more projects than I’ll ever complete (sorry Mom!). But that doesn’t always keep me from buying more. I only have 1 complete quilt top (also known as a flimsy apparently) ready to go and it’s just waiting on me to get some charity quilts done. A couple of weeks ago I was looking for a piece of fabric I wanted for another project and must have found at least 5 other quilts in various stages of being completed. Well, the top/flimsy being completed that is. One of them was called the flower of the month and I have 2 months completed on it and a 3rd almost done. I’ve also done a wall hanging with one month and it’s about halfway hand quilted. But it’s a very pretty flower series of fabric that came out probably 4 or 5 years ago. This is one of the two months I’ve completed. It’s moved up to the sooner rather than later pile of projects. As well as finishing the wall hanging. I actually have someone in mind to give that to for Christmas so I guess I should get a move on.

I've been working on a mystery quilt with the proceeds from it going to a cancer patient. It's been alot of fun and is almost done. There are 6 clues and we have thru clue 5 received. I haven't sewn the last one together. You sew them into strips. I did lay the current blocks out and compared ways I like them being put together. Although I may wait until clue 6 comes out to actually sew them together to see if there is something in that clue to make a difference. Currently, here are the blocks arranged in a couple of different ways. Here are photos of two of the different options. Anyone have any thoughts on these?
