TOPS!

 
 
How does this happen?  Well...actually, I do know how it happens! Oh, it's so much fun starting a new quilt, isn't it!!! The ideas come faster than I can get things finished!  As I'm working on one quilt, I'm busy thinking about the next one.  Can anyone relate? I remember several years ago when I belonged to my local quilt guild, a lady there mentioned she had about 200 quilt tops. I'm sure my jaw dropped to the ground and I had to stifle a gasp. Now, I know I don't have anywhere NEAR 200 quilt tops, but I am beginning to amass a nice little pile! I actually have backs for most of these so I don't really have any excuses for not finishing them.  The next two weeks are going to be devoted to getting this pile done (as soon as I finish a few more tops)! Just kidding!

I'M BACK...WITH A FINISH, TOO!!!

I didn't realize how long it's been since my last post!  Anyway, I'm back...with a finished quilt which feels great!  I had bought a little bundle of Chum Chum Bear ages a while ago and made a sweet little hourglass quilt which I sold last year at a craft fair.  I've been hanging onto the rest of it until I decided what to do with it.  Here's what I ended up with....
 
 
I started this with no real plan but I love how it turned out!  I used up pretty much most of my fabric and I was sad to see it go.  This might be headed to my shop...if I can bear to part with it!
Linking up with Amanda Jean for Finish It Up Friday!
Have a great weekend!
