Boy, sounds like all of you gals are really working hard at quilting.
Not exactly quilting, but in the middle of making fabric bowls for DH's
and my children for Christmas. Definitely want to get them done early.
Then want to make a bunch of the fabric bowls for a small bazaar in
December also. Then it is back to the remaining quilts for the grand
children - 5 to go. The three boys' quilts are already put into sections
waiting to be assembled for quilting. The 2 girls' quilts are still in big
16" blocks waiting to be put together in sections and I'm trying to figure
out how I want to assemble them into sections for the design layout.
Then I have a non-descript star type quilt that is laying in sections also
waiting to be assembled and quilted. After those, I have started blocks
in stack and slash of Oriental fabrics - one set of the blocks are stars
and the other set is churn dash style. The backing will be in NASCAR
fabrics - the quilt to be titled Oriental Stars/NASCAR Stars. (I'm sorry
but I'm a NASCAR fan and I love Oriental design.) Also want to make
a quilt for DH that has open wheel race cars on one side and golf on
the other. (We're weird, I know, but we're happy!!!g)

Well? ;-)
What sort of things does everyone have going at the moment in the quilt
family? Dragging out PIGS or finishing up UFOs and WIPS or have new quilts
started appearing?
I'm still working on the queen size LC borders, getting ready to MQ the
siggy quilt, plotting the next borders on DDs quilt, and playing with
layouts for Mike's 'Things go better with Coke" quilt. Sometime in the
middle of those I need to design and make two quilted Christmas stockings.
Lets hear your list!
