This is #7 to be bound and an UFO that’s about 2 years old. I was not happy with this one after I finished the top but now I’m pleased with it. Again, the quilting texture made all the difference. Pantograph is Chevron. It’s a fairly common block but I based mine on a vintage quilt I found on eBay and used a more modern color scheme for it. I have brief instructions on my website and I’m already thinking about making another version in RWB.

I’m pretty sure that I’m going to miss my goal of keeping my UFO’s to the same number or lower this year. Right now it looks like I’m even and although I’ve got at least 2 more to quilt while I’m home, neither top is mine. I might get one more of mine quilted but one of my “new” starts for the year (my Rainbow HeartStrings blocks) is actually going to end up as 3 quilts AND I tend to get a lot of piecing done in GA so I’m behind and it looks like I’m going to stay behind with us going back and forth. It’s not a huge deal. I don’t really mind UFO’s as long as they are finished tops and I rarely set things aside anymore while they’re still in pieces but at least I should still hit my goal of finishing 12 UFO’s … this one is the 9th UFO finished this year.
