This Poinsettia wall hanging is a real old UFO. Maybe 15 years old. At the time I had made 4 of these wall hangings. I completed 3 of them and gave them as gifts. I guess I just never had a home for this one. I'm trying to complete a quilt each week, and being a little behind....I quilted this one. I finished the last 2 quilts this past week end and making my goal on target.

My 21st Quilt
This is a small rail fence baby quilt. I finished this top a few years ago. I had made a Princess quilt by Army Bradley for my granddaughter. I used the scraps from that project to make the rail fence quilt top.

My 20th Quilt
This baby quilt is a panel with serveral borders that I finished last week. I'm trying to complete a quilt, and I think I should actually be on my 22nd quilt this week. I have a couple of quilt tops that I made a few years ago. A wall hanging and a baby quilt. I hope to finish those this week end to get back on track.

My 19 the quilt
I saw this quilt on paducah at the quilt show. It's called Rolly. The original had a black scarf, but I thought a red tone would be good. It's 50 x 76 inches.

The 18th quilt
Last week's quilt was finished today. The pattern is called 9 birds. I call my version: 9 Birds Extended. I wanted a larger quilt, so I added another row of 3 more birds.

My 17th quilt
This is a miniature quilt, 23 x24 inches. I had visions of making several of these for gifts. After making the center area, I decided that making tiny quilts was not my thing. I was so traumatized that I put it down a couple years ago. I added the borders and finished it this week. I have a goal of completing a quilt a week this year. I have been out of town for the past 3 weeks. The last 2 UFO s helped me stay on track with my goal.
PS I really admire those who make miniature quilts.

My 16th completed quilt
This is the quilt that I completed last week. I completed the spaceship baby quilt top a couple years ago, but I needed to find the backing. It was just a matter of taking it with me when I shopped. I kept forgetting, and then the quilt was forgotten. Not anymore. The backing is a red tone on tone with a swirly pattern.
