That is an interesting family dynamic! I ha...Wow! That is an interesting family dynamic! I have 8 grand kids and 5 of them are adults (25 - 19) and not a single one is married or do they have any kids! I may never see great grand kids! I usually have to finish a quilt before starting something else. That said, I have at least 5 in progress. Three are within completion range and one is just started but shoved into the back of the stash to be passed over for a lot longer. We did Farm Girl as a BOM at the local store. We finished up last spring, but I was busy helping a friend down size and move. That took up 6 months of time and then I was so tired of fabric, kits, patterns and books that I could not get my head back into sewing. I love miniature quilts, so every month of Farm Girl, I made mimi blocks. We had a 12 inch and a two 6 inch blocks every month, so I turned them into 6 and 3 inch blocks. I had to draft paper piecing for the 3 inch blocks! This week I made 8 more blocks and today I am going to lay out both sizes and see how they will for together. THen I have a Jelly Roll Race quilt that my group did in January that I am prepping the back for so My husband can get it on the frame to quilt. Yes, he is my quilter. The 4th started project is a Texas quilt. I have two or three blocks left on that one. I will have to hire the quilting out on this one because id will not fit our frame. As for that 5th one, that is shoved into the depths of my sewing room and mind, it is a watercolor quilt with cats appliqued on it. I really thought I wanted to do it, until I saw how tiny the cats faces and features were! <br /><br />WOW~ I just wrote a complete blog post in your comments.
