2 for 1 - Update

Well back in January I declared that I would finish 2 UFOs for every 1 NEW project that I started.  Actually I've done better than that because I've been on a real 'finish'um up' kick!  Part of this was motivated by my local Guild's Faire at the end of Feb.  So here's what I finished for the show:
A small landscape that I started in a class in 1996!
The center of this quilt was begun in 2003!
This quilt was begun in 1997!
So you see with the 2 other quilts I finished in January That makes 5 finishes so theoretically I could start 2.5 new projects!  I confess I started one the other day but I'm thinking about making it a Mystery so I can't show you a picture.  
I will blog about some details on these quilts and more pending finishes in subsequent blogs. 
Happy Saturday!  Cheers, Claire W.

  4. Beautiful quilts. 15 years is quite a long term project. I want to know how you start half a project. That second quilt with the splat in the middle looks amazing. You have reminded me I have a little landscape of my garden that I should get out and finish. Great finishes Claire.

  6. All of them are wonderful finishes. You have much more 'stick-to-it-ness' than I do. I would not have saved anything unfinished after several years. Looking back I am sorry I did not save some things.
