I thought that I would take some time to show my UFO quilt projects (they are all in flimsy stage along with the 2 quilts this year I quilted) that I have completed this year. If I can finish Brinton Hall by the end of the month I will have finished 10 quilts. The only UFOs that remain or completions of Stonefields (5 more chapters to complete), A Bountiful Life (about 13 more blocks), and applique my Dresden Plates to back ground fabric and sew together! So based on this, I will TRY to not start anymore applique projects until I have completed the 3 hold overs from 2016-2018!
I am so happy that I have accomplished all of my UFO’s. Now to just finish Brinton Hall!
To close, God Bless President George H. W. Bush and may he Rest In Peace! What a testament to this President as a Man! A wonderful person who had so many friends who loved him and he loved them back! God be with the family and especially GW and Laura Bush as they have suffered the loss of both loving parents and in-laws within 8 months.

You’ve been busy this year in spite of all the set backs. Your completed flimsies and quilts are lovely. Brinton Hall is still my favorite. Can’t wait to see that one moved along!

I have the Potts pattern set. Have not had time to do anything with it. On my future radar to work on.

It gets boring. I have the pattern also. I think if I had made it a Red/Green quilt I would have liked it better, but did not do that! I am happy with the few I made.

After I finish Brinton Hall, all previous years will be completed – EXCEPT those pesky 3 that have to be appliqued! It will be hard to not start another applique project in 2019, but only if I finish what I have started! Have a great week-end.

I tried. I bet if I had not made York Lodge some of the 3 applique quilts would be further along.

Thank you Rachel. I made the Bear Paw so long ago but did not get the quilting done until this year! That is what happens when we stop after the quilt top has been completed, but it is not until the top is quilted – darn! Where are those quilting elves when we need them?
