After I put the binding on my Flurry quilt, I got to wondering what number that quilt made of finished quilts for the year. Kim at Kim's Big Quilting Adventure offered a challenge this year to make/finish 11 quilts in 2011. I thought that was fair enough of a challenge. Fortunately I think that I am close. Unfortunately, I think that the rest is pretty much up to my longarm quilter!
Here is my list of "finished-so-far" in 2011
(that means quilted but does not count Schnibbles sized quilts)
1. Flurry/Kate Spain
2. Diamonds/Fig Tree
3. Dresden wedding
4. Picnic/Sweetwater
5. Picnic/Bliss
Here is a list of "finished-so-far" in 2011
but not quilted and in no particular order:
1. Picnic by Thimble Blossoms made with Verna
2. Butterfly quilt
3. Flying Geese/Comfort Stitching pattern
4. Gone To Market
5. Eventide
6. Sew Cherry
7. Union Jack/made with Quilt Soup fabric
8. Each Day is a Gift
9. Amelia
10. Fat Quarter Shop Mystery BOM 2008
So, now that I look this over... it looks like my longarm quilter will
be able to afford a very nice Christmas!
And I will be hunting the sale
racks for backing fabrics!

Oh we all keep our quilters happy! You have achieved a lot...maybe 2 completed Schnibbles could equal one other quilt? I would hate to count up my WIP's at present!
Great job on your challenge!!!
All of your projects are wonderful and inspiring! Terrific mosaic!
Your quilts are beautiful! Impressive how much you've accomplished! It normally takes me an entire year to finish one ~ although in my defense, I have quilt them. Hope you'll keep us updated on your progress:)

What great, great finishes! You did an awesome job...love the mosaic!
What beautiful quilts! Good job!!
What a beautiful mosiac!!!
Tell me more about the geese quilt I spy on the right side please.
Lots of great finishes! Love your style - can I pick one for me? LOL
Terrific mosaic.
Great job on the challenge. Keep up the good work.
I have been thinking I need to send a quilt or two out for quilting too--something I've never done before, but trying to quilt king size quilts on a domestic machine seems to get harder and harder each year! Good for you getting so many done; I'm nearing completion on my sixth for the year, so I'm definitely behind!
That an impressive list you have -- and a really pretty collage!
You've got a lot done! I too have a bunch of "ready to be quilted" tops but no cash to get them quilted all fancy like. So here they sit. There are 2 that will be going out for sure because I want to give them as Christmas gifts.
