My UFOs are scattered everywhere - quilt tops, sandwiched quilts, quilt blocks, fabric to make quilt blocks, are in so many places, nobody can figure out how many there actually are - and I think I'd like to keep it that way!Shelinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09870112367076954109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29563767.post-47097488157648774622007-02-03T04:13:00.000-08:002007-02-03T04:13:00.000-08:00I don't quite as many flimsies as you do.

Can't wait to see them! :) (See, I told you I was taking lessons from you! LOL)<br /><br />I've fallen a bit behind in piecing bindings and backings the moment I finish a top. At least the binding strips are cut. Backings are the worst for me!<br /><br />Good job, Darlene! You're amazing!<br /><br />(Hugs)Vickyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08230311970559999653noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29563767.post-64836200766106561292007-02-01T08:19:00.000-08:002007-02-01T08:19:00.000-08:00I love you collection of bindings.

I...I don't mind you using the term, flimsy at all! In fact anyone who has that many quilt tops pieced that are waiting to be quilted has "earned" the right to call them what ever she wants! *LOL* Wow those are stacks! I love the idea of piecing the back and preparing the binding as soon as you are done piecing the top. I usually stop after the flimsy stage and by the time the thing is quilted I have lost track of what the binding will be. You are very organized! Keep up with the inspiration for the rest of us!Silverthimblehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17921807595542164387noreply@blogger.com
