Finding a quilt that is half finished is almost like savoring the project all over again. You know how it is. You see a pattern you like, find some fabric, and you go for it.
Yesterday I found these pieces from a long forgotten project.
It was a pattern from a magazine that I started several years ago, only to be laid aside and forgotten.But the really cool thing is -
It's almost done!!!AND there is enough fabric for borders, and backing too!
So in the next couple of days, I am going to try to sit at my sewing machine and see if I can pull this little quilt together. So what are you working on today??
Happy Quilting!

What a wonderful find! Isn't it great that our half finished projects can find us again and bring us joy a second time?
I found some half finished blocks over the summer that I am using for my Mom's Christmas gift. Love that!
What a lovely surprise to find! It's just beautiful! I'm working on secret Christmas presents today. :0)
Nice quilt, I like the design and your blue and white. It shouldn't take you long to get that finished.
Such a find and in your own stash.
Blessings to you my friend, So glad you found your squares; you'll have a top together in no time. I got Eleanor's book today and am going to start cutting this evening. If my top looks half as good as yours I'll be delighted!!!
Have a wonderful evening and thanks again for all your help.
Hugs, Noreen
What a lovely treasure to find. Bet you have fun finishing it off.
O, I can't imagine you forgetting something this beautiful !! I love it.
Love those blocks.
I have an award for you at my blog.
That quilt is just fabulous - you've not much more to do, can't wait to see! All I'm finding is pieces, lol, and I can't remember what they're for.
Your quilt is going to be awesome! I am working on a razorback quilt. Hope to post pics soon.
This is a cool looking quilt! And isn't it nice to rediscover it and its almost done! Now that's motivating - Happy stitching.
What a fun find and so pretty too!!

I'm sure it inspired you to create when you came across your misplaced treasures. Your work is lovely. My aunt is a quilter and when I was young she used to tease me that I would take a break between every couple of stitches. I didn't have the patience for it. Wish she lived nearby because it's something I would truly love to learn to do. Enjoy working on your piece.
Nice that is a great find. A quilt almost finished. One more UFO will be finished soon!
Love to cross a UFO off the list, have none from last year & hope to begin 2011 with none, well maybe one!
How fun! I am doing the same thing. I am finding some unfinished projects and trying to get busy. I love that quilt! I can't wait to see it finished.
Cool! Not much more to do and you will have a new quilt. Can't wait to see it finished!!

I love that quilt! Of course, I'm partial to two-color quilts, particularly blue and white. So tell me, what pattern is that? As I'd LOVE to make that quilt myself!
