Today went quickly! Breakfast, the traditional Easter egg hunt, and a little sewing took all morning. Church filled the afternoon and a headache has filled my evening. I'm just about to head off to bed again now, but thought I would share the quilt I am working on at the moment with you.
It is a very old work in progress that I decided to finish. (One of my goals for the year is to get some old projects finished or recycled!) I bought this fabric years and years ago at the patchwork apple. I think I went straight home and sewed the nine patches and then it just sat. I have been putting them together (it should be a flimsy tomorrow sometime) and then I will spray baste it and quilt it. There you go. A goal for this week!

Yay for getting things ticked off the list. I hate things half done and starting on something new, I'd rather get one project finished at a time so that I can move on and forget about it. I've got a half one quilt top from last October, I feel like I should get that one done very soon but there's temptation to work on new stuff.
I know where you are coming from.... i am also trying to finish off a few projects that I have started a few years ago (chuckle) hope you feel better so
Thank you so much Kris for popping to see my progress of the GJ quilt...I'm like you...I am keen on some finishes this year...Hope your headache is gone!
Hope the headache has gone and you have been able to sew today....no sewing here.....some cleaning and some sitting LOL
Love the colours of this quilt, nice floral patterns. can't wait to see the finished product.
I recognize your fabrics...yes, they were the ones I used to make a patch-work jacket for my Mom 6 or 7 years ago...LOL...I still love those fabrics! I dug out the leftovers from my stash and am using them in my 'A Quilters Journey" by Leanne Beasley. I am putting a big dent in my 'stash' with this quilt...after all it has been a journey!
I am looking forward to seeing your finished quilt.
I do hope your headache is gone too, and that you were able to enjoy your Easter weekend.

Those florals are lovely. I am glad you dusted it off and decided to finish it.
