Didn't get done as much as I wished, but I have at least 14 finishes, 15 if you allow it. 4 advent calendars; 6 baby quilts & 3 lap quilts completely quilted & bound; 20 pillowcases for a friend's charity project (counted as 1 finish); and completed 6 more baby quilt tops with backings sewn & bindings sewn & pressed in a roll ready to go (not basted/quilted/bound yet, so I'm counting the 6 additional tops as 1 finish).Bekhynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8119596690600748752.post-85199456154386037282009-04-30T18:41:00.000-05:002009-04-30T18:41:00.000-05:00Just one completed project here.

I'm coordinating a spring formal dance "prom" for 120 teens happening April 24. The to-do list for that seems to be getting longer rather than shorter as the date draws near! - just two weeks away!
