April UFO is a flimsy

I had shuffled my UFO numbers this month, so that I could be working on a UFO that needed very little done to it. I had originally planned on putting a last border on this out of the dark purple. But after the last yellow border went on, this quilt told me, in no uncertain terms, that it considered itself finished. All it wants is to be quilted, and bound with the dark purple, to go with the narrow dark purple in the quilt. Who am I to argue with what a quilt wants? So, April's UFO is finished, into a flimsy, at least. When it will actually get quilted is anybody's guess at this point. But, at least it is done up to this point. One more to scratch off the list. Woohoo! I wonder what number will come up tomorrow? I think I'll work on whatever gets pulled this time around, even if it doesn't get completely finished.

  4. I think the quilt is right. Bind it in the purple and it will be complete. I really like it. I wish I had a yellow quilt made to use on my bed in the spring. I need to get busy or quit looking at blogs and seeing quilts I want to make. lol

  8. I really love your quilt! And I think that what it was saying to you was totally correct! I sometimes wish that my quilts would speak a little louder, or maybe that'd I'd learn to listen a little better? :-)
