Peg at Happy In Quilting has issued a //////Challenge\\\\\\\ a challenge to complete 5 quilt tops (or flimsies) into completed quilts by the end of July. I've decided to join in. Here is a pic of my flimsies collection numbered at 35. Oops scratch that picture. It would take me too long to stack them up for a picture. Then I would get side tracked. I did find this top and have been machine quilting it like a mad women for the last three days and I finished it just now. Thanks!!!! Peg for the motivation. I've been putting off machine quilting on my sewing machine for a month and a half. Now I've got some motivation going.
I started this quilt at lest 7 years ago. The top has been a flimsie at least for 5 years.

Sometimes a challenge like this is what one needs to get motivated. I have the motivation, but unfortunately just do not have the time right now. *sigh*
Ok, you have more than me! I joined the challenge too. I need motivation to finish things. Nice job on your quilting!
I love the quilt. Well done for getting it quilted.
I've joined in the challenge but I'm concentrating on making my blocks up into flimsies.
love and hugs xxx
I love your colours.
Good idea for a challenge. I'd be doing good to just count the flimsies that need quilting!! July is a bad time for me, but perhaps I'll try an abbreviated challenge- gotta git some done!
I love this quilt! Where did you get the pattern? All the variagated colors and contrasts!
Good luck on meeting your challenge :-)
You are well on your way to meeting the challenge. Keep up the great work *s*
Just a question: What are "flimsies"? Is this another name for a UFO (unfinished object)? Nice Jane blocks! I have had the book on my shelf for years and really need to make something out of it!!
Thanks, Karen O.
Very pretty, colors are so soothing. Think how great you'll feel when you are finished!
Gosh that's a pretty quilt and congratulations on getting it quilted.
I LOVE that quilt! The pattern within the pattern is so cool. I am going to check out the challenge. I've got quite a few tops that need to bequilted right now too. A challenge might help me get moving!
A great start on your challenge and I love the cool peaceful colors on you used in the quilt!
well done
