Yes, there is a reason I have that "I'm a slowpoke quilter" button on my page. It's TRUE!
Here is a project I started about seven years ago. I've worked on it on and (mostly) off throughout that time. At the end of last summer I decided I was ready to push ahead and finish, but ran into a little bump and lost momentum. Since then, I've been out of commission with one illness or injury after another, so it was just finally last week when I felt like doing battle with it again, sewed the last seams, and added the borders. I finished it up at 80" square. Big enough to cover the bed with some color, but small enough that it also works nicely for sofa snuggling.
It's folded up and put away again because I have no idea how it will be quilted, but at least it's one set of blocks off the (huge) pile.
