the ever lurking WIP's

After such a wonderful stint with ma here and a lovely big list of finishes, I honestly thought "oh bugger.  What am I going to enter in the next Finish Along?".  No kidding.  I was contemplating taking one of my "this fabric is for this pattern" baggies and chopping the bits for a block, just so they'd qualify as officially started!!  Fortunately I had a rummage first.  Ho hum, well there's those two quilts I'm working on; they're top of the list.





Ooooh yeah, and there's those charms I cut for that cushion....  My first go at tumbler blocks.




...and wasnt there a cushion I didnt finish on one of last years lists?  Oh yeah, there it is.




That reminds me, there's that bunch of hexies for a cushion sitting somewhere in the living room.



And, goodness, isn't that a hoop in there too?  Man I thought I'd finished that donkeys ago.




And what was I planning after those two quilts?  Wasnt there another one to finish?  What was it?




Bingo.  The vintage stripes quilt...   Blimey.

Well.

That's a few more than I thought...  Best stop looking...

    Is that top one a ghastlies quilt? I think I spy bits of ghastlies fabric. If so, I think that should be the first one to do. Because I want to see it :)

    I'm too scared to look for WIPs. I'm fairly certain that I have quite a lot lurking in various places :-/

    I'm sure they hide, and then multiply!

    Definitely stop looking 'cos if you finish all those by the end of March you'll need something to enter for the second quarter ;o) Which one are you tackling first?
