None of it ever happens. No list, no goals= not disappointed by years end. Life happens too much at my house! LOL<br />Just a few blocks like you have could be turned into cute tote bags. Small quilts- just sandwich, quilt and bind then donate.

I'm with Gail - if I don't care for it any more - out it goes - I don't need the stress - I'm happy to ship it off to the thrift store (with notes and extra fabrics etc.) - let it be somebody else's headache, LOL!Sandra :)https://www.blogger.com/profile/16239494415344028806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2956210509414871391.post-64065779814107971282012-12-29T22:35:38.951-05:002012-12-29T22:35:38.951-05:00Because it's easy to tell someone else what to...Because it's easy to tell someone else what to do (LOL!):<br /><br />1. Finish the teddy bear first - it looks like it's already stitched RST to the backing as a throw pillow cover, so it appears to be almost finished! A quick finish would be a great start! <br /> <br />2. The first quilt is lovely - I think it could use another border, then some simple stitch in the ditch quilting (between the blocks) and binding.<br /><br />3. Ladybugs! Love those blocks, and particularly love that centre fabric (you gave me some!) :) Do you have any more of that ladybug fabric? Add an outer border in the same fabric (or another print that would work) (make it an inch or two wider than the inner sashing), SITD quilt and bind. Depending on the size of those blocks, it could be a dolly quilt or a table topper or a carriage quilt?<br /><br />4. Charm square quilt - I see 2 borders of sliced up charm squares - do you have any of the squares left? If so, add the same border on the sides, add an outer border, quilt and bind. No more charm squares? I would (I know this will raise some hackles!) remove the two existing borders, add a border in a co-ordinating print, then use the existing borders to "splice" backing to match the front :) <br /><br />5. Those are sweet - how big are they? Make a 3rd one and make a lovely tablerunner. Make each of them into a dolly quilt. Use them to make a tote bag or a drawstring gift bag or a panel for an apron ... or what about using them as the centre of a little tablecloth for a tea table for a little girl? <br /><br />WOW this is fun - all the fun and none of the work - I like this, LOL!Sandra :)https://www.blogger.com/profile/16239494415344028806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2956210509414871391.post-65996682536501678672012-12-29T21:40:20.929-05:002012-12-29T21:40:20.929-05:00I also made a list of projects I want to finish in...I also made a list of projects I want to finish in 2013 and if I don't care for it any longer, out it goes!<br />For your "what to do with it?" group, maybe some of your followers would be interested in buying them, or you could do a giveaway.
