2018 Quilt Wrap Up

Here it is the last day of 2018.
I was thinking about the quilts I have finished this year.
I completed ten of them.
I also managed to meet some of my goals for 2018.
Most of my goals fell to the wayside. I'm OK with that.
I quilt for fun. I'm not worried about all the things I didn't accomplish on my list.
I'm excited for the things I learned and quilts that got done.
That's what counts.

I made collages of the finished quilts by size for a quilt parade.
They go from mini to full size.


Two mini quilts.
They are fun as always.
The one on the left is my favorite mini so far. 



Two table runners.



Baby gifts.
Technically the two on the right are doll quilts.
The pinwheel quilt is one of my favorite baby quilts.



Last but not least the full and twin sized quilts.
I finished the full sized blue jean quilt in January and we've used it all year long.
The twin quilt was my first weighted quilt.


That's not all that got done this year with quilts.
I have a few flimsy finishes as well.
A flimsy is a completed top that hasn't been quilted yet.
These should be celebrated too!


I finally finished this hexagon table runner top.
This is my oldest UFO (Unfinished Object).
I'm hoping to get it quilted this year.



This has been on the back burner for so long I almost forgot about this top.
It is probably the craziest one I've done but I love it!
It was part of a sew along I participated in the spring of this year.
It still needs batting and backing.
I have no ideas for the back yet.
I'm hopeful to get it quilted this year as well.



Last but not least is this crummy photo of part of the back of a quilt that's a gift.
I really don't want to spoil this one so I'm not showing the front.
I really like this one and it will be worth the wait.
It's currently on the hand quilting frame.
I'm hoping to have it done by May.

So that was my quilting adventure this year.
Except for the aforementioned three quilts,
I'm not really making many official goals for the coming year.
I'm keeping most of them to myself this time.
