Thank you for the list of sew a longs, I love the one by The Painted Quilt, just two colours and a simple design - beautiful after all the complexity of Dear Jane (mine WILL be finished this year!)

I wonder if there were some other variety of tulips a few hundred years ago that looked more like these, or if perhaps crocuses were once referred to as tulips? They look much more like crocuses to me, but maybe there are wild tulips that have more of that shape, too. Beautiful workmanship, whatever you call the flowers!Rebecca Gracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14801489818836195754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1662530267747207868.post-81073807935996487892017-01-02T11:38:05.315-05:002017-01-02T11:38:05.315-05:00I have seen other designs called Tulips that are s...I have seen other designs called Tulips that are similar in shape to what these flowers look like.

Some people can churn out quilt after quilt after quilt but not me. I used to feel like I need to keep up with others but I no longer feel that way. We all work at different speeds and that's good. Remember, Chris, keep it fun and keep the stress away. What's the worst thing that can happen if you don't finish a certain quilt this year? Your husband, children and grands won't care.

I have started collecting the 150 Canadian Women patterns and plan to start on that this week. And I joined the 17 for 2017 to work on some UFO's. (Picture me beginning to tear my hair out) But I have a mission to complete and quilt several quilts in the next few months so we shall see what I end up doing.
