Here's the Plan

We all have them BIG plans and that's why there's so many UFO'S collecting in our closets and for that matter every other nook and cranny.  So I've decided to only work on UFO's or WIP.  Now that doesn't mean I can't make a new gift or commissioned work. Once I get them all done then I can start again! NO NO NO!  The PLAN would be to start and finish, start and finish...you know the way its suppose to be done(or so they say)  I want to be "A Finisher".  Now that it's out on the table the chances of success are much greater.  So here's what I pulled out of the closet today.  This was started last year sometime and I lost steam.  It was a build as you go project, no real plan, just an idea.  After a bad cut and a and some plan changing I managed to get it set on point with a border.  The next border is on the cutting table as I type.  Not stopping till its ready for the "Needs Quilted" Box.  

And looky here!  Yesterday I spent the day with momma doing the biweekly doctor visit with lab work and scans.  It was nuts, community hospitals....UGGG.  I begged her to switch doctors.  There's no reason to have so many tests and such....and then when we got there...we were there for 3 hours...I'm letting it go it's over.   Anyway look what momma bought!  We were getting enough batting for me to finish an old quilt top of hers and she said "Isn't it cheaper to buy it by the bolt?"  Well yes it is mom if the budget permits.  She promptly whipped out dads credit card and said "Your daddy's does, now get the bolt with your 50% off coupon!"  I'm thinking dad must have made mom mad, but I'm not complaining!
  Until next time "Quilt out of your Comfort Zone!"
