And if you get some quilting in here and there, that is a bonus.Shelinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09870112367076954109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18538999.post-1157291364534425562006-09-03T09:49:00.000-04:002006-09-03T09:49:00.000-04:0010 projects at a time - that sounds like a lot if ...10 projects at a time - that sounds like a lot if projects.

We are currently taking time to build memories with our grandchildren.Joycehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17083924435653058457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18538999.post-1157251559730875792006-09-02T22:45:00.000-04:002006-09-02T22:45:00.000-04:00I really like that one!

I"m so glad you spend time with Little Boy though - they grow up just too fast. This coming from a mom who has her 18 yr old son sitting in his room. He HAD to come home for the long weekend from college, but we have yet to see him! :)Quilts And Pieceshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02043640520513261597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18538999.post-1157251149508382382006-09-02T22:39:00.000-04:002006-09-02T22:39:00.000-04:00Your post is so timely - I'm a real completer-fini...Your post is so timely - I'm a real completer-finisher and I get twitchy about having too many projects on the go at once. Your strategy of planning to be working on several projects at once is a better way of looking at it, I think.Fionahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04378836466869691917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18538999.post-1157246492444538232006-09-02T21:21:00.000-04:002006-09-02T21:21:00.000-04:00You are making a lot of progress.

It's more important to make memories with your son than to finish quilts in a day, =)Susan https://www.blogger.com/profile/09159163720029661287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18538999.post-1157241556883031302006-09-02T19:59:00.000-04:002006-09-02T19:59:00.000-04:00The country wife is moving right along!

It would have taken me a while to figure out how it was put together if I hadn't seen the little separation in the lower right corner. :)ForestJanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05536396154296555583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18538999.post-1157241463835970362006-09-02T19:57:00.000-04:002006-09-02T19:57:00.000-04:00The Country Wife looks great.

The Country Wife quilt looks great - I don't think I've seen that fabric before. Enjoy these remaining days of summer!Hedgehoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03457631974666183374noreply@blogger.com
