May 2022 WIPs & UFOs

[@dorsicupp3110]

I also vote for finishing the Very Coriander Christmas blocks.

[@CorianderQuilts]

I would love to have them finished...they are fun to work on and I'm really enjoying seeing how different they look in Apricot & Ash versus Holliberry. =)

[@robindelude3787]

I'm going to vote for: Jelly & Jam (because it's time), and the Lone Star blocks. With a fabric line due June 1st, you have a lot on your plate! Love, love, love your fabrics! They are so bright and cheery! Have a wonderful day!

[@CorianderQuilts]

It is time to finish up Jelly & Jam...probably was a couple years ago. LOL! =) And I agree about the lone star blocks...a much faster finish! You have a wonderful day too! =)

[@kareneisiminger3718]

Bind Jelly and Jam......it's time LOL I love the quilt blocks too!

[@CorianderQuilts]

It is time!

[@jeannebichler8952]

Happy Scrappy baskets. I love that quil

[@pamelahowatt9711]

Clean your space first - frees your creativity. Then Jelly & Jam because small bites encourage us to take the next project with greater strength. Love your fabrics and your enthusiasm! Thanks for the videos.

[@CorianderQuilts]

Maybe I should get the sewing room tidied up first...I always love when it's all fresh and clean.

[@Bmon-js2lk]

Lone star and jelly and jam. It feels so good to get the old stuff done and out.🌼🌸Your darling.💕

[@CorianderQuilts]

Those two are getting the most votes and I think that is great!...Let's get those older ones done!

[@freespirit922]

I vote for Happy Scrappy Baskets and Lone Star quilt. Happy Sewing. 😊 Blessings,

[@CorianderQuilts]

Happy sewing to you too!

[@lynnestott1340]

Bind the jelly and jam quilt and put together the lone star quilt.

[@CorianderQuilts]

These seem to be the popular votes right now! =)

[@janetpicard6975]

Bind both! you can do both of those bindings so quickly! One block of Lone Stars, get that complete. Roll the Apricot and Ash project to next month. All beautiful, Corey!

[@CorianderQuilts]

I think your suggestions are right on!

[@patbankston8137]

I vote for binding Happy Scrappy Baskets and finishing the A Very Merry Christmas quilt blocks. Your fabrics are new to me and I can see I need to hurry up and start collecting your lines. LOVE THEM!!!

[@CorianderQuilts]

Thank you so much for your kind comments about my fabrics!...it's so much fun to design and use them in projects!

[@debbiehays9794]

Oh definitely work on the remaining 5 blocks with the Apricot and Ash from your Christmas book!!!!!! Absolutely beautiful!

[@CorianderQuilts]

They are so fun to work on and I love them in Apricot & Ash!

[@barbararodriguez1674]

Christmas block

[@brendafrye5875]

Jelly and jam. Very coriander Christmas. Lone you quilts and your videos

[@CorianderQuilts]

Thanks so much for watching along! Those Coriander Christmas blocks are intimidating me because I know they are going to take awhile to finish!...but they will be so pretty. =)

[@cbass6002]

Jelly and Jam, then the Lone Star quilt. Your quilts are just beautiful!!

[@CorianderQuilts]

Those seem to be the two that most people would like me to finish!

[@leegifford3261]

I would say bind the Jelly and Jam and finish the lone star block quilt! Another fun episode😊

[@CorianderQuilts]

I think you are right on those two!

[@jeannebichler8952]

Happy Scrappy Baskets. Love that quilt. Truthfully I love them all

[@CorianderQuilts]

I love it too!

[@sewhapi2347]

Good Morning Cory! First time to comment on ur utube. Just want to say how much I love all of your fabric! I do have all of ur fabric lines!!! I have made my own quilts with ur fabric collection. I think u should finish the lonestar, and the basket quilts. Those would not take that many days. Well, you could get another block in after making some progress on the the others! I have the same problem as all quilters do!! You are priceless in the creative world of quilting! You inspire me with all fabrics!! You and lori Holt our my favorite creator's! Let's have a wonderful day today 😊

[@CorianderQuilts]

I'm so happy you are commenting today! It is so nice to hear from you. =) I think your suggestions are perfect...bind that one quilt, finish lone star and maybe sneak in a block or two of the other. Thank you so much for your kind comments on my fabrics...I really appreciate that!

[@denisebooth866]

Bind Jelly and Jam. Finish Coriander Christmas, so pretty. 😁😁😁🌷🌷🌷

[@CorianderQuilts]

I would love to work on those Coriander Christmas blocks some more!

[@karenmorton3849]

Love all of them! I vote for the Coriander Christmas quilt in Apricot and Ash and the Jelly and Jam quilt. You are such a busy girl!

[@CorianderQuilts]

It has been a busy spring!...you are all so encouraging in me getting these projects checked off my list. =)

[@stephaniebauer9028]

I vote for Jelly and Jam and the Coriander Christmas blocks. Love watching your videos and just love your fabrics!

[@CorianderQuilts]

Thank you so much for watching!...Jelly & Jam really needs finished--and I'd love to make some more of the Apricot & Ash blocks!

[@nancyvermette2329]

For sure the one that need 5 blocks! I love those. 😊

[@CorianderQuilts]

I've loved working on them!

[@beckyscheller9358]

Love the basket quilt especially the quilting. So colorful

[@CorianderQuilts]

David did such a perfect job quilting the basket quilt. I love how it turned out!

[@debbiebraatz1919]

Jelly and jam and the lone star quilt blocks😊

[@CorianderQuilts]

Yes!...I think you are right!

[@BrendaH289]

I recognize the fabrics in jelly and jam ♥️ finish the oldest items first! You will feel joy in completing them

[@CorianderQuilts]

Flower Mill fabrics!...it's always fun re-visiting those older lines. =)

[@sandrasaliga3551]

I suggest you finish which ever one causes you the most stress unfinished. Have fun . I love all your work

[@CorianderQuilts]

I don't know that I feel too much stress about any of them but I do think they should either be finished or given away so that they can be enjoyed by someone!

[@rhondapeterson4628]

I vote for binding Jelly And Jam, it's waited long enough 😉 and then the Lone Star blocks. You are inspiring me to dive into my WIP's as well, so thank you for that!

[@CorianderQuilts]

Good luck finishing them!...I've found these videos to be so encouraging...it's always fun to sew with friends. =)

[@frontofficed.burnell-power6288]

Jelly 'n Jam because I could see it weeping ("what have to be so neglected :)". Lone Star ...so you are happier for those around you!

[@CorianderQuilts]

It has been neglected....2017!--I couldn't believe it!

[@lindatestino5024]

Bind Jelly & Jam!! Finish the 5 blocks with the Apricot and Ash!!! Love that line

[@CorianderQuilts]

I've had so much fun making those blocks in A&A!

[@sherryconroy3507]

Apricot and Ash! So beautiful!

[@CorianderQuilts]

I love that one!

[@dorsicupp3110]

I vote for binding the Jelly and Jam quilt.

[@CorianderQuilts]

That one is in the lead! =)

[@lisastreasures]

I'm really liking that black background with the lone star.

[@CorianderQuilts]

I really like that Moda fabric for backgrounds...it's adds some textural interest. =)

[@donnacox2194]

Jelly & Jam finish first. Finish the Christmas blocks they are so cute!

[@CorianderQuilts]

Those blocks will be so much fun to work on!

[@judyriddell]

I say bind the oldest project and sew the lone star blocks. I love them!

[@CorianderQuilts]

I think those are the two that are going to end up getting the most votes!

[@lorireckler3345]

Hmmm...I vote for Jelly and Jam and the Lonestar...it's gorgeous!!

[@CorianderQuilts]

I think those are the two that I should work on too!

[@suepeschke2256]

I am a check off the list person also so bind the quilts so you can check them off the list. I enjoy playing with your fabrics. They are beautiful. Thank you for your videos, they are fun and encouraging

[@CorianderQuilts]

Oh!...that's a great suggestion, so you would do both quilts first and get them checked right off. Maybe I do just need to do both of them first and then figure out the the next thing after that. And thanks so much for your kind comments on the videos...it's been so fun sharing more this way. =)

[@alexandrawellington8028]

Bind jelly and jam. Finish the lone star. Give yourself a chance!!! xxx

[@CorianderQuilts]

I like the way you think!

[@theresameynardie2158]

I vote for binding the happy scrapie basket and finish the Lone Star block quilt.

[@CorianderQuilts]

I’d love to get those both finished!

[@annaczarnecki3348]

Add binding to the jelly quilt. Lone star finishing next. That’s my vote! Love everything though!

[@CorianderQuilts]

Those two would be the quickest to finish!

[@kathyyarbrough303]

The Apricot and Ash blocks. I will be excited to see those. It is going to be a beautiful quilt.

[@CorianderQuilts]

I've so enjoyed working on them!

[@debbiehays9794]

Bind them both! They are gorgeous and machine binding is quick. 😜

[@CorianderQuilts]

This is a great suggestion and you are right! I could get them both checked off my list this month. =)

[@lindakendall9943]

Bind jelly and jam! Its been waiting the longest! Complete the Lone Star, it wont take as much time - with a fabric design deadline, allow yourself some breathing room! I got one done, had to wait on fabric to finish the second one, hopefully this weekend - after the Mother's Day High Tea at church Saturday! Have a blessed Mother's Day!

[@CorianderQuilts]

You have a wonderful Mother's Day as well!

[@roosterquilter783]

Jelly and Jam. Lone Star blocks. I also like the thought that a sewing room/studio can also be considered a WIP, I've been working on mine in between projects.

[@CorianderQuilts]

My sewing room is pretty much always a WIP! =)

[@omisfavorites1054]

My votes are for binding the Scrappy Basket quilts and making the rest of the beautiful/complicated Christmas blocks. By the way, your cheerful, happy videos are a great way to start my day!

[@CorianderQuilts]

Those two would be the most fun to work on! Thank you so much for watching along!...It's been fun sharing more videos--and I love that I get to chat with you here in the comments too. =)

[@lpapacek]

Your excitement and enthusiasm is so fun to watch! Your fabric and quilts are so beautiful!!! I would love to see you finish the binding for Jelly & Jam.

[@CorianderQuilts]

Thank you!....I'd love to finish Jelly & Jam too. =)

[@susanelliott1970]

Bind them both! A finished quilt makes it a quilt.

[@CorianderQuilts]

You are right!

[@judyn2049]

My vote: The basket quilt and Coriander Christmas blocks. Love your videos. Thank you for sharing!

[@CorianderQuilts]

Thanks for voting!!...I'd love to check those both off my list.

[@quiltnana5]

Jelly and Jam needs to be finished. It’s been waiting to shine. The Coriander Christmas quilt next. Have fun😄

[@CorianderQuilts]

It has been waiting for a while!

[@waikikialoha6300]

My favorite ones that should be finished are the Coriander Christmas ones. They’re beautiful.

[@CorianderQuilts]

I so enjoy working on those!

[@janemcdaniel7502]

scrappy baskets and the lone star blocks! I was very happy to finish a table topper for my mom for mother’s day 💛💛

[@CorianderQuilts]

Your mom will love that!

[@afitz4156]

I love watching you while I rest in the afternoon. Thank you for bringing so many incoriging hints.

[@CorianderQuilts]

Thank you so much!

[@karenfranson8890]

I vote for you to bind the basket quilt next, and to make the remaining blocks for the Very Coriander quilt! Love them all, however! ❤️

[@CorianderQuilts]

Those two projects would be the most fun to work on!

[@annierubyslipperz589]

I love the Hymn words quilt!

[@CorianderQuilts]

I was so happy with that finish!

[@lorithompson8828]

Bind the Jelly & Jam - it deserves the finish! And finish the Lone Star blocks. 😊

[@CorianderQuilts]

Those are the oldest projects!

[@carolbanks8313]

I vote the basket quilt. I just love that one.

[@CorianderQuilts]

I think it turned out so pretty!

[@katrinamiller6076]

They are all beautiful! I vote for the Lone Star and jelly and jam!

[@CorianderQuilts]

Those two are getting the most votes!--they are the ones I think I should work on so I'm glad many of you agree!

[@lynnpeterson618]

I think the Jelly and Jam binding and then to either of the block sets. I do 5 km every day too! Then back to sewing. I have 7 quilts to bind so let’s do that binding! 😂

[@CorianderQuilts]

The never ending binding! LOL

[@lorinanninga224]

Bind jelly and jam quilt and lone star quilt, which will give you another quilt to bind!!! LOL. I used your binding method yesterday to finish a few baby quilts and it worked so well!! I am a newish quilter and was so happy to get those done!! Thanks for your help and inspiration!!! Good luck with your 5K challenge ❤️

[@CorianderQuilts]

I'm so glad most people are voting for the lone star!..that one is going to be a quicker finish for me this month. And I'm so glad the machine binding technique worked well for you! I love being able to machine bind...it sure speeds things up! Thank you for your encouragement on the daily 5K's...I'm going to see if I can convince my daughters to join me today. One year we all participated in this challenge but they haven't been so keen to try it again. =)

[@spring984]

I LOVE THE HYMNS QUILT!!!! I have made 2 with her hymn line and could easily make more. I better move on! I LOVE ALL YOUR WORK, CORY!

[@CorianderQuilts]

After collecting those hymn tea towels for so many years, it has been so much fun that Stephanie has started designing for Moda. Did you see her second Songbook line is just starting to arrive in quilt shops?

[@cyannamufford2253]

Mrs. Yoder, I would be honored to bind your quiltS for you. It is one of my favourite parts of quilting and I would definitely do that for you because you do so much for me and you don't even know it!

[@CorianderQuilts]

That is so nice of you to say!

[@Gemsfield]

Jelly and Jam definitely needs finishing first 👌🏻 and I'd love to see Lone Star sewn together ⭐

[@CorianderQuilts]

I think it needs finished first too!...and I think those lone star blocks are an even older WIP than the Jelly & Jam quilt...can you imagine!

[@Gemsfield]

The satisfaction you'll get from completing the older WIP's will be super! Then you can add new WIP's 🤣

[@CorianderQuilts]

@@Gemsfield I wish I had a little bit more trouble adding more WIP's to my list. There are always so many fun projects to start. LOL!

[@marcelleb1437]

I say get those bindings on the two quilts. The finish will feel so rewarding.

[@CorianderQuilts]

I agree!

[@rebeccasewing]

Happy Scrappy Baskets for binding. Lone Star is my vote.

[@CorianderQuilts]

Thank you so much for voting! =)

[@lelasijtsma6609]

I vote for Jelly &Jam, I have the same starburst blocks, so that is my vote, and I would love to get the Christmas book, so I could work on that. That would be a fantastic quilt along.

[@CorianderQuilts]

Those two projects would be so fun to finish!

[@andie3285]

I love apricot and ash so I'd vote for those blocks! 😍

[@CorianderQuilts]

They would be so much fun to work on!

[@niki2320]

My votes: finish the jelly roll jam binding and sew together those lone stars!!!

[@CorianderQuilts]

Those two are getting the most votes!

[@palindrome36]

Jelly and jam quilt and the Christmas blocks

[@CorianderQuilts]

Jelly & Jam needs to be finished!

[@jylromain6439]

Jelly & Jam because it needs to get done. I'm in love with Apricot and Ash so I vote for the Coriander Christmas. That way it will be ready for this year. I had a jelly roll given to me and it has been sitting because I don't like any patterns I've seen. Just sewing strips together does nothing for me.Then I found your patten, Jelly Stix and I fell in love. I have all the blocks done and will sew them together today. It came together so fast and easy. In spite of not liking the fabrics, since I'm not a floral fan and this just had too many, this actually came out very pretty. I didn't finish the repair quilt for my niece because I was sick for just over a week and lost time, and then ran out of the thread to tie it. Thread is on its way and I'll get it done this month. Then my grandson's t-shirt quilt.

[@CorianderQuilts]

Jelly & Jam does need done!...and those Coriander Christmas blocks have been so much fun to sew in Apricot & Ash. I'm so glad you like the Jelly Sticks pattern!...it's always fun to have a quick/simple pattern handy when you want a quick finish. Good luck with your May projects! =)

[@laurenrogers4540]

Bind the both at the same time maybe with a scrappy binding that would look cute and follow the scrappy look of all the colors.

[@CorianderQuilts]

I love the idea of a scrappy binding...especially for the basket quilt! I think I already know what binding I will be using for Jelly & Jam but I haven't decided yet for the baskets.

[@pricillamurphy339]

Definitely Lone Star and Jelly and Jam😊

[@CorianderQuilts]

Those two are getting the most votes! I hope they continue to!

[@candicedevane9000]

Happy scrappy baskets would be my choice….1st….and then Coriander Christmas (apricot and ash) love them both!

[@CorianderQuilts]

I'd love to check those both off my list! The Coriander Christmas blocks have been so much fun to work on in Apricot & Ash.

[@lmorgan1028]

My vote is for Jelly and Jam binding. You’ll feel more accomplished to check that one off. 😊 And, complete the A&A blocks. They are absolutely gorgeous! I need to tidy up too this month. I’ve been working on quilts I am Making for my sisters and I’ve got one done this month.

[@CorianderQuilts]

Jelly & Jam definitely needs to get checked off my list! It's too bad sewing rooms don't tend to stay tidy after they've been cleaned up!

[@jillianbelan8946]

Happy scrappy baskets binding, Lone Star blocks, just in case you run out of things to do. 🤣

[@CorianderQuilts]

LOL...just in case! =)

[@conniekirby851]

Jelly and jam! Lone star!

[@CorianderQuilts]

Those two are getting lots of votes!

[@barbaraword1519]

Baskets and the one with apricot and ash ( my favorite collection!)

[@CorianderQuilts]

I've so enjoyed working on the A&A blocks!

[@greenquiltsgalore1326]

I would like to see the binding on the baskets quilt, and finish the Texas stars without sashing. That day background is great!

[@CorianderQuilts]

It's fun changing things up and going with a darker background!

[@cindymcfarland4686]

Obviously you must finish them all! But I vote for the scrappy baskets and the Christmas blocks first. BTW, I love your purple shirt!!

[@CorianderQuilts]

Wouldn't it be great if I could finish them all up this month!...that would be fun. =) And thank you for the compliment on the purple shirt--it was a thrift store find. =)

[@kaydammast5177]

I would love to finished quilt using Apricot and Ash. That is such a beautiful fabric line. And it's time to get that jelly and jam quilt bound!

[@CorianderQuilts]

Those A&A blocks are so much fun to work on!

[@susanlee1827]

I vote binding the jelly and jam. She’s been waiting patiently the longest. And as much as I love your beautiful fig tree blocks…I figure you need to get the stars out of your way and then you can fuss with the new blocks for the other one. That’s my vote. I did finish 3 tops since the last week of April, ready to quilt; have a couple more I’m mulling over before I go on a trip to see my family mid May. We will see how that all pans out!!

[@CorianderQuilts]

Jelly & Jam has been waiting for so long!...you are right! Way to go on your quilt top finishes...you've been busy!

[@Moto_QTPieGirl]

Oh finish the binding on Happy Scrappy Baskets and your 5 Coriander blocks!!! So so pretty!!! Loved your enthusiasm on completing your projects!! You got this!!! 😃🎉🙌🏼

[@CorianderQuilts]

It's so nice to have everyone cheering me on!...just the incentive I need! =)

[@rebeccalowe6820]

I would bind Jelly & Jam next. It’ll feel so good to have it finished 😊

[@CorianderQuilts]

You are so right!

[@michellewhiting2164]

Definitely bind Jelly and Jam- you will feel so good crossing that off your list!

[@CorianderQuilts]

You are right!

[@cherylrose494]

Jelly and Jam binding and the Lone Star blocks.

[@CorianderQuilts]

Those two are the winners!

[@abigaildolinger2754]

You will feel so good when you finish the Jelly and Jam quilt! Go for the quicker finish and turn the Lone Star blocks into a quilt. I did finish my WIP that mentioned in a comment last month. This month I need to make pillow shams for my friend; I have been putting off the project for awhile and need to get ‘er done!

[@CorianderQuilts]

I think you are right! Way to go on finishing your WIPs!

[@janicegorgoglione234]

I would bind the Happy Scrappy Basket quilt and finish the 5 blocks from your Christmas book. Both are beautiful.

[@CorianderQuilts]

I'd really like to find/make the time to work on those Coriander Christmas blocks...they are so much fun!

[@patimcferran47]

Finish the Very Coriander Christmas the Apricot and Ash is beautiful!

[@CorianderQuilts]

I've really enjoyed working on them!

[@lynnscroggins7104]

I would bind Jelly and Jam since you have had it the longest. And as for the blocks…don’t stress yourself out, do the one block so you have plenty of time for your new fabric and sewing room. And no, I didn’t get everything accomplished but, I did get a top completed! Now to quilt it this month

[@CorianderQuilts]

I think those are just the two projects that I should work on too. Way to go on your quilt top completion!

[@jodymurphy4295]

Lone star blocks look ready to go, so go for it!

[@CorianderQuilts]

I'd only need to make one more!...it's a much quicker finish than the other blocks.

[@robinh]

Lonestar. And bind the oldest quilt. Thanks for coupon!

[@CorianderQuilts]

I'm glad many of you are picking Lone star!...that is going to be a faster finish than the other blocks. And it's great advice to finish the oldest quilt first.

[@UsernameUnkwn21]

I LUV the fabric in the lonestar block! They would make a great throw or individual throw pillows..(,in my living room bahaha)..

[@CorianderQuilts]

Those lonestar blocks are so happy...I'd have to go look at them again but I think they are a mix of my first three lines of fabric: Prairie, Sundrops, and Lulu Lane. And you are right, they would be perfect for pillows!

[@jackiestills6257]

Bind jelly & jam and finish the lone star quilt! 😁

[@CorianderQuilts]

Those two are definitely the popular vote!

[@darlenebrock3422]

Bind Jelly and Jam. Finish the Lone Star quilt top. Love your videos!

[@CorianderQuilts]

Thank you so much for watching!...I think your votes are exactly right. =)

[@nettieanngill782]

Binding on jelly and jam. And finish the last 5 blocks of Coriander Christmas blocks.

[@CorianderQuilts]

I would love to work on those Coriander Christmas blocks!

[@michelleearls8460]

I vote to bind the jelly and jam quilt and the apricot and ash blocks.

[@CorianderQuilts]

That Jelly & Jam quilt needs finished!

[@sandrahart9190]

How about both. The basket I would do first. Love your quilts🌷💕🦋💕💜

[@CorianderQuilts]

It'd be great to check both those bindings off my list!

[@lindakQOV]

I'm going to vote for the older projects, Jelly & Jam and the Lone Star blocks. I'm working on finishing older projects and it's working by finishing one older project before I start (and finish) a new project. Having the new project to look forward to encourages me to get those old ones finished! This month I have a 2016 top to quilt and bind. Wish me luck, because it's time for the summer houseguests to begin arriving this month.

[@CorianderQuilts]

I think checking those two older projects off is a great suggestion. And I really like your idea of making sure to finish something old before starting something new.

[@sandrad1451]

I vote bind Jelly and Jam. I find it feels good to finish things that have been around for a while. And lone star as it’s closer to the finish line than the other project

[@CorianderQuilts]

It will feel fun to finish that one off!

[@sharonstarr6338]

I love all of these but since I need to choose I think you should bind the Jelly & Jam since you finished it so long ago. Time to mark that off your list. I just love the Apricot and Ash blocks but with your pending deadlines you have a better chance of completing the Lone Star blocks. Don’t stress yourself about trying to get too much done! Love all of your videos, fabrics, books and quilt designs!

[@CorianderQuilts]

Sharon, I think your votes are exactly what should happen for May!

[@patriciabrawner3717]

Bind happy scrappy baskets, & a very Coriander Christmas.

[@CorianderQuilts]

Those two would be so much fun to work on. I've really been enjoying the Coriander Christmas blocks. =)

[@rhondapatrick2]

Decisions, decisions!! My artistic voice is fighting with my logical voice…lol! But in the end I would go for Jelly and Jam…because even though I love the hymns, it will get quilted soon because it is so loved! Lone Star is one of my favorite blocks and I cannot wait to see this one quilted! I am hope you will share the link for that pattern!!! 💗💗💗💗 thank you again Corey for sharing your journey! Yes, my 1 WIP is done for April….I am new to quilting so I was able to finish a table topper, placemats/napkins for a bridal shower gift, so that’s a big win for me. I also finished 2 crocheted baby blankets for my youngest grandson.

[@CorianderQuilts]

I think my logical voice is winning this round too...Jelly & Jam and lone star are the practical choices! You'll find the link for the lone star pattern in the description of this video. =) And way to go on finishing your WIP! =) You got a lot done!

[@pepavolpe]

Jelly and jam. And the lone star.

[@CorianderQuilts]

Those two are getting the most votes!

[@stellabredin1222]

I think you should bind the Jelly and Jam quilt and finish the lone star quilt top. I love lone stars!🌟

[@CorianderQuilts]

Those two are great suggestions...the lone star quilt would be fun to have finished.
