There hasn't been a finished quilt in this messy quilt studio since March! I did recently finish TWO rainbow scrap quilt tops though - Bitcoin and Easy Breezy and that was a huge accompishment.
Unfortunately (or perhaps fortunately?!?) I have succumbed to a case of Startitis! I usually get a bad case of it and start many projects in January, but I am now exhibiting increased symptoms of severe Startitis.
Instead of finishing projects, I find myself gathering fabrics for the Edyta Sitar summer mystery that starts in June. I really enjoyed last year's summer mystery which was like a big jigsaw puzzle with traditionally pieced blocks.
NO! It's in the UFO waiting closet. It's simmering in creative juices, waiting for the perfect time to be quilted.
If you might feel a case of Startitis coming on and need to start something new, why not join in on the summer mystery quilt June?
And if you aren't a mystery quilt fan, you can join in on Pretti and Bernie's second annual positivity quiltalong.
So many fun projects to enjoy!
Startitis is very contagious, I think we all get it at some time!

LOL, I love the word, "startitis"! I think we are all in that boat at one time or another. No racing, just keep starting and a finish will come when it comes!
ReplyDeletemight not have had a lot of finishes but you have a lot going!
ReplyDeleteStartitis must be running around because I had a bad case of it last week. Love Edyta's mystery last year but I'm so not a mystery quilt kind of girl. I need to know what I'm working on before hands. I will cheer you on though. Maybe finished quilts will be trendy again someday. ;^)
ReplyDeleteStart-i-tus is more contagious than covid. You get it from Blogs and Instagram, lol. Don't even have to go out, no shot to 'cure' it. I don't want a CURE. Pretty flimsies in your closet.
ReplyDeleteOh, I have a closet that looks like that!!
ReplyDeleteOf course you are starting another mystery. Why not? LOL
I too started a new quilt, scrappy with tiny pieces! A couple friends are joining along with me but they are making theirs with bigger pieces. I should be finishing a top I started at guild or basting that wedding ring quilt to machine quilt! Ahhh but the garden and yard work are calling!
ReplyDeleteWell Kathy, it took me a year to catch up with tops that UFOs. But now I refuse to start too many more. One pieced quilt at a time. MY PROBLEM - is that I need to fire up the long arm and quilt some tops. I am now getting applique projects ready so I can work on them at night. But after spending 3 days getting them ready for selecting the fabrics and getting the pieces ready to applique - I tend to have STOPITIS! Hang in there, you will be glad to start on the UFOs soon. You always do finish them eventually and enjoy starting the new ones! Hugs
