OK, so my 1st quilt I began when DD#1 was 18 months old. I finished the
top about 10 years ago, tacked it up about 8 years ago,got put away and
then discovered and I am now finally quilting it. Have almost finished
quilting and just have the edges to cover. DD#1 will be 14 next
April!!!!! So if I finish it by her birthday, it will have only taken
12 1/2 years!!!!!
Planning a quilt for her sister, with luck won't take as long ;p)

I had a customer bring in a quilt to be quilted that she had started when
pregnant with her first daughter. Her daughter was turning 54 the next
month, and could I finish it by then? (I was booked up, but we did get it
quilted and bound for #55 *grin*)

My first quilt. I started it in 1989. It's sandwiched with some hand
quilting in the center of it. I haven't touched it in about 18 years-
except to look at it every few years. Actually, I like it very much... I
just don't have any desire to finish it for some strange reason.
