Hmmm..."boxes under the bed"...

Well, at this point all those old projects have been stuffed into a large box labeled "UFPs"* and shoved on a high shelf in a closet.

No sewing for me lately; among other reasons, both my machines need repair and I don't trust any place around here to touch them.  One is a 50-year-old Swiss-made Elna which I (stupidly) left in a garage for a number of years...oh how I wish I could undo that one.   Brick Wall

Henry, I also am happy to see another quilt project start.  Perhaps this time I can find a way to participate.  I look foward to whatever develops!   Grin

I'd be up for another square. Now that I sort of figured out how to applique making the first quilt, and my skills are a bit improved, I'd like to try it again. Even though I cussed a little (okay, a lot) on the first one, it was really fun to create it.

Nonny, I have an old Elna too, a 30-year old one I got out of the closet for the other quilt, but only used it to sew one seam. The rest was hand sewn applique. So you don't even need a machine!

Well.........................
Do we want to do "Kiva Quilt II" ? - Another variation of what our entrepreneurs do for a living?
Those squares for Kiva Quilt I were incredible!!

EDIT:  Afterthought - if this is going up for bid on EBAY no one is going to want a "Kiva quilt."  Forget what I said!!!!
