The one on the right is Kaffe Fassett collective and Tula Pink fabrics. I love pink and green together. It is 59" x 82".
I have 28 finished quilts so far this year.
I only finished one quilt top in September. That is good because I have only made 24 new quilt tops and that means I have made some progress with finishing the backlog of tops. This one is 66" x 79". It is called Memories -1956 because it reminds me of the pink/gray trend when I was in high school.
I still have 32 tops waiting to be quilted. Some I would rather sell than finish. Others I want finished. 19 of them are in the small category (up to 66" in length) that I should be able to quilt myself. Only one top is in the large category (longer than 81"). The rest fall between 67" and 80" on their longest side.
So on I go, making more tops.....why?.....because it is the most relaxing therapeutic thing I can do other than knitting dishcloths. It gives me a chance to use my artistic side and experiment with design. That's way more fun than cleaning the house every day out of boredom.

Your last paragraph is so true for me too. I love making quilt tops and trying out design ideas.
Just keep making them. Your variety, thinking and skills only get better. You are an inspiration to so many. Gorgeous quilts.
