Gonna Finish This One!!!

Good Morning Ladies and Gentlemen;

I have been sewing since I was about 10.  Odd things here and there. Mostly for my dolls.  My mother taught me a few things.  Took a class in High School.  Pretty much a self taught sewer.  In my 30's is when I started to appreciate Quilts.  I started one for  my Husband and I about 12 years ago.  I have to complete rows done.  It will be a KING when I am officially done..LOL

I have done a few lap quilts for Charity events and family members.  I just finished a small one for my Grandson and working on another one for my Granddaughter.   I have about several started and lose interest and then will go back to it.  I buy fabric with a quilt in mind and never get to it. 

So I joined Bonnie's Quiltville group about 6 months ago.  I am so glad I found this group.  It has given me the kick in the pants I needed to get those projects done. 

I am attempting the Celtic Solstice Mystery Quilt.  I am very excited to complete this one.  For several reasons:  One that I think it will get done.  Second: my mother's family is from Ireland and Third: it will be nice tribute for my mother who I lost in 1999.
