Long Term Projects

Before there were online quilt alongs, local shops would entice their customers with BOM projects – Blocks of the Month. Many designers still offer these projects, and it’s a great way to tackle a large quilt.
I have been working with some friends on a year-long Bible Study/quilt project called “Women of the Bible” and tonight I finished block 52! Here are the second half blocks, but it looks like I misplaced one. ARGH. That is certainly a sign that it is time for a deep clean of the sewing room! The other 51 blocks have stayed nicely in their pile, I don’t know what happened to the Shunamite Woman…
Some other BOMs have been patiently waiting for attention for many years. I have all the blocks done for the 2007 Marti Michell quilt called Hidden Stars…
A couple years ago I joined the Fat Quarter Stars QAL:
I stalled after putting the sashing on.
And the Block Lotto patterns from this year will make a nice QOV…I have seven months worth done.
How old are your projects? Would you start with the project that is closest to being done or whichever strikes your fancy?
