Another Motorcycle QOV and !! the FIRST FINISHED ( or not) FRIDAY for 2025

Oh boy!!! Oh Boy!!!! are you ready for another Quilty year??? 

I am!!! I am excited with all the possibilities and the hope of finishing up some piles

I even have a First Finish for the year!!




Another MOTORCYCLE QOV!!!! - and the blocks are our Flags for Sue blocks - I had a few left, and!! I had strips cut to make more - so ... look at that - already using one of my piles to finish a quilt!!

Quilted it up with Stars and look at that BACK even - We use wide backs a lot, and there always seems to be some left over - so I made a new back. I really like it actually!! Adds some character!!

One thing I have learned about myself - Statistics are not my forte - but!! I finally got all the Quilts I finished last year into an album and counted - I actually finished 45 Quilts last year ( and I found photos of 13 QOV's I quilted) 

I am taking that as a HUGE win!!  Here is the Link to my 2024 Quilts by Quiltygirl album

and now.... Drumroll please:


My Girls!!! they are sitting next to each other, not growling, Muzzleless and!! Obeying me!!! My Hope had been before the new year, my goal had been by Valentines day.... I win!!! I am so ecstatic!!! My kids are all laughing at me as I sent this photo out ... Mom - you spend way to much time on the dogs haha!! Little do they know!!!

We have a lot of more work to do - but hey ! this is a HUGE win in my world!!

You thought I would keep typing For-ever!! didn't you?
No worries - It is NOW your turn!!!

The QFV quilt is lovely, a veteran will be thrilled. I'm glad your dogs are getting along now, it's like when little children outgrow the squabbling stage and learn to cooperate together. Happy stitching!

Nice finish! You did really well in your finishes last year. Congratulations on your sweet doggies, they are so cute.

Great job on 45 quilts in 2024, Alycia! And you're off to a running start with motorcycle quilt. Cute photo of your sidekicks!

Ooh, that's a beauty! I love the flag blocks surrounding the panel, and that backing - perfect. Hooray for your progress with the dogs, too. Such good girls!

I tell my kids that if they want me to spend less time on the dogs they shouldn't have moved so far away.

Well done! I have a first finish as well. ☺ I get you on the stats - I need to do better. But also hoping for more finishes this year. I need to put a dent in the pile. Happy New Year.

Great finish on the newest quilt (and your quilt-roll)! The girls look like they have been friends forever!
