OH NO! I did it again!!

I have vowed not to start a brand new quilt until I finished some of my UFO's.  But there is something about an empty design wall that seems so wrong!!



OH OH OH! Heaven help me, I couldn't resist!  I started another quilt.  This is one I had been asked to do for a friend's son for Christmas (last year) and  had put it on hold because I was having fun doing other quilts.  So, TECHNICALLY, it IS a UFO, albeit not started yet.  Right?  (That's my story and I'm sticking to it!)

This quilt was easy to set on the back burner, I'm not crazy about the pattern, the fabrics, or the fact that the recipient of this quilt already has a quilt made by me in the fall of 2015 (as a birthday present from my friend). Also, there is a modification to the pattern that I have to work out.  Sometimes people just know know what they're asking!

  


 I AM flattered that he loved it so much that he wanted another one, BUT he doesn't know how much time/work is involved, obviously.  Anyway, my friend provided all the fabric and the patterns, I just donate my time.  I love my friend, and I will make this quilt for her.  She can give it to whoever she likes.  She offered to pay me, but I do not charge for making quilts, to me, that would make the project "a job" instead of a fun hobby.  Ok, enough venting! I could have said "no", and I would not be in this position.  I know, I know, I'm a marshmallow.  Maybe I should call this the "Marshmallow Quilt" instead of Badger Quilt #2.
