30/30 Sewing Challenge Goals - Groovy quilt

My longest UFO is the quilt I made for myself in Fall of 2012 which is still incomplete after almost 1.5 years. I think my worry point was that I had already spent 15hours of quilting and didn't get much done. Looking back how many more hours of quilting I had to put in this quilt, this went into my UFO bucket. Here is a post from a year ago when I did some feathers on this. I still have lot of quilting to be done, I think about 6 colors I completed one color(orange) and 1 is almost there(gray). Some FMQ feathers on the boyensberry color like the one below:




So, my groovy quilt is going to wake-up from my UFO and get done this month. I am hoping to spend 30mins at least each day on this until this 80x80 inches quilt top is done.

Linking up to Berry Barn Designs for 30/30 sewing challenge- week1.

When I first saw the pics at Art Gallery website , I was totally in love. When I recieved the fabrics they looked awesome in person and then finally when I started making my quilts. I am truly amazing to see how versatile Avant Garde fabrics are. These two are my most favorite blocks, the Panda is loaned from my 4 year old son ;).
