And another one done!

 
Quilted, and binding sewn around, ready to be stitched down during TV time.  I started this one in ummmm: maybe August, as a Rainbow Scrap Challenge project.  I'm also counting this one in my NewFo2013 tally, because I'd listed a red and white quilt for December for that challenge.
 
The motivation to finish everything that's been piled up in my workroom for a while is that the room will be put to use as a second guest room over the holidays.  All the heaps of clutter need to get hidden away someplace.   To further illustrate the challenge I'm facing, I store all of my big 40-yard rolls of batting in the guest bathtub, so that needs to be cleared out and hidden someplace too, but not in the sewing room which is where I would normally put it when the regular guest bedroom/bathroom are being used.
 
We're expecting a house-full!  But of course if the weather is stormy and the roads are bad, that could change to nobody coming up at all ...

Lovely quilt Jeanne - am smiling at you storing the batting in the bath tub - storage for batting is a real issue I think and there is no magic answer

Love the red! I also smiled about the batting in the bathtub. Will it go under the guest bed? That's one advantage to using antique beds. There's tons of storage under a bed that's 18 inches off the floor.
