This is a wall-hanging I just finished. I think it looks messy in this photograph - probably because it is so little. The pattern is Bonnie Hunter's Rhododendron Trail - her mystery quilt from 2021. It was a challenge for me because not only did I make half the blocks, I made the blocks half-sized. For mathematically-challenged me, recalculating the block sizes accurately required me to focus fully on the task. Being able to focus for any length of time on anything is unheard of. This photo doesn't really do justice - the wall-hanging isn't really that messy looking! There are a million little pieces and because it is a 'scrappy' quilt, lots and lots of different fabric. Scrappy quilts are a Godsend for people like me who have been collecting fabric for a very, very, long time!
So what isn't a mess? These little beauties! Glimmer and Tipper! I love them so much and look forward to spending lots of time with them when I retire later this year.

That quilt is gorgeous--and certainly not a mess, LOL. Well done.
I bet you are so looking forward to retiring, and being with those cute little dogs. I have absolutely loved being retired, never looked back.
