#2 - Baby quilt. My neighbour Jill is going to be a grandmother in May. She has given me pretty free reign with this, with the only caveat that it be a little obnoxious, in a "you surprised me, I surprise you" kind of way. Gender neutral, with a heavy dose of orange (suggestion from daughter #2) Jill graduated from Penn State - what are their colours?

#4 - Denim parade/concert quilt. Will this year be the one our butts are up off the wet grass? I have loads of jeans, and can pick up some PUL (polyurethane backed fabric) for waterproof-iness. I'm seeing a bear looming in the distance on this, though - I've never used it. Once again, we'll see when we get there.
In the *eventually* portion of the list are the remaining Christmas quilts (through 2026!), a couple of impending weddings that may or may not need quilt gifts, and Etsy. I'm toying with the idea of opening an Etsy shop to generate enough $$ to feed this habit. With Tori going to college in the fall, the budget's getting tightened up, and I really, seriously REALLY do not need to buy more fabric. But I do, sometimes *want* to buy fabric, and I need thread and batting, and quilting machine rental fees... so maybe. I'll see how things move forward on the things I need to do first off.
