Finished Quilt -and Seeds

The Stair Steps quilt is completed. The binding is on and the quilt has been washed.  My two workmates held it up for me after I promised that they wouldn't be in the picture.  But, you may see hands. First the front:

Then the reveal of the pieced back:

I love pieced backs, they are like a free second quilt. 


Now I have started planting the seeds of my next project. 

See this "mess" ?????

That isn't a mess, really.  It is the seeds - the beginning, the what ifs, of a new project.  I am thinking it will be a Chinese Coins type quilt.  But who knows where my muse will take me as the seeds start to grow.  I only know that I need to finish this one - quilted and bound - in a couple of weeks. 
So much to do, so little time.  How do you fit in extra time for quilting?
