I had bought all the quilt store had and used it in a couple other projects. Then, while looking for a part of another UFO, I found it. By then, of course, I'd bordered and quilted it. Yugh!
    Oh, I like this!

    Yeah I have UFO'S my daughter brought over from my house (married now still own house DD lives there)in a bag of my GGMA'S quilts and there in the bottom was a quilt top I had done and forgotten-that sure is a funny feeling when you don't really remember putting it together, I remembered the fabric though.

    I also look at them and wonder why and put them back in the protective bag because I will revisit them someday. :-P

    Thank you so much! All of the abbreviations are driving me nuts. There has to be a dictionary somewhere.
    Had to laugh, my house is full of UFOs. Just retired and discovered the joy of quilting. Don't know when will all of my UFO be completed. Will have to live for many years.
