Here are 2 finishes for the month..first is the UFO that I deconstructed and used the sky piece in the mini for the February mini swap. The second is the Lego quilt...first a closeup of my Fmq zigzags...nothing fancy that's for sure. I didn't cut fabric for the Lego quilt...just used from the 1 1/2" strip bin. I estimate 90% of the fabric is gifted fabric. I used a light weight sweatshirt fleece left over from a project for DGD over 10 years ago. Yep that's a Lego on the floor from DGS..binding is from stash as well.[ATTACH=CONFIG]570333[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]570334[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]570335[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]570336[/ATTACH]

Great way to deal with a UFO--- in my book deconstructing a UFO and using it to make a finished piece counts as a UFO finish since it is no longer on your UFO pile.
good job on using scraps and stash for the legs quilt. Doesn't it feel good to watch those piles get smaller?

QuilterMomma, Just love your quilt (637).
Oksewglad (661), to borrow a term, "WOWZER" That should go on the scrappy thread also, I just love scrappy quilts.
Thanks for sharing your wonderful craftsmanship guys.

Oksewglad, congratulations on 2 finishes this month! The lego quilt is awesome with all those wonderful fabrics. Great quilting! Good use of something old to make something new on the sky quilt! Toot, Toot!

Wow, there are some amazing quilts! I might be late for work this morning as I have spent too much time scrolling through the photos! I am so impressed with all of them!
I will have a UFO to add to the list this month. It has to be done this month because I put March 2017 on the quilt label. That is my motivation.
