QuilterMomma you put me to shame and intimidate me some. Great quilts & quilting. I have been involved in several BOM and QAs so have been building up my UFO stash (lol).
I finished the wallhanging with the prairie points and did add a border. Those prairie points were done as a continuous strip so weren't as tedious as doing them one at a time. Just google continuous prairie points and there are a couple of different free patterns if you are interested.

I do not mean to intimidate anyone by any means. I am somewhat embarrased by the status I am in with so many quilts undone. Like I have stated, I am OCD and when I set my mind to do something, well these are the results. I love quilting and it is something I can do and no one tells me how. There just has to be an end to things being undone in my life and one of those things is my unfinished projects. Completing the old projects will let me start new ones that are more intense and show quilts. Hopefully out of all these I am doing, I will get a couple I can put in a show and the rest will sell or find good homes. Please do not be intimidated by my overachieving. I am in a contest with a quilt store as well to get the most UFOs done in a month. My OCD says I need to win for the year and each month. I would only hope my finishes would encourage you to get one a done as this thread's goal is. That being said BarbEllen Great job on finishing the wallhanging. I do like those prairie points. Prairie points are not something I have tried so there is something new for me to do with a quilt in my pile to dress it up and add something to it.

QMomma-- Kudos to you for finishing up so many UFO's! Such motivation for us! I just last week finished up 3 small projects, and am pressing onward! :)

Bells are ringing, and it is not Christmas time. It may feel like it with the yucky weather, but spring is on its way so let us all spring forward.

I'm not sure if these are UFO's or WIP's, but I finally got 8 mini's registered for AAQI tonight. I started many of them last summer so I guess they are UFO's!! Rather than duplicate pics you can see them here:

:) Thanks ranger and Linda. The 9P is a favorite of mine too.

Oksewglad, those are amazing. Those take as much time to put together as a lap quilt. So intense. You did some beautiful pieces there. Great Job!

Thanks! I timed how long it took me to do this 8 x 11 mini; 5 1/2 hours before hand stitching the binding on. Many of the others took a lot more time :shock:
