Thread: UFO Challenge of the Month 2011

I don't have enough UFO's to last a whole year. Maybe I could start a new challenge to make at least 12 UFO's to join next year?

I could achieve that with no problem...

I will be trying to get one done by the end of January. My guild did it for 2010 and it was a lot of fun and I did get 10 quilts finished! However I still have several to do. Those pesky tops keep making babies in my pile and maybe my sewing room will get clean if I quilt some of them.

Since I am a newbie....what is "LS OBX " and "OBW"?
I learn so much from this board. Would love to join the challenge..only some of my UFO is not quilting...it's crosstitch :(. Although I am starting a very nice stash to start quilting...and the stash keeps growing the longer I look at fabric (online..dangerous..very good prices). Have a Happy New Year everyone and can't wait to see everyone's UFO completed pictures.

I'm new at this also and from reading other messages I decided DH stands for Dear Husband. Once I figure out how to post pictures - I'll let you know. Probably someone out there knows and can help.

Beginner10,

Yep, already asked that one.
;) OBW is one block wonder. If you search here on the board you can see some wonderful quilts made of OBW.

Anyone desperate for a UFO? I added mine up and have enough for well into 2012.
I need to keep repeating the motto, Done is better than perfect. New Year's Eve plans fell apart so I plan to work on a Fun and Done that has not been fun. Part of the problem is the black backing. My eyes aren't what they used to be. See eye doc next week. Want to take the FAD to guild on Tues. It will be a donation for our kid's quilt project.
Will we receive information where to post our done projects? Are these called FDP or what? I am trying to learn this new lingo.
Happy stitching

Oh, I need to join in too. I just cleaned up my quilt studio and found another stack of UFOs. Funny I don't even remember them until I really took a look. I have a lot... wow.... I have tooo many.
I' ve pulled out a winter wall hanging that needs a little quilting to finish and binding. I guess it is about 7 years old.

I really enjoy reading all your ambitious posts. It is my understanding that as you finish things, you just post them and the pictures on this topic line. I do not have time to finish one a month nor do I have 12 UFO's but you all still inspire me to finish or at least make more progress on the 4 quilts I have begun. This is such an amazing group of people. :-)
