The other 3 blocks I used to make the tablerunner. I'm slowly but surely plugging away at UFO's on my list of about 30 I hoped to get done this year. I have more in a couple bins, but they will probably be on next year's list!

Congrats on the finishes.
All three are beautiful.
I like the way you framed the stars in the 2nd one and the wall hanging.
I think that border blue that you used in the 2nd. one really adds to the quilt.
My favorite is the wall hanging .....love it.

Those sound like interesting UFOs, would love to see them. What is a wedding calendar quilt anyway? There is a wuilt to keep as a calendar for yourwedding. That has to be interesting for sure.

LOL, my wedding calendar quilt is actually a calendar quilt I am making as a wedding gift. Nothing so unusual or interesting. Just a square to represent each month. But the wedding IS THIS MONTH, so I gotta get it done. LOL

Thanks for this challange. It has been offered in my guild but I have never participated. I have finally moved my sewing room to a much bigger one and have all my UFO's in one area I am amazed at all the projects I have not finished. There are too many to count. So i am in.

I really like this little quilt. Is that polly batting? I am starting to fall in love with polly batting all over again. Very nice!

Well here is number 7 for my 10 to be done. If my hand surgery does not heal by this weekend, may only get in 8. I have one on the longarm that I can do. Doc said I could. I think he thought I was crazy because I asked how soon I could sew. This one is left overs that got put into a kit that daughter counted as a ufo. I did not have to use a ruler for the border, just used Pam Clarke's templates with pounce pad. Then did a swirvy in the ditch to add punch to it. Loved the puffyness of it so did nto quilt heavy. For a baby.
