1. There is no such thing as an UFO - it is a QIP - "quilt in progress"
2. Always do a label -years from now you will want to figure out it's age, etc.
3. All geese do not have to fly ---some may be resting!
4. Find a higher table to cut your fabric(to save your back) --I use the washing machine, kitchen counter or chest freezer top
5. Most of all, if at first you don't succeed -- put it away for a day and pick up a QIP.
