"finished" means all the way done and ready to use.
personally, i also count as "finished" anything i've given or traded away because i know i'll never follow through with it until it's properly done. (i prefer to give rather than trade. if i trade then all i get for my trouble is another stinkin' UFO! :lol:
SWAPPING is NOT part of this challenge. naturally, if members want to trade between themselves that's just fine. i mean only that it isn't a part of this and should be done separately between individuals.
i'm gathering up all my WIPs and UFOs this week and working furiously to organize and inventory in preparation for this challenge. i'm even going to take "before" photos on 31 Dec so i'll know where i started the year on each project. i figure it will be a minor miracle if i don't end 2010 with the same number of UFOs or more. :lol:
