Okay Ladies & Germs,
Since it was a holiday this past weekend, I went through my backing material for the last 7 moratorium tops I finished last month. This also will count towards the Moratorium Challenge I signed up for here on the board since I haven't bought anything. The tops are awaiting a trip to the LA--Yeah!

I located a "gifted" UFO I haven't seen in almost 11 yrs. Of course, I wouldn't find the one I was looking for . It was originally a BOM begun by my Fabric Angel (I love this woman!). She had it started, but doesn't really go for Stars all that much. After the first 4 months, she was going to trash it. I thought it was interesting. I asked her for it and she gave it to me. It is called "Bits and Pieces". I cannot remember who the designer is, but it is from 2008 (round about). It is comprised of variations of each monthly block in three sizes--6", 9" and 12". The kit supplied the material for the 12" blocks for each month, and you provide the material for the two smaller sizes. All of the squares are finished . It just needs border material and assembly. The finished top calls for applique, which really is not me, so there will be a bit of "White Space" for the LA to play in. It is supposed to finish at 80x94, but I always want "more", so I will add about 20" all around. I am really excited about getting this one done, but I have to remind myself to focus on my "Moratorium-Oops" and a Saturday Sampler before I dive right in.

Wish me luck!
