My oldest UFO is from 1966-67. I just came across it yesterday. When I was expecting my first two children I made my maternity clothes. I had mostly, not frequently or well, made clothes and household things like curtains but with the leftovers from my maternity clothes I got the idea to try quilting. I made a 4" square cardboard template, cut a bunch of squares then pieced about 14 together. We moved a lot back then so it got put away. I did add some squares from leftover fabric from making my daughter clothes when she was little.
Around 2006-07 I finally got into quilting and have made some quilts. All but one have been given away. I usually fully make a quilt before I start another one so don't have quilting UFOs around - except for that one.
Now that I've found that UFO again maybe I can make something from those first squares and keep something for myself which will be full of memories.
