i finished about 8 ufo projects this past fall...but still have a stack in the closet, so at least one a month sounds do-able for a new goal...hoping for more, but not pushing it makes it more feasable to accomplish; have to get my machine back though, weird but i do more hand stitching and get more done when the machine is on the sewing table, kind of lost when it's not there...not able to stay on task well at all without it, even when i'm not using it...must be my security blanket :)

I just post the UFO Challenge of the Month Thread with moderator approval - http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-32637-1.htm

Basically, you complete a UFO each month. See thread for details

Is that the Eleanor Burns Pattern? Would love to see it.

Yes, it is the Quilt in a Day Underground Railroad. I did all the 6" blocks about a year at this time, then tucked them aways as other projets took ?priority?. Finally decided that it was time to get things done for ME. Thought I had better get right to it, before something else came along.

I have several of those tucked away projects myself. I'm almost done with my last 09 Christmas present. Yaaaaa.
Then I'll be getting my UFO's started again. The "My stuff". I was thinking about purchasing that Underground Railroad book the other day but kept telling myself no you have enough projects. Now I wish I had gotten it. Well when your done with yours please post a picture. I would love to see it.

That pesky housework is calling - so my goal today is to get that done...then finish the wallhanging and post it TODAY. Now it may be at 11:59pm......but that is the plan.

I got a couple of mini's done. Didn't get to some of the bigger projects I should've worked on :roll: Plan to follow through on the UFO challenge set out this past week :-D

I didn't finish mine. I kept it on the couch that whole time but only got 3 houses done. And then I had to put it away during the holidays, but I will get it back out when the tree is down and the furniture back where it belongs. I feel like I should just try to finish it by the end of 2010 now. In the meantime I did make two rag quilts and another lap size quilt, do they count? :)
