Boston 1954, PIGS are Projects In Grocery Sacks! Purchased and planned but not yet started! My sewing room is very porky!

I finished my ugly quilt and my niece's quilt. I have 1 more- don't care for it, so I'm ignoring it.

I won't start anything without finishing it. no more wips/ufos for me!

I got mine done, but have been waiting for my sis to take a digital pic so I can get it posted. Thanks for the challenge because who knows when I would have finished it. It was started to take to meetings to work on and it never worked out that I could work on it. I got sidetracked by Christmas but hustled after Christmas to finish it.

And it will give me a really nice piece of fabric to use from something else. :) :) Win, win...right?

:oops: OK, so what's a "fatback"?

I was a late starter on the UFO projects:))I started in November:0)I have 3 done!! And, just a few left. I am going to keep going until even my projects that I have stashed fabrics for are done:))So, at the end of this year I will be so saaaad about the lack of projects, I will have to do it again:))That buying and stacking thing:))I still have 3 BOM's that I need to catch up...detailed ones:))I did finish 2 of my other ones. If I had that amazing quilting machine w/frame here, I just know I could keep caught up:))LOL Don't you think?!! I'm just sure of it!:))Skeat.........who had to turn my head and hold it that direction w/my hand when asked by my LQS if I wanted to do the black and white and 30's BOM!! I soooo could...:))but, didn't!Pulled myself out of that store scratching and scream'n out the door;)

funny Gail :) I will do my best to stick to that goal!

I made a list of projects for the year. I have 11 "Must do", 2 "if I have to", 5 wips- stuff I cut out but didn't like so I set aside, this includes the 2 I am working on right now- can that be classified as UFO?, hmmmm. Then I have the list of 5- "whenever, they haven't asked lately" projects I have the fabric for but haven't started.

It's supposed to snow tomorrow- 3 to 6 inches. I figure I can finish the 2 I'm working on and sandwich and quilt 2 wips. That will make a lot of stuff crossed off the list. Cool.

My goal is to FINISH this list by March. A lot of them I know I can do easily, but need to find the time. (Gosh- I certainly hope people stop having babies, too- that messes up the project list- j/k)
