Where are the pictures?

I'm doing the same thing you are. Get them done! Each one has a number now and as I finish the top I'm posting it for everyone to see That I did It. Sort of my reward! Keep going girl!

peace

WOW, good for you!

Yahoo! for you, Polly. Do you have a future project lined up and waiting for when you finish the UFO's?

Good for you! It always feels like such a great accomplishment to finish them all up. I did that a few weeks ago. I have a table where I stack my UFOs so they are never out of sight (out of mind). Of course I now have 3 more quilt tops that I have done since then, which need sandwiching and quilting on the long arm. I did finish 2 table runners yesterday, and am about half done with my 19 pillowcases I am making for charity; will finish them today. I will always have UFOs sitting around because I make several quilt tops at a time, then I can quilt them on the long arm one after the other. Then I bind them all at the same time too.

I'm in the same boat. Boy is it satisfying to be knocking them out! Congrats on the finishes!

When you get yours done. Will you please come to my house. I need the help. Putting on the binding to 4 quilts is giving me a pain in you know where. I wish you the best luck on getting them all done.

WOW! I have too many to count and some new need always takes precedence and another UFO falls in line. To date I have only completed one throw for myself. Oh well.......I love giving gifts, what can I say. My time will come eventually.

Go, Go, Go! If I can do it, so can you! I didn't actually CLEAN the sewing room, but I did get two stacks cleaned out and eliminated this week. It wasn't actually sewing things. I've also got scrapbooking and home office in there. It was home office things I cleared away. Still have the shredding to do, but the area is clear. If I can just stick to it..........

And just as I clean out or store things, I buy more fabric. Now I've got more rolled on bolts waiting to be put away. It's a non-ending battle. I think about the FlyLady often who says 15 minutes a day.

And as far as UFOs go, I tend to finish up what is most necessary and then work BACKWARDS leaving the oldest UFOs behind.
