is it really a UFO if you are waiting for your learning curve to kick in before you finish it ? When i finsh the GFG this year there will have been five generations (eight people)that have worked on it. Yes, I have it all written down including the info. that was on the back of the blocks and will be covered by batting and backing.

My very first quilt... Log Cabin. I think it's 21 or 22 years old. Yikes! I'm not even sure where it is now come to think of it! :oops:

well if any one get theirs done let us all know we would love to see it

You win, but mine is still in pieces with only a few squares sewn together. I doubt if I will ever finish it as it just not my style. I don't know what I was thinking when I picked out the fabric.

Mine is a log cabin that is at least 15 years old. I swear to finish it this year now that I am retired (two months ago).

Well let's see...I started a hand pieced "apple core" when my son was still in high school and he is 31 now. I'm close to getting it finished but don't know how to hand quilt so I may do that part on the machine.

king size quilt, one and a half years old, that I have 2/3 of the blocks done. I can't seem to get started again. I am having too much fun doing small projects.

It took me 10 years to finish my daughter's graduation quilt. I must have been dreaming when I began hand piecing and hand quilting a lone star for her, while I was working full time and going to college at night!
Sometimes months went by and I never touched it--too busy. Then a vacation would come and I would work on it a lot. We do what we can. My thought is, if we hate the project, we should give it away or change it or throw it out. Life is too short. If we like the project, we should finish it. It's not a race; it's a process. Just keep plugging away at it and bit by bit, it comes together. And it's a really good feeling. |
