UFO's / For Baby / Memories
 
5 Attachment(s)
Hi Everyone!

I have been, at the request of DH, working on finishing up some UFO's. Here are two that I have finished in the past 2 weeks. Both for my sons (For #1 - The Lizards been a UFO for a couple of years now, for #3 - Minecraft - he didn't have to wait but a year for his.)

The 2 baby quilts were also finished in the past couple of weeks. The elephant one was made from left over Ooops Blocks when I made a large elephant quilt for a couple of newlyweds (I worked with the bride). They had their first child in February so I decided to make a somewhat matching quilt for miss Rose using those ooops blocks. The I-Spy quilt for Bentley is for his 1st birthday (which is today). I will give it to mom this weekend along with a deck of cards I made using the blocks in the quilt so he will have a matching game he can play as he grows.

Last but not least are pillows I made with the leftover remnants from a T-Shirt memory quilt I finished last month. Dad got the memory quilt, these pillows went to the four daughters.

I have been busy and still a lot to do on my UFO list so ... back to work. Thanks for stopping by and having a look.

You have been busy. They are all bright and cheerful quilts.

All are fine. I especially like the elephant. Good luck on the UFOs. Maybe I could send you some of mine.

Well done. Yipee!! That's awesome you have these all done. They are all so different. I bet feels great to have these done. :thumbup: The elephant quilt is my favorite. I'm not a big fan of Minecraft. But, it came out excellent!!

sinceresissy 07-20-2016 04:11 AM

Great quilts. I love the elephant one and I love the square in square or the first one. Really great colors. Can't wait to see more of your quilts.

nls 07-20-2016 04:17 AM

Love them all, but really love the mine craft, did you have a pattern for that one? Great finishes!!

fatsewcat 07-20-2016 08:57 AM

Thank you all for the kind words. I like getting feedback. I'd do this all day everyday if it weren't for work. I have two in repair and one that is going on the frame tomorrow so I will have more to share soon.

JoyjoyMarie 07-20-2016 09:04 AM

Nice quilts all, but I am IN LOVE with the elephant one!

brandeesmom 07-20-2016 02:25 PM

Wow, you have definitely completed a boat load of beautiful quilts and pillows! High five's to you!

Mariposa 07-20-2016 04:31 PM

Congrats on all the fun finishes! You've been very busy! :)

redquilter 07-20-2016 04:46 PM

Everything is wonderful. Great work.

QuiltnNan 07-20-2016 05:09 PM

nicely done

GailG 07-20-2016 07:19 PM

All great, but that one with BENTLEY blows my mind. It must have taken careful planning to get the blocks to fall in place all right side up.

Painiacs 07-20-2016 07:27 PM

They are all great but love 1st one!! Good feeling to get UFOS done!!

heather1949 07-20-2016 08:50 PM

Lots of beautiful things you have made :)

jmoore 07-21-2016 02:36 AM

Great way to finish up some of your UFO's...fun projects. Keep up the good work!

twinkie 07-21-2016 03:44 AM

Busy quilter. Now that I am retired, I am going to have to tackle the stack of UFO's. Good job.

Karamarie 07-21-2016 04:09 AM

Great UFO finishes. Sometimes we need a little push to complete them - thanks to your hubby.

dinlauren 07-21-2016 04:58 AM

OMG!!! Such cute quilts. I love, love, love the elephant one and the Bently quilt so much. Also the eye spy one is very unique....such a cute idea to make pieces to match the baby quilt so it can "grow" as the baby grows. Such wonderful projects. So glad you finished them. Can't wait to see more UFO's!

Taughtby Grandma 07-21-2016 05:16 AM

Isn't it wonderful seeing all of these completed. They are all fabulous!

mac 07-21-2016 08:08 AM

Good for you for finishing up some UFO's. Sometimes we just need a push to get things done. They look wonderful.

I do believe that "done is better than perfect," however, I get bogged down sometimes with too many choices and someone like me, who probably has ADHD, I sometimes tend to lose interest.

dove1615 07-21-2016 11:29 AM

I love #1. What is the name of the pattern? You have been very productive! Good for you and all the recipients!!!

ccthomas 07-21-2016 04:47 PM

Nice quilts finished.

kaylfordsollimo 07-21-2016 08:28 PM

You've been a busy lady. Bet it feels good to check these off your list.

The pattern is "Thinking outside of the box". It has felt good to knock some of the ones sitting around off the list.

I had to laugh when I read your post because that is EXACTLY how I am. I can get all excited about starting a new project and in the middle of it I get this new and awesomely fantastical idea for my next quilt to the point that I get the top I am working on finished so I can get the new and awesomely fantastical idea started in one way or another. So it becomes never ending.

They are all so beautiful - what a variety! Thanks for sharing.
