This sounds just what I need I love starting a new project but the finishing is backing up. I have 6 quilts to finish 1 wall hanging and a couple of challenges from the board. I think that qualifies me Wildyard I love the colours in your quilt what a clever little girl your GD is to help.

Well I am not the best in getting UFOs done but I sure have enough of them that need to be done. So here I am, ready for another year.

Oh Wildyard, that's just sooooo cute!

I'm in! I sure hope that I can do more this year. I do have a couple o' baby quilts that are not UFO's but need ta be made. Preferably before the babies are born. One is due in Feb & the other is due in March. I also think I'll try ta do a Pony Club block every other week. I hope I can do more, but I do have other things ta git done too. The first UFO that I need ta do isn't my UFO. I got some QSYG SBS blocks that the late DM, o' a coworker, o' my DH, had done. I also have made a goal o' makin' 11 twin quilts for the residents that are at the Assisted Living Facility that DMIL used ta be at. She may be gone, but I had planned ta make these before she passed. They are a modified jellyroll race pattern. I use 5" x 22"strips. I've got 6 o' these tops made. I'm still workin' on my Quilt Story BOM. I only have half o' those blocks done & had hoped ta have it done by Mother's Day for my DM. Both o' my DSis's quilts need ta be quilted. I have several charity quilts that need ta be finished. I have a butterfly wallhangin' that I hope ta git done for DDIL's birthday on June 5. I also need ta work on my Cousin's stamp quilt. I've decided ta make it completely different than I had originally planed. Gotta git started on it. Do dreams count?? I dreamed about a lovely muslin & brick red Churn Dash, night before last. I can't git it outta my head.


I don't know if ya can call this a UFO or not. DD has been plannin' ta make a twin quilt for DGD but hasn't got it done. She bought fabric for it a long time ago. Well while we were in Brady DD & I talked about makin' sometin' for her while there. We bought fabric & DGD sat in my lap & sewed several o' the squares tagether & DGD planned how they should lay out. I never would have seen this layout. LOL It's all 10" squares.

DD plans on cross hatch quiltin' for it.

I'm in again but hopefully can do better. My big thing this year is NOT to buy anymore fabric unless needed to complete a project.

Okay folks I am in. I have started a New Years Resolution. I will finish two projects before starting a new one. I have so far done that. I would really be afraid to count my UFO's, I just know I have many of them. Many in different levels of completion. I like the idea of finishing one a month. That might be easier but then When do I get to start new one. Anyway I will be here to support those who are in the same boat I am. I do hope it is a big one cause I don't want us sinking. I am thinking a cruise ship would be good.

I am finishing one that has turned out horrible. It is a QAYG but I was using up scraps that were not the same size and didn't take adequate care in keeping backing from slipping. Will finish it and pass it on to someone with a pet that needs a blankie! Lesson learned...slow down and pin more!

I've already started for this year. I'm working on a D9P that I've been working on forever. I want this darn thing done and out of my hair. Wish me luck. I'm soooo tired of working on this thing. But if I stop, I'm afraid I'll never start again.

I am working on some blocks for a swap and then will be finishing my "Rosie" quilt...all the blocks are done and sashing is on, just need to assemble/quilt....I do mostly QAYG by the row. I might have a chance to sew this afternoon, but probably not until Monday.

I have a 1 UFO, that has been quilted and just needs binding that has been sitting for 4 years, 1 Jelly roll race that I sewed New Years Day and it needs borders and backing. 2 patterns with fabric that I have not started for table runners and a 4th of July wall hanging. Oops found my mom's box of maple leaves to organize and sew into a king size quilt. So I guess that I am in! I need to get them all done before I start another project. Maybe I should not have looked in that closet!
