I'm going to post my last 2 finishes and then I'll get to look at everyone else's pretty finishes!

Patriotic 9 Patch was started as a QOV project but ended up just shy of their minimum size. I'm really loving this one so might end up keeping it for a summertime throw.

Bright Hopes is from the book "Quilts from the Heart" by Karin Renaud and will be donated to Project Linus.

Fraew- I love both of your finishes! I am wanting to do some Halloween sewing in the worst way... those panels are adorable and I love the orange fabrics you chose to frame your scrappy squares.

Carriem- What a perfect boy quilt... great fabrics!

JM- I love your crisp blue & white Irish Chain - would love to make one someday.

Missqigglewings- Great finish for your sampler blocks!

Narniaquilter-You have been VERY busy! Great job on everything.

My last UFO Finish for October is Thimbleberries Jacob's Ladder. I love this pattern and love Thimbleberries so am thrilled to have this one done and can't wait to get it up on my family room wall! It's from the book "More Nickel Quilts" by Pat Speth and measures 60" square.

I love Jacob's Ladder too, it's so much easier than it looks. Yours is wonderful in those fabrics! Love it!!!

Love the colors in your son's quilt Cariem.
Asimplelife, nice finishes again. That jacob's ladder is so warm. Great QOV also.
Fraiw, that is adorable for Halloween. Nice work and finish for October.
No finishes for me. I have not had time.
Agreed, if we were going to kick anyone out for not finishing a UFO, uh, why else are we even here.

Everyone had such beautiful finishes this month (wait, I mean LAST month). We're getting down to the wire...two more months in 2013. Since I STILL have so many UFO's, I'm hoping we'll start a new UFO "club" in 2014 - it has spurred me on to get more done.

I agree a new thread in 2014 is a great idea. I haven't been quilting as long as some of you so don't have as many UFOs, but a goal of finishing a started quilt (or smaller projects) each month has been a great motivator for me. I will post a pic of this month's project in the sister thread....
