In a Boomerang swap you send out fabric from YOUR stash to the other participants who add fabric from THEIR stash and make a block that they send back to you. You in turn will get fabrics from all the others and make them each a block from their fabric and some from your stash. When all the blocks have been returned, everyone has a bunch of sampler blocks that are unified by the original fabric.

Toot, Toot Jaba! Love your Boom 14 finish! I always enjoy seeing how the different blocks look together. Thanks for sharing!
And we continue rolling along!

I haven't checked in for a while, because I have been working on non-UFO projects. The good news is that I finished one UFO quilt last week after I finally found a back for it. Unfortunately, I don't have a good picture to upload.
Last week, I gave away 4 of my UFOs for others to finish in my charity group. It was hard for me to give them up, but it is liberating to have less projects which, for me, is why I joined this support group.
I currently have 3 UFOs waiting to be pinned and quilted. But I have been working on graduation gifts/baby gifts/mother's day quilts, so I may not get them done until after May.
I love seeing all of the finishes. The amount of projects being finished this year is fantastic!

Number 200 and beyond!!!
Congratulations, Silliness, you just pulled us up to a total of 201 for the year so far! Rooty TOOT TOOT! You finished one and gave away 4 others. Those given away do count as finishes so you've added 5 finishes to our total. Excellent.

Jaba, great quilts and I love the batiks, but then again I am partial to batiks. Like someone else said, when do you just relax?
Silliness, congratulations on your finishes.
As I look out my window and see the tree buds popping I have the realization that my UFO's completed will come to a huge slow down, if not halt. It seems like the nice weather and trips always tears me away from the sewing room. I had the idea of gathering together all my small unfinished projects and getting them to the stage of hand work so when I do travel that I can take them along with me to work on while at the airport.
