I am working on a round for a round robin. Almost done. So for me it counts as a finish because I get to send it on. Sometimes small achievements are also appreciated.

Here's my finish ......... This little ufo is from a pocket patchwork sew-along done by Pam Buda. It is made from 1 1/2 inch squares, unfinished. Its size is 21 X 11.

opps ...... forgot to add that in Pam's version, she used flying geese to separate the two sides. I just switched things up a bit and made diamonds instead.

Just a little clarification. We post our UFOs here, not just "finishes". UFOs are incomplete projects, ones that perhaps have been overlooked or ignored for a long time, usually at least 12 months or more. I believe our longest term UFO so far this year has been almost 20 years old. So while we celebrate all quilting finishes, only those that are UFOs belong here. (I rec'd an email from someone who wished me to clarify what a UFO is and what she can post.) And when you do post a UFO finish, please mark it as a UFO Finish. Thanks and I hope that helps!

It has been over a year since I started it and I have had nothing but problems with it. Every single step along the way had multiple issues. It should have taken no more than 10 hours to complete and it took over 100. But it is finally done.

August final numbers are in. Since my last mid-August tally post, we had another 6 finishes by Kele, Juanita Bean, silliness, rryder and oksewglad to round out August with 19 total finishes. Toot, Toot to each of you for keeping this train moving forward, despite the summer slow-down. Thank you!
Our tally for 2016 through August is 327 UFO finishes. Wow. Way to go everyone!
