I am not sure if I can call this a UFO or not? Two years go I started a sashed and corner stoned quilt simple blocks. I had a color way picked but after making three blocks it was not working for me so I switched my neutral out. The original three blocks I thought would make an Ok table runner and set it aside with the thought to make them into one. I pulled the out two days ago after my sister nicely asked for more table runners lol and put them together added the borders and now its basted to quilt this weekend.
So UFO or not? Not what the blocks were intended for but just I thought of what I might do with them someday to get them out of my orphan block stack. I also took five other orphan patriotic blocks and putting them together as well as a runner. I like to quilt several projects at one time if I can and will be doing these with the two UFO quilts.

Anything that gets something off the unfinished pile into a finished piece is completing a UFO for me. Sometimes blocks need to have some time to decide what they want to be.

Ha ha Madquilter, agreed!
Here is a finish. I bought this kit a few years back, worked on the embroidery and got stuck on how to finish it. Just could not get the top assembled. With Annaquilts help, it is done. Yippeee! She helped me assemble the top. Totally completed even the binding. Ready for quilt show.
Then I have the Crazy Star loaded on the longarm. This one is seven years old. Here is to finishing it by Saturday.
