Allspots! Nice to see you back here with a wonderful UFO finish. Love the fabrics and colors. You may have had difficulties with it but it looks like you overcame them. Congratulations and TOOT, TOOT!

The blocks weren't difficult, but I apparently chose fabrics that just did not want to work together and easily became distorted. Glad to call this one D.O.N.E!

I will soon have a finish (hopefully!). I need to make a label and attach it and fix a small seam that looks like it may come undone.
I have also started quilting another quilt. That may take most of the month....or longer!

Allspot #1210, that a great finish, glad see you back, hoping to see what you are working on now.
Janice, I asked in a earlier post, but maybe you explained your picture of your new icon, I must have missed it? I know we are all busy with trying to get these UFO off the table and really don't have time to repeat ourselves. Just curious. Trying to prep a vintage motif of a top that is one those charity quilts. Once again that's another story.
Happy sewing everyone

Anne - your garlic knots quilt is quite striking. I really like the design.
Allspots - your quilt is very nice. And I can imagine it was a pain to go together with all those small pieces.
I have three finishes. These were easy in that I had already quilted them so just needed to finish the binding. It always feels so good to have a quilt completely finished!
The blue lattice was made at a quilt retreat in 2014 from blue squares left on the free table. I snatched them up and made this easy quilt.
Bright Stars and the Teal scrappy were Mystery Train quilt rides led by Judy on this board. They are several years old -- 2 or 3 at least.
