2017 UFO Challenge of the Month
#1971
Topper1, you just did! Feel free to post your UFOs as you finish them. Generally speaking, this board is for UFOs that have been sitting around a while, somewhat forgotten or ignored, for a year or more. When you finish one, let us know. .

Oksewglad, that's an an inspiration I needed! If we take something apart and decide to use it in a different quilt, that's not a UFO - it's a new start, right? I have several that were put aside because I didn't like the direction they were headed, but the blocks apart from the whole might not look so hopeless. So as soon as I can get a free hour or ten (next year, probably) they will have an appointment with the seam ripper.

You get the idea.
Even if you donate the UFO (in whatever state it's in) to your guild... or Goodwill... it's not in your pile anymore, therefore, it's no longer a UFO.
That's my story and I'm sticking to it!!

If they are no longer, that'll work for me. Congrats on lowering your UFO stack. Toot, Toot!
FYI, oksewglad's "finish" brings us to 279 for the year. Can we get to 300??? Anyone have any small UFOs out there? All of mine are larger now so I don't have any in the running. Maybe some of you do...

I can probably get a couple more trivets done and there might be some table toppers in my UFO pile.. will look and see later today or maybe tomorrow if I can get back into my studio...right now am being extremely queasy from the percocet they gave me for eye pain after yesterday’s eye surgery. Took a percocet at 7 am and am trying to avoid taking another. Glad I only had one eye done...

Well this a UFO that I started at the first of the year that put away until about a month and a half ago. It's for my adult grandson who is the baby of the group and he asked for certain things in his quilt and I tried to get it in. I'm taking it to him next week.

I thinking I can get 2 - 4 projects done by the end of the year. I have a table runner to quilt, a pink quilt to bind, a BHMQ top maybe finished, and if I can find it another small wall hanging. For sure 2 projects. I’ll get to work on these projects.

Woot!!
Another UFO completed... although I'm pretty sure I read the directions wrong somewhere...
It's supposed to be a cosmetic bag or some such.
