Beautiful finish Krisb! Is it a UFO? Just asking since Happylab mentioned we didn’t have any June finishes yet...
I’m working on another set of three trivets that will count as June UFOs.... but June is shaping up to be very busy, so don’t know if I’ll be able to get any other UFOs completed.

June may be tough to get a UFO finish. I have lots to get done on customers. If I finish my daughters horse quilt, we can consider that. Hoping to finish up my rabbit trails.

Congratulations May finishes!!!
I donated the blocks I found in the pizza block to a church quilt group. I just couldn't get enthused to work with brown fabric. They loved them and probably already whipped out a donation quilt. So, officially, I have no UFO's. I am binding my SBS tomorrow....I finished the FMQ today....and, last week, started on a Jen Kingwell pattern. Lots of applique....and so not brown...lol! Think I'm going to save the Baltimore Album quilt for next year's big project.

Krisb, those dragonflies are amazingly beautiful!
'Voluntold.' Ha! That's a good one MadQuilter!

I wish I could get to my UFOs and finish them up. I am scheduling July to work on them when back from vacation. I am planning on finishing all my customer quilts before I leave so I can have a clean slate when I come home. Will be working on the row by row quilt to turn in while on vacation, I get to take the sewing machine with me. Maybe I will bring one of those ufo projects with me, hmmm, let me think, on that. I have 15 or so just to quilt. Yes, I am still dealing with the foot issues and it is not happy with me at all, but a girl has to do what a girl has to do. Now to get the rest of the garden planted since hubby gave me the ok to do so. Long story, but it works.

That will feel good to get the customer quilting done before vacation. I hear ya.....love it when I get home to a clean slate or a different phase of a WIP. Good to have goals. Enjoy your vacation....My suggestion is to just take a fresh new project with you and leave UFO's behind. Vacations deserve exploring your creativity, too, with fresh ideas. You'll get to the UFO's eventually because you are focused to do it... Have a wonderful trip and hope the foot issue doesn't impede on you having a restful and fun trip...happy planting....

Those blocks count as a finish since they are no longer on your UFO pile! So congratulations on a (May? June?) finish. Let Happylab know so she can add them to the total!

Thanks Teen. I am going to do the row by row while on vacation in Montana. I have it all mapped out for our drive there. It may take us 10 hours to get to the cabin, but I will hit nine quilt shops on the way there. Should be lots of fun.
