The larger one is a 17.5" square dresden block that I pieced pieced as part of Amy Gibson's 2012 block of the month over on Craftsy, and then decided I didn't like the fabrics I'd chosen so it ended up on the UFO pile in Dec. of 2012-- I'm thinking I'll use it as a table topper :D.

Anyone working on a finish today? Not me, I'm working on getting my new swap set up and making sure I don't miss any UFO finishes. I'm about to submit the new 2017 UFO challenge thread. When it's posted, I'll share the link here. All 2017 finishes should go there, and any 2016 finishes here.
Wow. 2017 is just around the corner now... |
Not me stuck at work just hope not to many pieces to pick up today and overnight.

I just finished making binding in preparation for my first 2017 finish. I had 12 finishes for 2016, 10 of them were UFOs. That's huge for me.
Happy New Year all! |
I don't have anything close enough to squeeze in another finish. BUT I will sew into the New Year. Did that last year too with DH and the cat hanging out in the comfy chair.

Fraew, it IS a huge accomplishment. . Congratulations and Toot, Toot for your terrific and final 2016 finish!

I'm done for 2016. I did a quick guestimmate of the UFOs I've still got in the pile and it's probably between 30 and 40--I guess that will give me plenty to choose from for 2017 LOL.
Happy New Year everyone. Rob |
Fraew 12 in one year is amazing!

Here's the link to the new 2017 UFO Challenge:
http://www.quiltingboard.com/quiltin...h-t284858.html Please go on over and start posting your name, number of UFOs and goals for 2017 if you wish. All finishes starting tomorrow will go there. Who will have 2017's first finish? See you there tomorrow. Happy New Year! |
So many, so wonderful pictures! I can't compete with that, I didn't even get my one done. Should have, tried to but both of my machines do not like quilting these last two blocks. I'm giving up and will do them by hand. I don't think the baby will mind. I will join you all next year. You got me back in the sewing, I won't leave you yet!
