The month of July was a quiet one but some last minute finishes brought us to a total of 13 UFO finishes for the month. They came from Glojean48, Jaba, RetiredTeacher09, Wildyard, Petthefabric, Anne2016, Rryder, SandyinZ4, Sophie2 and Happylab. This brings our year to date tally to 171. Toot, Toot to all of you and to everyone who is working away on their own UFOs. :)

And Sophie2 has two more UFO finishes, the first and second of August. Excellent job of you getting such long term UFO's out of that dreaded UFO drawer! Toot, Toot and Congratulations! These fish remind me of some I saw while snorkeling a long time ago. :)

Yesterday we spend 8 hours driving. Gave me plenty of time to stitch the binding down and add the hanging sleeve to these to wall hangings. I have had them in my stash since the mid 80's. Nice to have more items out of my drawer of UFO's.

Another August finish. I did a lot of machine stitching in June/July knowing that we were going to be traveling and I would need some hand stitching to do. This has been a UFO for a few years. [ATTACH=CONFIG]578052[/ATTACH]

Finished this one. It's a finish but wasn't a UFO. I started it in April. I cut and made all the blocks and then realized that half were to be joined opposite to the other half. Oh my! By the time I had it all straight, I was frustrated and hated all the light color that made up a lot of the top. I shoved it out of sight. I finally finished it. I gave it minimal quilting and put on the binding. It will go to the charity place that takes in women and their children when they decide to leave abusive relationships. It was a free Moda pattern called Frame of Mind.[ATTACH=CONFIG]578058[/ATTACH]

Way to go, Sophie2! Congratulations and Toot, Toot for your UFO finish. It's beautiful!

It's a beautiful finish! Really love all the colors you chose. (I was all set to add it into the tally when i saw it wasn't a UFO although from the sounds of it, it could have been had you not overcome your frustration so quickly. Good for you!)
