OK...time to commit or be committed! I'm joining this bunch of busy bees because I have a pile of UFOs and a bunch of new ones that I want to start. Going to force myself to finish at least 5 before I jump into my Christmas gifts!
Here's my accountability list:

Blue & white blocks from Boom 7...needs basted and quilted
Batik Blocks from another Boom of Aprils...blocks only
My Dancing Cranes Quilt from a Round Robin here on the QB...needs basted and quilted
Brown & Teal lap quilt...blocks only
Christmas throw..left over from Christmas...ready to FMQ

Santa brought me a new Bernina (a 530)..and it was on backorder, so I am saving the ones that need quilted until she gets here...sometime this month! I am so excited! It was a gift from the Doctor I Nanny for!

I vote for that, ops, I forgot, I'm suppose to encourage completion of UFO's. I have to remember, Stay on tract, stay on track.

Fyi, I'm working on Bonnie's mystery and didn't get to a UFO this month. I did get almost finished on a tie wallhanging. I also started 3 more projects in January. 2 of these projects will take me a full year to complete.

Ok I'm game! The King quilt I'm working on right now has been waiting to be quilted through 3 moves now and I'm finally quilting it. I also have a table runner that needs basted and quilted.

LOL. Making new UFOs is my favorite thing to do. Which is why I am a perennial member of this thread. :D

Excellent, Janice!! Looks good to me!

Go, minibarn! I look forward to seeing the pictures!

Love the finishes I'm seeing on this thread. Although I don't have any finishes for January, I did quilt 6 tops on the Bailey in the past two weeks so they are ready for the binding. That is my February goal: to completely finish the quilted tops. (January's goal was to quilt at least 5, so I'm happy with my progress). I have four more to quilt and then I'm going to push Bailey back up against the wall again for a couple of months while finish the ones I've quilted. I'm beginning to feel like the little train that could.

Well UFO'ers this is the first time I've was away for a couple days and come back and there is no finishes. We must be getting ready for the January totals.

Happylab (pg 37; 364) That staying on track is hard for me also. Trying hard to keep my featherweights humming.

Belfrybat (pg 37: 369) Push on down those tracks you are making progress.

Happy Groundhog day and make it a good sewing day everyone.
