Connie, I can understand you completely, the two quilts that I really want to finish I have not touch at all. One of the two I want to have professionally machine embroidered and the other I just can't decide on a backing. This is only March maybe later in the year. On with the one that I am working with, plan on finishing it by May.

Thank you Rob for your congratulations on my March finish and soon we will get a post.

That melting lacing thing sound interesting I look forward to seeing it. Great finishes you guys. I have in my head to finally finish The Mullet today, everything that could go wrong has, the machine messed up, got it fixed, the batting wasn't right, fixed it, the thread in the machine was all wrong, but didn't notice until I had everything exactly where I wanted it, then had to disturb everything to wind bobbin and put correct thread, get everything settled again. Finally got back to sewing on it almost to the end of the first 70 inch strip and it is 1.5 inches to short!!!!!!! I measured and measured it. This may drive me to drink in the morning!!!!

Well this is new for me. I have been a member since I think 2010 but have never posted a picture.

Just finished one of my 2917 UFO's and my SIL's father seems to like it. Thanks for your patience.

Great job Bug Lady. Love the brickwork. You did great on your colors.

Kassaundra, Unfortunately you are correct. Feels like a million more to go. Thanks.

I’m late! It took you guys a while to get over here to the Pacific Northwest LOL

As I strolled through the coach looking for an empty seat, I saw some terrific finishes! You quilters rock as you roll!

I'm taking a ruler work class this coming weekend and hope it will inspire me to finish more of these projects.

Apparently the UFOs are not limited to quilts? I did see a poncho … In that spirit, I’ll go ahead here and list my UFOs from all previous years (I do keep a list)…and I have noted which ones I have completed this year...

*UFOs from 2009 and prior:
~~2 Watercolor quilts [from class (DD#1 made one of them) . . . I want to add appliqué flowers and make them into wall hangings for the guest bedroom]
~~Knit purse][just needs lining and maybe a handle and/or closure]
~~David's crochet afghan [Started by DM over 40 years ago]

*UFOs from 2010:
~~Hide & Seek Quilt

*UFOs from 2011:
~~Monthly “chats” CCS motifs ][This may soon become a TOAD (Trashed Object Abandoned in Disgust … although not really in disgust. It’s just that it was originally planned as a gift for DD#2, but she has since let me know that CCS doesn’t fit her decorating style. So unless I come up with some great use for these, I don’t really see a need to work to complete them.]

*UFOs from 2012:
~~Moda Terrain quilt & shams

*UFOs from 2013:
~~Teal pinwheel quilt

*UFOs from 2014:
~~Nature’s Harmony CCS for Pillow cover for DD#1

*UFOs from 2016:
~~Growth chart for Julia DONE!
~~Go West quilt for DD#2 DONE!
~~Project Linus quilt
~~Convergence quilt (wall hanging for guest room)
~~Wander quilt (for travel trailer)
~~Grapes table runner

DJ, Oh my! Although after thinking about your list, I still think I have more UFO's than you--it's depressing, but...
