Hi everyone! Between moving, 3 surgeries, moving again, vacations, traveling to watch two of my grandchildren play softball
(one at Univ of Kentucky and one at St Louis University) and a few other sidelines, I am finally back. I love this forum and
will list my projects in a few days. Meanwhile, happy sewing to you all.

Welcome back jaydee3, Looking forward to your finished projects. The hot weather is a great time to stay inside and quilt.

Well, I got the QOV top quilted. Now working on quilting 3 baby tops for a friend. Then back to my projects. Yea, slowly making progress.

I’m sitting at my dining room table and watching the birds eat the bird seed together. In the last 5 minutes i have seen black birds, turtle doves, sparrows, and starlings drop by. In the morning I see a few cardinal, and robins searching for worms in the grass. It’s amazing to watch different bird species eating side by side. So relaxing.

Oh, it’s now time to push getting several of my ufo finished. I plan to finish the following by end of June.
(1) Labs going hunting = just needs squared and bind. (2) small chiefs quillow = needs pillow portion quilted and then sew pillow on to quilt. (3) lock-in 2020 = needs square & sew on binding. (4). Halloween 👻 quilt = need - borders sewn, quilted and bind. And lastly, (5) finish r/w/blk quilt = need to sew 3 blocks, sew squares together and sew on borders. Quilt and bind. Then it’s on to July projects. I have 11 days to do all of this.

Happylab, you amaze me! I am wondering if your days are longer than 24 hours! Go for it and I wish you well!

Good morning everyone. Such a nice morning. We had overnight thunderstorms and the much needed rain.

FYI: Today is National UFO day. So let’s get working on, or finish a UFO, or a few ufo projects. I would like to see the finished UFOs.

Happy 4th of July weekend everyone.

Ok, I see we need a UFO challenge for this month. Let’s see if we can complete 2 UFO’s for the month of August. That gives us 31 days to get 2 off our list. Come on our ufo members, let’s get flying to complete those ufo’s. 😊!!!

I’m in. Great idea. I’m in need of motivation.

Oh, happylab, you are funny! I am in! My current pile of unfinished projects aren't really UFO's. I will try to dig out a UFO or two to add to my pile. Interesting that the leader of my quilting group put out the same challenge! Great minds think alike I guess.

Come on everyone, jump in and let's finish some of our UFOs! Keep in mind that a finish makes more room for other projects, fabric and ..... UFO's Ha Ha Ha!

I'm going to put 2 on the August challenge for myself.
1) my nephew just needs a label and binding and
2) I have a QOV that I need to short out the backing, quilt and bind.

I've got some casual stitching that I want to finish so that the top is done and ready to quilt after I do those 2.

I've got two near completion. One needs a binding and the other needs me to finish quilting, add borders, and bind. I'm sure I can finish by the end of the month. Thanks for the challenge!
