    I'm in! I have 20 tops completed that have been sleeping in a drawer...this may be the way to give them a voice!

    OMG! when I read "drawer" in your post I realized I have 1 (or maybe 3) tucked in a drawer that I did years ago & just keep forgetting about! I better pull them out this morning or they'll sit there another few years. :lol:

    I'm still working on a UFO from H___.
    Every time I touch it something seams to go wrong. Sewed three rows together last night and ripped out two this morning. This was a "fun and done" pattern :lol: that has not been fun and is not done. :-( It is going to be one row shorter than planned so I can finish and be onto the next UFO. Will post when finished.

    I'd love to join. In fact I just finished one this week. Can I count it for January? I was working on it for an internet friend of my daughters and he was scheduled to come meet us in person this past weekend. Had to finally make myself get busy and "get er done". Finished the morning he arrived.

    Here is the center section of my DGS's orange stars quilt. It's not all sewn together yet, but the first 4 rows are sewn together across. I see that I need to reverse one section as two of the squares are too much alike on the upper right.
    Next will come a 3" orange border, then a 1 1/2 or 2" black border, then a 4" pieced with all the fabrics border, then finally bound in black, if I have enough. The backing will be orange fleece.

    this is all of the center section

    Welcome aboard. Sounds to me that it should count for Jan. It is finished and it is lovely and colorful. What pattern did you use?
