    I have a few UFO's as well. I finish projects all the time, but I still get more started than I do finished. I have done a couple of BOM's and really need to get the blocks put together. I also have a picture wall hanging that I am working on. Then there are the quilts! Yes, I think this group will be good therapy for me. Thanks! Great job Wildyard!

    Thumbs up

    This sounds like a group I need to be involved in. I have several UFO's I need to get finished up. The only non-UFO is a baby quilt I need to make, so I will focus on getting those UFO's done.

    Thanks for the encouragement.

    Welcome everyone!!! Boyyyy that train whistle is blowing...woooooooooowoooooooo!!!!!!
    I think it's important not to let the UFOs take over your quilting life. Don't deprive yourself of a new beginning now and then, but don't let that new quilt become another UFO. That's why we set our goal at 1 a month.
    I suggest reconsidering if you are telling yourself you must finish all your UFOs before starting anything new. We want this to still be fun, not a punishment. LOL

    Thanks Wildyard for starting this and inspiring me to "just do it" finish some UFO's.

    Very nice PokerDiva like that pattern.I have so many ufo's that I would need to do three or four a month to get them done in a year. I am going to try to do two before I start one . Do kits that I have not open yet count as a ufo I hope not if they do I am sunk Plus my mother gave me to more for xmas and two new quilting books. Oh I need more time.

    I made a resolution this year that I will finish one UFO in between every new quilt that I want to do...my only mistake was starting with a new project! LOL...but I do plan to seriously give it a chance. I figure even the ones that I don't want to keep, I can donate, and it will make me feel so good to get them done and out of my sewing room!
