    Lara122-don't be so hard on yourself. I think we all have projects that we are not ultimately happy with. My thoughts, put them aside and move on! You accomplished a lot for the month. Back away from the seam ripper....

    Krista: Your quilts are beautiful. I just love the first one, the quilting really emphasises the shapes.
    Robbi: Guessed from your list of to dos that you have a baby in your future, I know, I am a real brain trust. Congrads and have fun. Baby things are so sweet.
    Lara: You need a talking to. Everyone does things that turn out not to be quite what they hoped. I really like your "Kindergarten Star". If your sewing area allows I would put it on the wall, I think its great. Every single thing you do makes you a better quilter. Its the journey not the destination.

    Great finishes. I am still on schedule with my March UFO.

    Hello All. I help with coordinating donated quilts and recipients herein the UK for ProjectLinus. Lara - you can be assured that quilts that you are not happy with will be loved in a new home. Older children don't want pretty pretty quilts but love the idea that someone has made it. We find good homes for everything. Mind you, it would look pretty good in my conservatory.......
    My current ugly UFO project is showing no sign of improvement but I will finish it!

    This is finally completed. It was a RR on this board in 2010/2011. It is called Cosmic Dreams and now will go in my grandangel's big-boy room. He picked it out of my UFO bin himself...incentive for me to get it done! I love the work the members of this RR put into it...absolutely gorgeous!
    Its big, so I couldn't get a really good picture.
