    I'm not counting, Fraew.....it's a beauty..... just love it.

    I'm one that can't seem to get one a month done. There are too many interruptions and too many people wanting me to do this or that..... but getting them done does feel great. And now mine is packed away to move back down to the winter house.... so, maybe next week I'll be able to get back at it.

    This is from Boom 5 blocks...it became a Comfort Quilt for a church member. It is my October finish....I may have another UFO done this month because I am spending this weekend at my son's lake house. If I don't get busy cooking and cleaning for him! he is single and lives alone...and some habits are hard to break! Like doing "Mom" things!

    Ok, my husband is out of town until Sunday evening and I am stuck in the house with a 2 year old and a 5 month old. And my sewing machine. Here they are!

    UFO started in January- finally finished and delivered: [ATTACH=CONFIG]442113[/ATTACH]

    Pieced a custom order:[ATTACH=CONFIG]442114[/ATTACH]
    Pieced my quilt (fabric has been sitting for a while now): [ATTACH=CONFIG]442115[/ATTACH]
    Began a Star Trek quilt for a wedding gift: [ATTACH=CONFIG]442116[/ATTACH]

    And made my 2 year old a Star Trek Dress for the wedding: [ATTACH=CONFIG]442118[/ATTACH]

    That's it so far! The big one was the first one with the photos, but I am glad progress is happening!

    That's good progress for anyone. With a 2 old and 5 yr old present it ranks right up there with amazing. By the way, way to make trekkie fabric look classy for the wedding.

    Thanks Foxflower! The bride and groom are BIG trekkies (she even has a Star Trek engagement ring) so I thought the quilt and the dress would be perfect!

    Fraew---very pretty quilt!

    Missqigglewings--nice job with the sampler blocks

    Narniaquilter--you've made good progress this month. I like the photo quilt.

    I had a retreat this weekend and finished my quilt for the month...started by DS when he was 10. Someone at the retreat will be sending me the picture. It's pretty big so I had help holding it up.

    Looking forward to seeing your "co-op" quilt Carrie.

    Great finishes everyone!
    I'm not even sure which month I made it to, but I did get some done back the first part of the year. Then got sidetracked by a comfort quilt for a friend (which she hugs me for whenever I see her) and also got involved in swaps in the summer and and fall and have been lucky to get those done on schedule.
    But I did get some done and some one step farther along (ie sandwiched &/or quilting started) so I have made progress. And that's the name of the game!
