Well at the first of the year I had 6 to finish...but the problem is I have 6 more quilts waiting in the wings. One is a commission piece for a college student, one a memory quilt for my sister in law, one a gift for my husband, and three are wedding gifts. The deadlines for those are May 17th, whenever, July 11th, September 13th, December 21st and one unknown that may spill over into next year...so I HAVE to to get these UFOs off my table to so my incoming works can replace them!

Narnian: Well my UFOs are more like fourteen with no deadlines so I guess I am lucky, except my kids have all placed dibbs on their favorites. I keep telling them that I will be a better quilter as I go along so the last quilt will be the best. Not sure they agree but may keep my son in place because he got the first one.

Oksewglad, those are so cute! I have been working on some NICU items as well - receiving blankets, crocheted hats and quilts. I remember going to visit our GS and having a cheery new quilt or a cute new hat, it really brightened our day!

My UFO to Hotmess
I started this one a number of years ago. Started hand quilting it but had issues and finally required surgery on a thumb joint. This sat FOREVER, picked it up again and decided to finish it on the machine. It was a very early project and I had no idea what I was doing. So last week it finally went from UFO to a Hot Mess, lol.

That is beautiful! I have always wanted to do a quilt like that...I just can't decide on colors. So far I want a pink one a green one and purple one....
And at last here is my longest running UFO complete! Just wrapped it up this morning. Pic still has the unsnipped threads, but it is done and ready to go!

Narnianquilter-your quilt is pretty. Are the ladybugs appliqued on?

Louise - I just love the Irish Chain & yours is no exception! It's lovely.
Narian - Such a sunshiny quilt. So bright & cheerful.
And another one's down, and another one's down, and another one bites the dust!
