Petthefabric, you are carrying the load for those of us who are just not getting it done for what ever reason.... or excuse.
Thanks for keeping our average up! I am impressed and happy that you are getting you beauties out of the UFO pile. Whoo-Hoo to you!

Well I managed to get my daughter’s birthday quilt finished in the Nick of time- finished the binding Sunday afternoon- her birthday was Monday. Even with a Huge error it turned out great and she loves it. It is really big- much larger than I expected when I planned it ( 104” x 106”)
my 2020 Temperature Quilt- I chose flying geese blocks with the large center triangles being the high temp for the day and the two small corners the low temperature. All 366 blocks were made from scraps the only yardage being the Jinny Beyer border print.
im glad it’s over. Didn’t think I would ever get it finished. So a ( scrap completion and a ufo completion, along with staying true to my fabric moratorium)- the only money I had to spend on this whole quilt was $12 for a yard of binding fabric-

ckcowl, it turned out just beautiful - and you get bonus points for using up scraps!
petthefabric, you are on a ROLL! Love your furrows quilt.
I was hoping to have my grandmother's poly knit rail fence finished but I didn't have any fabric that goes with the front and the wild 70s backing flannel, so it will have to be an April finish, unless the fabric gets here tomorrow.
I broke not one but TWO sewing machines this week.
Waiting on brushes for my dear old 15-91 and hoping that's all it is.
The little "plastic" machine I used only for applique and buttonholes is no real loss, but I do need to find another machine that will do those stitches.
