Finished a couple more runners today...tops were finished last year. They're both scrappies. The blue doesn't show the colors well; maybe the lighting? The back of it is a light blue basketweave fabric. The sunflowers is the bee runner backing.

Janice, do we need to do a "roll call tally", to ensure you have the current number of UFO's completed?
If so, for me, I've completed 5 since the beginning of the year.
Which I'm really proud of, actually. My goal is to complete at least 2 per month. Hmmm, guess that means I need to knock out one of the yard sale quilts if I'm going to get #2 for February completed.

Hmmm, interesting idea, Leta. Thanks. But while my low level OCD says "yes" to the roll-call tally, I'm going to use my more sane self and say, uh, no way! I check and double check as I go along, keeping a list of every finish, the poster's board name, the post #, whether or not there's a picture, a quick description of the finish and then the post # I write every couple of weeks to acknowledge the recent finishes. (OCD much?) So, basically, I ask if anyone posts a finish and you do NOT see a "Toot Toot" pop up within 3 or 4 days, let me know. (Everyone gets a Toot, Toot individually and then when I give the newest tally, I sum up who's had a finish since my last tally post.) If I haven't toot, tooted, I may not have your finish. Also, try to remember to clearly state your finish is a "UFO finish". As some of us are posting progress pix or finishes that are not UFOs, it's very easy for me to mistake a unmarked ufo finish as something other than that. It'll keep me from having to double check with you before I add the item to the UFO finishes tally.
Thanks everyone!
PS. Leta, I've got you at 5 finishes (fabulous!!!) but only 4 acknowledgements so far...

Then I'll add nine to the UFO count! Wow.
Janice all of them are from 1 1/2 years to 6 months old. Glad I'm getting a chance to get them done. I usually don't until I want to use a runner or mat. Have 19 quilts, 2 more runner's and a large table topper waiting for me to get done. All the quilts have to be quilted first. The runner's and the topper I finished quilting today and put the binding on. Those need the binding hand sewn.

Letawellman, yes we are over 100! Will soon post a tally and see who put us over the 100 mark.
In the meantime, TOOT TOOT for your finish on Glory. Wow, this is just so pretty. Congratulations!

JulieR, TOOT, TOOT on your 3 UFO finishes! How wonderful that they are also quilts for charity. 
Lovely!
Lovely!Turned in 3 finishes at the charity quilt group gathering yesterday. Unfortunately, I only remembered to take pictures of 1 of them. Another was a a pink one identical and the third was a panel. You probably can't see from the picture, but there are little zoo animals in the blue print fabric.
