2011 ufo wrap up

1. Hawaiian quilt- This quilt I have been working on FOREVER.  I am very frustrated with it.  On the other hand it is potentially nearly done because it has the binding nearly on.  I still feel like it needs to be quilted more. Updated December 2011:  Although this is technically a finished piece, I don’t …

November ufo

Well, yes, I finished my November ufo!  I hope it counts that I finished it in April, but done is done. Here it is! December’s ufo will be more of a problem.  It is a grandmother’s flower garden.  I have a lot of other projects with deadlines this month so I’m not sure I can finish a hand sewn top. We’ll …

Valentine’s quilt

I have been working on this quilt for a year and finally it is done!  I am so excited. It is one of the most girly quilts I have ever made and I think that is why I liked working on it so much.  I made it for my little niece, Mary Beth.  She is …

2011 ufo challenge

I found this 2010 UFO Challenge by Patchwork Times. I love the idea of tying up loose strings, but I have a lot of anxiety.  Will I finish all these projects?  Will I finish any of these projects?  Some of these projects are not quilts, so I hope that Patchwork Times doesn’t mind my stretching …

patches finally done

Finally I felt I had enough patches to make this quilt.  I laid them all out on the bed.  I had 49 patches.  This would be enough to make a nice sized quilt.  Then, I brought in the critic AKA my husband.  He removed almost half of my squares that he felt didn’t fit in and I …

storm

Busy, busy week.  Last week there was a big snow storm, the first one of the seasons.  It made me really count my blessings so here they are: We only lost power for a few hours. I got a lot of work done on a quilt I have been working on. Everyone is well. Anyway, …
