you know you have them. Lurking in closets, hiding in bins, under tables, in cupboards...come on bring them out and lets get them done.
I am confessing about my UFO's and I really want to get them done.
I actually started last night making progress last night .
Itis was probably my oldest UFO. I made this tree skirts years ago, probably 10, can't remember exactly. I put it together, did a bit our outline stitching and then that is it. It was used under my tree for many years unfinished. Last year it wasn't even put away with the Christmas decorations but sat in my UFO bin. How sad is that.

Last night I tackled quilting it, closing up the seams, and tidying it up. first finish of 2013!!!!

Hexies - well I always said this would be a life time quilt. I have lots of hexie flowers completed, but ran into a wall when I went to put it together.
I actually don't feel to bad about my list. I just need to do many hours of quilting in the coming months. I want to break out of stippling and work on other types of FMQ. I guess that is one of my quilting goals this year.
If you have made a list of UFO's, link up and see what we all have to tackle this year.
Wow, you're brave to list all your UFO's, Lee! I'm not quite so courageous, but have a similar trend in my house - tops finished and need quilting. I even have the binding done for most of them.
ReplyDeleteI'm going to try to focus on improving my FMQ skills this year too - and have lots of tops to practise on. Maybe I'll start with the neo natal quilt for guild ...
Great job finishing your tree skirt! After 10 years that has to feel GREAT! Good for you!
ReplyDeleteThank for linking up to finish it up Friday!
Ooh I only have a couple of UFOs thankfully - and that list is one less after I put the binding on one of the quilts. Good luck with getting them all done...making a list is a good start to setting and achieving a goal!
ReplyDeleteHere I have thought all these years that I am the only one with stacks and stacks of uncompleted projects to the point that I have donated some of them to charity stores because I didnt think I would ever finish them. I still have a couple or three of UFO's that are more important to me and I will eventually either finish them or start working on them again.
