Hi everyone: According to the Board, we had one completed UFO in October, bringing our total up to 210! We've just got a couple more months in 2014 to crank these out. Keep up the good work, everyone!

Lisa: Anyone can join at any time, all are welcome. There are actually two related threads. One is to show your completed UFOs and the other is to talk about your progress. This challenge has been going on for several years so some one will start new threads for 2015. Looking forward to seeing your work!

Lisa: Seriously, welcome to the group! It's been just the kick in the pants that I have needed to get UFOs done. Please post your completed UFOs here so we can oooh and aaaah over them and count them toward our total (which means nothing, other than to show how much progress is being made).
PHDs? No clue...

Farmer's Wife finished - guess I posted on wrong board...
My Farmers Wife quilt started w/a group on here in 2009? is now completed & on my bed. I was all set to custom quilt each block but decided to use an all over pantograph called "Leaf Pile" that just felt like it went with the quilt. I used a brown thread matching the sashing & backing brown and am really quite pleased with how it turned out - this is for me, to be used on my bed - not going to be judged in a show.... And this from an old school hand quilter that just can't do it by hand anymore. Even machine stitched the binding - a first.

Jo: A masterpiece! Thank you for sharing your quilting decisions. I really like the graceful curves. Then there's the way it looks on your bed. I think that tailored bed skirt is just beautiful and the color perfect. What a great addition to any bedroom.

Jo that is a work of art. The quilting is just perfect for it, too. I so admire anyone who has completed a FW quilt. Not even on my bucket list because I don't think I can live long enough. Will be happy just finishing my already started ufo's and plan to just admire people like you who have completed TFW. Your backing is a quilt in itself, too!
