I'm trying to get a finish but got way-laid for new dresser scarves (runners) for the new baby room. Almost done piecing with one set and one other set to go. Then quilt them so they can be on the plane with me in 12 days. Have a customer quilt to quilt and sew the binding for her before I leave. I need to have more hours in the day....

I like all of the lovely finishes. Tiambing, I love your colors on your quilt. I started that same mystery, it's still a UFOs. Maybe finish next few months.
Fraew,such a lovely mini quilt.
I like your quilts silliness, so pretty.
I had planned to work on 2 small ufo's, over the next 3 days, but I can't get into my sewing room for another few days. We are putting tile on our entryway, which blocks my sewing room. I still plan to finish at least one project before the end of the month. We will wait and see.
Happy sewing and quilting everyone.

Evolution, great way to think of it. Beautiful 21 year old UFO finish! It definitely must feel good to be done with this one! Toot, Toot Fraew!
Done!
This mini started as a maxi (bed size) in '95. It finally matured to "mini" size last year. Sometimes you just have do what the project wants you to do. I sent it to the fabulous Charisma for quilting...just to get it off the naughty list. So toot toot and woo hoo! Done!
