    Thanks again QuilterMomma (#1085) for your encouragement, I did the stamped hand cross stitched embroidering last summer while doing my summer grand kids sitting in Georgia. That was the only thing that kept me sane.

    DJ, thanks for that free pattern link and your quilt and pillows are really cute.

    Wildyard (Linda, #1082), that idea of the baby clothing quilt sounds great, may be something I might want to play with the last great-grand, cause she is growing so fast.

    Happy Mother's day everyone

    Sophie2, those bags are adorable.

    DJ, love how you used that wander fabric, perfect way to show it off.

    letawellman, that is such a cute quilt.

    Great finishes everyone.

    Lovely quilts, Cherry! Hand quilting provides a very pretty finish. Thanks for the pix. Toot, Toot and congratulations on your 2 UFO finishes.

Will just keep plugging along. This thread has really helped me get some done.

    I have to finish the binding, which I'll do tonight, so I consider this one FINISHED!!

    Thank you Janice, for recognizing that my finishes are hand quilted. It's been lots of fun going back to ole school tactics to finish. I got a couple more UFO's that I am planning that way. Happy Mother's day to you. Happy sewing all

    Default UFO completed!

    Hey all, I have a UFO finish for May. This one was started in either late 2015 or early 2016, and is all from scraps. After I got 4 blocks put together I realized I didn't have enough of one of the fabrics in my scrap pile. My design wall at the time was too small to lay it out and figure out what to do to get around the not enough fabric problem, and I got frustrated with it. So it got thrown on the UFO pile and completely forgotten about until last week when I was looking for a UFO other than the 2 that were supposed to be my next finishes LOL.
    35 1/2 inches square.
    first pic is front, 2nd is back
