I have not been on here in several months, but I did finish two UFOs. Just need to take photos. I have a pile of quilts to be finished before I retire in December. I want to gift my nearest and dearest colleagues with something quilty. They have been so patient with me and my obsession. So, the result is I have not delved into my UFO basket. Did pull one out to use as a colleague gift. Good for me! Just wanted 'yall to know that I have not disappeared only had my nose to the sewing machine but not on our particular thread (Tee-Hee, Thread!) UFO's.

Terrific UFO finish, QM. It's beautiful. 
Congrats and Toot, Toot![QUOTE=QuilterMomma;7830485][ATTACH=CONFIG]573575[/ATTACH]Here is the one Boom 17 swap that I did. I even used scrappy binding. I love the Irish Chain setting blocks, made them so much more cohesive. Yeah, another UFO done for me. Now onto the next one that is on the design wall as we type. It is another scrappy that I started last April, 2016.[/QUOTE]

QuilterMomma, #1140, that's another one of your gorgeous productions that Boom 17 is out of this world.
WMUTeach, #1143, congratulations on your up coming retirement
For myself, I am setting the format for my 'viral quilting weekend,' happy sewing everyone.

Cute rug....chains rely pull the Boom quilt together...nice job.
Just got back from loving our new twin grandsons...a sink full of dishes, an overgrown lawn, and garden work to do equals no sewing!

Good morning, while I am on the board just thought that I would stop at this point and wish everyone a good sewing holiday, rained overnight in Kansas and hope that it didn't dampen too many plans. I hopefully plan to get started on the two UFO's that I want to DSM quilt. It's a good day for it. The sun is coming up and that puts a lot light in this small apartment. (I'm a empty-nester), My DGD and her family are on vacation so I don't have to stop and go visit them. Maybe I can pry myself from the key board and get some sewing completed.
Happy Sewing everyone

I would love to spend some time sewing; however all the yard work is calling my name, so unless it rains I will be outdoors trying to get caught up on everything from sun up to sun down.
Happy Memorial Day everyone.
