    Janice McC, I really like your quilt pattern, Garlic Knots with your background fabric selection. See pretty and the day you took the pic looks wonderful. Thanks for sharing.

    Hi BugLady, it's a great quilt but the finish is Anne2016's. You can see her original post at #1177.

    Since it's now June 3, I'd better give you last month's tally. We had a total of 31 UFO finishes, an average of one per day. Congratulations go to Jaba, Letawellman, Grinch, Cherrybsixty, Sophie2, DJ, Rryder, Quiltermomma, WMUTeach, Kassaundra, Anne2016 and Belfybat.

    That brings this year's total to 133! Way to go! Toot, Toot to everyone


    ​Who will have the first finish of June???

    I don't know who will have the first finish, but I do know who won't!!!! lol Since I'm working on a WIP instead of a badly needed (read older) UFO. After I finish this WIP I am working on now, I think my next UFO will be an URR / Doctor Who (yes the same quilt) that I started about 6ish years ago (maybe longer)

    I've got one that's close, just need to decide how I want to quilt the borders then bind it. Maybe by mid week it'll be done. Also have one that's sandwiched and ready to go after that one's done! Then I've got to get back into those collaborative pieces before my collaborator disowns me

    Janice, I was trying to let someone else go first since I was last but, seems like no one else is quite ready. I just finish the binding on another one of those 2015 charity quilts that my cousin and I were working. This one is a collective effort. My cousin pieced the top and I did the quilting and the binding. It usually works the other way around. She has been struggling with some health issues lately and has became a little limited. So I decided that I would step up a little. Once again, I will post pix later.

    Happy sewing everyone

    I've managed to bind two more quilts since Thursday and have another half-way done. We're not supposed to have high winds today so I'll take them outside and photograph them this afternoon. I feel like I'm finally catching up!

    Been 6 months since my last UFO finish, but this one is finally completely done! This project was 33" inches of pure, pain-in-the-neck, nothing "seamed" to go right, trying my patience and persistence to the last stitch. The blocks weren't difficult, but I apparently chose fabrics that just did not want to work together and easily became distorted. Glad to call this one D.O.N.E!
