Allspots! Nice to see you back here with a wonderful UFO finish. Love the fabrics and colors. You may have had difficulties with it but it looks like you overcame them. Congratulations and TOOT, TOOT!
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!

I will soon have a finish (hopefully!). I need to make a label and attach it and fix a small seam that looks like it may come undone.
I have also started quilting another quilt. That may take most of the month....or longer!

Allspot #1210, that a great finish, glad see you back, hoping to see what you are working on now.
Janice, I asked in a earlier post, but maybe you explained your picture of your new icon, I must have missed it? I know we are all busy with trying to get these UFO off the table and really don't have time to repeat ourselves. Just curious. Trying to prep a vintage motif of a top that is one those charity quilts. Once again that's another story.
Happy sewing everyone

Anne - your garlic knots quilt is quite striking. I really like the design.
Allspots - your quilt is very nice. And I can imagine it was a pain to go together with all those small pieces.
I have three finishes. These were easy in that I had already quilted them so just needed to finish the binding. It always feels so good to have a quilt completely finished!
The blue lattice was made at a quilt retreat in 2014 from blue squares left on the free table. I snatched them up and made this easy quilt.
Bright Stars and the Teal scrappy were Mystery Train quilt rides led by Judy on this board. They are several years old -- 2 or 3 at least.
