    The quilt I am working on is a UFO, so I will have a finish by Monday, I hope. I just finished the top today and have to make the back and bind it still. It's a Baby's First Year quilt, my first time to try something like this, and has given me a fair share of issues. But the top is done so it should be smooth sailing from here.

    The "baby" of this quilt is going on 2.5 years so I've had the beginning of the quilt done since he was just past 1.

    I finished a donated UFO. One row was completely finished along with 3 partial rows and all of the blocks although I needed to make a few blocks to finish the pattern. I matched them the best I could from my stash. There are many more blocks but I will do a different pattern with them.

    retiredteacher09...congrats on the finishes. One of my favorite things to do is to finish donated UFOs.

    Mighty quiet around here this month! My goodness, I'm the last one who should say anything since I've not put a stitch in my UFOs in at least a month. . Well, if we aren't doing much UFO work, I just hope we're all enjoying our summer. School starts up here in just a couple of weeks, the beginning of August. I can hardly believe it but then my days of living by the school calendar are over.

    Enjoy your weekend!

    Well, I have a non-quilt UFO finish to post. I wanted to be working on my quilt, but health issues are keeping me from it so I'm here online instead. I actually thought I had already posted this finish but searched and can't find it. It's a wall hanging I made for my granddaughter from her collection of karate belts she earned before moving her attention and focus to dancing. I wove them into a badge-shaped wall hanging and I'm very pleased with it.
