    Well I just got done sending my post (basically just copied last years with a minor change) to start the new UFO thread. I'm just waiting for the QB personal to start it tomorrow. Or tell me I need to edit it more. But anyway, the great news "I'm the new UFO person, (unsure the title name). Anyway we will be continuing this threat next year (basically tomorrow). So look at the QB's Challenge & Contest. I'm hoping you will all have a look and join in on this train. It will be the 2018 UFO Challenge of the Month thread.

    You can continue to post here for this years finishes. Like Janice stated, she will be give a final total in a few more days.

    Have a save and enjoyable New Years!!!!

    Woohoo! Looking forward to being onboard again for next year. This thread is such a great motivator

    Beautiful finishes Kristakz, I don't think I could ever count on making a pieced border to fit that accurately and the blue colours are a perfect match.
    That is some very special birch wood fabric too, I've never seen fabric like it - beautiful.
    Happy New Year all

    Beautiful UFO finishes, Kristakz. Cardinals are my favorite birds so the second one really calls to me! Thank you for sharing the pix. Congratulations and Toot, Toot!

Second is from a set of fat quarters I bought a few years ago. Finally decided to do something with them - and now I have my January window display.

    I see that neither of these photos have binding on them. Hopefully you'll take my word for the fact that they are 100% finished and in use.

    Good morning and Happy New Year train riders!

    Happylab's 2018 UFO Challenge post can be found here: 2018 UFO Challenge of the Month Please be sure to check it out and welcome her as your new Engineer of this wonderful train ride.

    I'll do a final post in a day or two in case any additional 2017 finishes are posted. I will see you over on the 2018 challenge thread. I still have many UFOs to complete so I hope to add a few finishes for next year, oops, this year! In the meantime, I'm hoping there might be another one or two that post in the next day so please check back one final time for the official 2017 Tally.

    Krista...I like those. The reindeer one is beautiful! I am bookmarking all panel quilts for inspiration. I have lots of panels which I plan to enlarge for quilts in 2018.
