ckcowl - that is so frustrating! I am filled with admiration that you knew just how to solve the problem, though. You rock! Hope your machine shows up in a hurry so you can get this one off your UFO list. :-)

Stick a fork in me - I am done...with one. 4 more to go. Finished the bindIng tonight while waiting for nonexsistant trick or treaters (we live on a busy road. Nobody comes - but just in case...). Yes this is the same picture I posted before without the binding.

One more just needs binding and 3 more tops in the wings waiting for full treatment.

I'm not letting myself start anything new until the pile is whittled down. But I am making some box bags and totes from stash to scratch the piecing itch.

Anyway- I really like this one. Came out cute!

I have a stack of smallish quilts to get quilted, and the good news is my work schedule has changed so I might actually manage to get that stack knocked out. I’m feeling positive about getting things done

Rff; wonderful. Sometimes discipline is necessary to finish.

Rff - that is a great quilt - love the fabric and love the pattern! Another one for my inspiration board. :-)

Here is my finished UFO - I talked about it on the Finishing All the Quilt Tops thread (post #39 I think). To the best of my recollection, I'd say this was started in about 1994-95. Finished size is about 60"x74". I'm really looking forward to seeing it in use at long last! One of the nice things about having a quilt with "issues" is that I'm not feeling the usual anxiety about potential damage. Tee hee!

i love your finish! It turned out great. It also inspires me to dig out that really old ufo I have in a file box that I had pretty much given up on- but have too much money wrapped up in to just get rid of it. Maybe this winter will ( finally) be the year I get it out and finish it. It’s one I started in a class 20 years ago- before the first class we were given a ( homework sheet) with all that we needed to do before the first class- first class we started sewing; then the second class was canceled, then the instructor called the shop and told them she wasn’t going to finish the class- she pretty much took the money and ran- and all the pieces were put in a box. I’ve been irritated about it and overwhelmed by the scope of it. But, it’s time to get over all that— old ufos can be done….
I won’t get it out before the holidays but it can be my - start the new year getting it done .
thank you for showing me yours.

Nice finishes Rff1010 and Gemm!

ckcowl: I understand your feelings about the quilt. It’s just sad that the instructor didn’t complete the class.

I pulled out one UFO. As I was holding it up and wondering if I should add borders, I saw a small pinhole of light through one of the tiny pieces. Grrrr! How did I ever miss that when it had 4 seams all around it? 🤷‍♀️ It will be easy enough to open the seams and, thankfully, I have an extra bit of the batik fabric to replace it.

Hi I've been AWOL...like to see everyone's finishes. Creative uses for everything.

Another finish for November. My piecing got away from me and I have 3 more in the "wings"

I bought the green and white in someone's stash and it was 3 yards of 1 and 2 of another...while the pattern is a bit old fashioned for my tastes - it's perfect for my "elderly in body but her brain still thinks she's 18" aunt. The blocks are a simplified "Cats Cradle" . The pieced back includes 3 leftover Fan blocks from my cousin's wedding quilt. Size 70 x 70.

Where the heck did the put the attach images button. It used to be around here somewhere. And when did I become a senior member?

Chalk up another November finish. I just finished my 1-year old Saturday Sampler UFO. Yay! :thumbup: --Just in time to pick up my last block and finishing kits for the two Saturday Samplers I joined this past year. Now let's see if these two take 6-months and a year to finish. :rolleyes:


Okay, trying the picture again.
... and again.
Not sure what is going on, but I will try to post the pictures later.
