    Well...a little late but here is my March UFO finally finished. I started the embroidered squares in 1998. Finished them but never put together the pillow. The only reason it didn't get done in March is I had not idea how to make button holes...but today a friend came over and gave me instructions on my machine! lol So now I am working on Aprils! Yeah!

    That is a lovely pillow and I can see the design working well as a quilt, too...just larger. :-)

    Just joined the Quilting Board and just now came across this UFO challenge so I hope you don't mind my joining in late. I have way too many UFO's to count and can't even get them in a picture as can't back up far enough with the camera, ha ha!! Maybe this is just what I need to get some of them completed....thanks to the member who started this :thumbup:

    This is a UFO started in 2005. When I realized there were some issues with some of the Geese wings, It got demoted to the pile of experience. After I saw the UFO Challenge, I dug this one out and decided to finish it regardless. This is the 3rd UFO I have finished. I think I need a break from these aliens though, even though there are many more to complete.

    Introducing "The Geese are Grounded" or "Disabled Mid-Flight". I really don't remember the true name of the pattern. It only looks out of square because it is pinned to the drapery.

    Flying Geese, but barely
