    Say, two of my UFO's are rag quilt jackets for my grand-daughters. Would they count even though they are not techniquely quilts?

    Maybe I'll take some pictures later this week. But basically it's a pile of blocks that all look the same right now Once I get going on the rows, then I'll start to see some actual progress.

    It's a single Irish chain that I am making entirely by hand. I like doing it by hand if I can, even though it does take longer.

    Yes Rita, they count as UFOs, because they are projects started and not finished. At least according to my daughter they count. She counted all those on my list. You could finish those for Christmas before they outgrow them.

    No new blocks since last time I was here. I've got a really important presentation tomorrow, so I've been working on that for two days straight. I had a 'dress rehearsal' tonight, practising it out loud, and it didn't flow very well. Hopefully it will go better tomorrow when it's for real!

    Afterwards I'll go home and back to my blocks. It's a simple pattern and hand piecing always calms me down and gives my brain a break. I'll also search out my camera to take a picture for you all!

    25 blocks out of 50 are finished now! Officially half-way there! Whoohoo!

    I'll post a picture tomorrow, since it's half past midnight here now. Off to bed, more quilting to be done tomorrow.

    So far, my list has only had customer quilts on it, but I finished one tonight and have only one more to do before Christmas! Maybe I will have some time to think about my own UFO's after that! I say a hardy KUDOS to those of you who are finishing things!!!
