Yes, it does because it was the intent on making the quilt.

We must keep plugging away, but alas I ponied up to the FWPonyClub sew along on the board. I'm entering a little late as they started first week of Jan, but hope the sew along keeps me on track.
Linda--glad to hear you are back sewing again, hope your "time off" allowed you to do some other quilt related things.

Well, first of all, I think that the rule is, if you consider it a UFO, then it counts. There are no other rules about it so far as I know.
I thought I'd take a break to rest my knee and show you all where I am on the quilt. I am ready to add the outer borders but here is how it looks so far:

Those primary colors sure spiced up your quilt, Linda!!

Linda, that looks great!!

Thanks for the kind words! I now have the outside borders sewn on and am debating adding a 2.5" scrappy border from all the fabrics that frame the tshirt squares.
This would never be my choice of colors but I know the person I am making it for is going to love it. And that is what matters!

Wildyard- That's the happiest T-shirt quilt I've ever seen!
Oksewglad- Your're right about the PC cutting into time with my UFO's, yet seeing everyone's getting done is keeping me on track w/my DGSon's quilt. So I'm working on the PC quilt, my cousins quilt, & my DGSon's quilt. Ya'll are keeping me on track! Thanks!

I started this "quick" and "easy" project in November to celebrate completing a UFO. 1 off the list, 1 on the list I thought.

Pattern: Summer in the Park; Missouri Star Quilt Co. video tutorial using "only" a jelly roll paired with a light fabric. Sew into tubes and rotary cut...easy right?

Strip sewing was easy. Rotary cutting was easy. Pressing...painful. Squaring them up...painful. Matching the points almost caused a heart attack! And then...I laid the pattern out on the floor and could barely even see it! What to do? What to do? Pack it up, that's what = UFO

I know, try some sashing. Shop, shop, shop some more and purchase fabulous sashing. No time to work on that now. Pack it up.

Now what for borders? Shop, shop, shop and order coordinating paisley print ...that looks hideous with the rest of it. Ugh! Pack it up.

Backing? I know. Use hideous paisley that didn't work for borders! Check.

If I could just figure out those borders, this will still be the fastest top I have ever completed!

If it does, I'll have to add about 2 dozen more to my UFO list
I do sort of count them as WIPs since I did really plan to make them when I purchased the kits.

Today I got some more done on my Sis's BD quilt. This looked like such a straightforward quilt when I started. It's taking so much more than I expected time wise. I satin stirched around 31 one inch squares today and have 31 to go. Not hard - just tedious. The rest should go at a faster pace, I hope.
