February Finishing Stitches

We are almost a week into Feb already! Amazing! Time flies when you are having fun… or moving countries… 🙂 So it is well and truly time to get the Feb Finishing Stitches going…
Alice and I had a chat and we decided that since there are a lot of UFO challenges out there, we are going to change ours to ANY finish, not just ufo’s. Of course I will still try to get ufo’s done, but at the moment they are all on a slow boat somewhere, so I have a few months reprieve 🙂 I have plenty of things with me that need finishing and looking around my new house, I see lots of things that I could be sewing for it. So the challenge is as follows:
Part A – Finish any craft project – big, small, made of paper, wool, fabric, paint, whatever. It does have to be completely finished though – e.g. a quilt is finished when all the threads are tucked away and the binding on 🙂 Just finishing a top, does not count. OK? Ok.
Part B – this is only for quilters I’m afraid. It is to finish a BLOCK for ANY quilt (UFO or just started). The idea is to finish the bigger projects, we divide them into smaller goals. You can work out what your definition of a block is. Small block, big block, stitched block, applique…
Please let me know when you finish something for either Part A or B, by leaving a comment on any post or sending me an email, and either send me a pic or point me to a pic on your blog that I can pinch.
You can join in on one or both 🙂
Leave a comment on this blog post if you want to join in this month or email me.
I’m off to do some yoyos… 🙂
PS Go to Alice’s blog to see who won the charm pack for January!
Of course I join….. haha….
Hasn't taken you long to settle into your stride… are you superwoman or what??? Hope the weather there is a bit more stable??

Like you I am in the process of moving and sorting my projects. What did I find–a finished quilt top ready to be quilted. I made it ten years ago. It is now quilted and waiting for me to bind it. I hope not another ten years.
Hi Jean! Nice to meet you 🙂 Well done for quilting your quilt and hope you get the binding done soon! Let us know when it is done!!

I'm happy to be able to report three finishes for Part A (and a new project, but it's just a little one). I posted about them on my blog.
Please do put me in the February Finishing Stitches if you haven't already. Thanks!
